Christmas time is officially here!  Before we know it, Santa will be coming down the chimneys of good little boys and girls.  And nothing like the holiday season to drool over bookish things.  Because there is nothing better than reading books.  So having things ABOUT books — well that my friends is just spectacular!

It’s Top 10 Tuesday (hosted at The Broke and the Bookish) and the topic is:

TOP TEN BEACH READS

So, without further ado…

Five Favorite Beach Reads

1. Jemima J by Jane Green

Why? A sweet, lighthearted read about a woman who changes her life and learns who she really is.

2. Skinny Bitch in Love by Kim Barnouin

Why? A kick-butt girl takes charge of her life and career — and finds her true opposite in love.

3. The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks

Why? Sappy romance = ultimate beach read.  And seriously, it is probably against the law for Nicholas Sparks NOT to be on a beach reads list.

4. Startdust by Neil Gaiman

Why? Because it’s Neil Gaiman. And magic. And Neil Gaiman

5. Surface by Jody & Jayme Morse

Why? Sirens, beaches, and hot guys

Five Books I Plan to Read by the Pool
aka My version of the beach

1. Paper Towns by John Green

Why? Because John Green.

2. The Disenchantments

Why? Road trips, rock and roll, romance, and figuring it all out

3. Wanderlove by Kirsten Hubbard

Why? So I can live vicariously through a world traveler.

4. Saving June by Hannah Harrington

Why? Because I’ve wanted to read for SO long.

5. The Summer I Became a Nerd by Leah Rae Miller

Why? A girl who hides her nerdiness (and obsession of comic books) to fit in

So there you go!  What are some of YOUR favorite beach/summer reads?

Much love,
