So, if you're reading this, I'm at the beach (I know; be jealous.) And I figured there was a good chance one (or more) of you are going to the beach this summer. So I'm just going to crank out a few books that are fabulous for sitting in the sun with.
I would be doing this list zero justice if I didn't start it off with a romance novel. Really, it's the first thing that everyone thinks of when they think beach read. What's more, this is one of the better romance novels out there (as far as these things go.) You can read our review of it, or just pick up a copy. After all, why not read a little smut on the beach? What else do you have to do?
It's very rare these days that you get a book that's just ONE book. No Sequels, no trilogies, just one. And while Stargirl does, technically, have a sequel, it was so terrible I couldn't get pack chapter four. So I like to pretend it doesn't exist. But Stargirl is one of the best, most touching books about love and high school and "fitting in" that you can find. It's fairly short, fairly uncomplicated and entirely wonderful.
This book is fun and a fast read. It's just a bunch of quotes of really odd things Jen Campbell has heard over the years, working at a bookstore. No plot, no need to pay a lot of attention and you can open it anywhere and start reading, which makes for a perfect beach read.
Sometimes, a little chicklit is all you need. Confessions of a Shopaholic is funny, ridiculous with just the right amount of romance thrown in to make it a perfect beach read. You can't help but love Becky Bloomwood, despite all the messes she seems to get into.
