Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and Bookish. Today’s post is:
Ten Books I Plan To Have In My Beach Bag This Summer or Ten Books I Think Make Great Beach Reads”
I don’t believe in specifically labeling books as beach reading. I mean, the Bible can be considered as beach reading. It is just any book you decide to read not only at the beach but in the summer time. So these are the books that I will be reading this summer:
The Royal We by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan
The World Before Us by Aislinn Hunter
Wanderlust: A History of Walking by Rebecca Solnit
The London Train by Tessa Hadley
Sidney Chambers and The Forgiveness of Sins by James Runice
The Secret of Magic by Deborah Johnson
The Guest Cottage by Nancy Thayer
Where They Found Her by Kimberly McCreight
Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline
The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins
What are you fellow readers going to read this summer?
I love The Moonstone! Wilkie’s books are such fun and this is one of my favorites of his.
I just posted a twenty book list at http://wp.me/pZnGI-nf
Great summer reading list! I am not sure if mine is definite! I always change my mind so my list is never definite. it depends on what mood I am reading wise.
LOL. It took me about two hours to finally make up my mind which books to put on it. I’m like you and I certainly hadn’t planned that far in advance. I had about ten ‘for sures’ because they were scheduled at book groups or for other Challenges. It was the other half that took some planning.
Great list! I’m actually about to be starting Sidney Chambers and the Shadow of Death. I loved Grantchester so I’m hoping the source material is just as good or better! 🙂
Check out my TTT.
Thanks! Your list looks great too! Especially Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell & The Red Queen. I heard a lot about those. The Sidney Chamber series is really good. The first book will be predictable since most of the episodes of the 1st season of Grantchester was based off that book but the rest provide great mystery short stories, like Sherlock Holmes. Here is my review of the book series so far: https://cupofteawiththatbookplease.wordpress.com/2015/03/30/the-grantchester-mysteries-a-unique-british-mystery/
I haven’t heard of a lot of these books before so I looked them up on Goodreads. Definitely just added a whole bunch to my TBR list. Great job!
Glad to be of service!
Love the covers.
I thought Orphan Train was really good!! Hope you enjoy it!!
Thanks!
