Chocale, también amo leer en otoño...

Another good summer read would be the Detective John Cooper series. (Crime fiction). A Dish Served Cold, The Dealmaker, and most recently The Devil's Portrait. They will draw you in and not let go.

Here's my summer reading list:
The Horn of Moran by M.L Foreman
The Only Girl in The World by Elisabeth Rodgers
The Vatican Princess by C.W Gortner
The Hidden Lives of Tudor Women by Elizabeth Norton
The Royal Art of Poison by Eleanor Herman
Girls with Sharp Sticks by Suzanne Young
Changeling by Molly Harper

I'm sure I'll be adding more once I finish those lol.

Gosh, I have...so many books...and soooo little time...😵 But for the summer, I think I'll be mostly into graphic novels and the WTNV podcast and book volumes, and maybe some poetry to cool my soul?

(And speaking of poetry, if any of you like poems, maybe check out my collection "Motel 8"?

EXACTLY! I couldnt have said it better. I think that other person thought I was more offended than I was. I was just pointing out that its simply not Summer for the whole world right now, or coming up to it.

Yes I agree.

Lol. This made me smile. So true.

I was also hoping to see another summer reading challenge this year, I really enjoyed doing last years!

This summer (you should pardon the expression!) I hope to relax with some fun books! No challenges, no deadlines, just silliness...
I'm most looking forward to Lisa See's newest The Island of Sea Women...
Some others on my list:
Does This Beach Make Me Look Fat?: True Stories and Confessions, Masquerade, Summer Rental, The Walking Dead, Vol. 4: The Heart's Desire, It’s Not Me, It’s You, Look Alive Twenty-Five, Bundori, Oogy: The Dog Only a Family Could Love, The Probable Future --- and probably a whole bunch more that I haven't even met yet!!

Happy reading, everybody!

1. The Swans of Fifth Avenue
2. Maybe in Another Life

Looking for the rainbow by Ruskin Bond

Perhaps you could start a Goodreads type website in Australia and do your own seasonal readings with others that share your seasons! Best of luck and enjoy.

I made an impulse buy of all 64 Nancy Drew mysteries. I'm going to enjoy reading them for the next couple months and then catch up a little on my TRL.

Some of the books on here are really good!!!

I can not believe summer is around the corner... which gives me more time to catch up with my reading.

My summer reading plans are to read,

1. For horor stories: I Am Behind You, by John Ajvide Lindqvist
2. For Self Development: The 5 Second Rule by Mel Robbins
3. Romantic Suspense: His Hostage by Alexa Riley
and last but not the least
For the Romance, A book from which i usually pic love quote for my beautiful wife
4. Everything We Keep: A Novel.

I am reading Rapture by Lauren Kate and she has really good books it is from the Fallen series and I'm not even finished reading the book.

I am right with you with I am behind you, by john ajvide lindqvist

This summer I want to read cheesy romance books that are light and flowy. I don't want to read something dark and scary but summery and romantic for teen readers. Any suggestions?

Reading all of Deanna Raybourn's books

I'm currently reading a Venice Mystery Series since I visited Venice this spring. It's called the "The Venetian Game" and I've started the sequel called "Vengeance in Venice". I don't usually read mysteries, but my husband has got me started on them. I've got kpop romances lined up, but the Venice series took over. Favorite authors: Marilyn Vix, Lynda Belle, Kate Allure, Vivi Anna, and Anne Rice.

Summer Reading have you tried Author Honor Raconteur? She has 36 books out and a new series will be released in June.

I'll also read whatever "trashy" YA romances that haven't been checked out from the library in years. Maybe this will be the summer I FINALLY get to reading all of Cassandra Clare's books and start the ACOTAR series and Throne of Glass series. Ooh, and finally read The Maze Runner Box Set because that's been sitting on my shelf forever. Of course I'll revisit classics such as Rainbow Rowell's books, V.E. Schwab's books, and works from the likes of Shakespeare and Austen. This will be the time I slay my TBR and start To Kill a Kingdom, because the mermaid/siren theme just screams summer. I have a lot of time over the summer and I'll probably finish most of my reading challenge; I read at least two books a day over the summer. I would also love to find some good anime/manga/light novels, and appreciate recommendations. Happy Summer Reading to all!"

