| Favorite Beach Reads
Whether you're going to the beach or staying cool in the A/C at home, here are our staff picks for light, fun books to read! Enjoy a humorous take on motherhood with Momzillas by Jill Kargman. Get whisked away in a well-written romance by Jojo Moyes. Or escape to California in Just Breathe. Once and For All by Sarah Dessen offers a chance at love for the cynical daughter of a wedding planner. Or how about something less lovey-dovey? Try the quirky Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams, the darkly humorous sci-fi novel Redshirts by John Scalzi (perfect for Star Trek fans!), or a light, cozy mystery. Have fun reading this summer! |