Ok, so after reading your post there's so many things I love there.

I've just finished the Throne of Glass series and it's amazing. Every single book. Some people don't like the first book though and there are some nasty reviews but stick with it.
As for Maas's other series, also really good. I can't choose between them.

"To Kill a Kingdom" is also on my TBR list.

I only watch dubbed anime so I only know a few but I'll list them anyway (in order of preference):

Fairy Tail (childish I know but still really good),
One Piece (also childish and really good),
Blue Exorcist,
Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic,
Akame ga Kill,
Sword Art Online,
Seraph of the End,
The Devil is a Part-Timer,
Food Wars,
Nagi no Asukara,
Chunnibyou demo Koi ga Shitai,
Haganai,
Toradora! ,
Snow White with the Red Hair,
Problem Children are Coming from Another World, Aren't They? ,
Assassination Classroom,
Black Cat,
Masamune-kun no Revenge,
Shakugan no Shana,
Yuri on Ice,
Restaurant to Another World,
Gate,
I'm going to add in Avatar: The Last Airbender even though it's not an anime but is definitely a lot higher up on my list.

As for manga, I've only read the ones of anime that I love. So:
Fairy Tail,
Blue Exorcist,
Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic,
Akame ga Kill and
Food Wars.

When I watched all of the other anime at the top of my list I didn't embrace manga as much but they're on my list of starting.

Happy Summer Reading to you too!

"I will read Harry Potter and The Lunar Chronicles. I'm so happy for my choice." I have never heard of this.

That is an eclectic list.

There are so many books I am looking forward to this year, but the one I am dying for is by Suzanne Halliday - BISHOPS SURRENDER.

I hope so! :D

The common wear in Pakistani dresses would be tunic since it's conjointly the national dress of West Pakistan. it's worn each nonchalantly and as a proper line of dressing. https://www.ceresestore.com/

Am planning to complete some books, which have been lying my bedside for some time.. and hopefully they will be done by the end of this summer. Although am always adding books to my TBR list, i don't know when Ill get to reading any of them.

Becoming
Khullam Khulla: Rishi Kapoor Uncensored
The Kite Runner
Sycamore Row

Reading what ever I can get my hands on, but I refuse to waste time on books that don't do it for me.

I'll be going for a lot of light summer reads. Rom-coms, contemporary, running off somewhere exotic, that sort of thing. Especially as I'm doing that myself and running off to Greece in a few weeks.

summer is always the busiest for me since i live in an a rather touristic part of the country and it's high season... does anyone have any tips on how to make extra time for more reading?? and no, reading at work is near impossible

Something Like Summer makes a charming summer read:

Do you have time to sit down for breakfast? That's when I do most of my reading.

I really wish the logo said Summer instead of Sunner.

Yes, there'll be a summer reading challenge. Glad to hear you're as excited as us about it! Challenge information will be announced at a later date — stay tuned! 😊 📚

super, thanks for the answer, looking forward to it

thank you for replying!i usually dedicate breakfast just the amount of time needed to, you know, just eat. But i think I will consider adjusting and extending it to something more;that way I can fit in some reading.Thank you!

There has been people on the beach (4km) here for the past week but I do live in southern Spain. I am rereading some books I have not read for decades that i know are good. I also want to write a sixth book in the next few months but nothing concrete at the moment.

I just love this shit when it's winter in Australia and I'm currently freezing.

I already have my own list for the summer. The three shelves of books waiting to be read will be the focus of my seasonal reading. GR recommendations just don't work for me.

I’m working on all the Shadowhunters novels. Haven’t read Mortal Instruments yet but I watched the Shadowhunters show while reading the Dark Artifices, so some things mentioned from the Mortal Instruments series I kinda understand, especially characters
