Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira
Even in Paradise by Chelsey Philpot (Edelweiss)
When I first heard of Love Letters to the Dead I wasn't sure if it really sounded like my kind of book. However, all the positive reviews I've read in the last while have convinced me to give it a go. I'd love to know what you thought of this one if you've read it.
I'm was so happy to get an early copy of Even in Paradise. It doesn't release until October but the cover just screams summer so I want to read it while the sun is shining!
Get Even by Gretchen McNeil (Edelweiss)
The Lovely and the Lost (The Dispossessed #2) by Page Morgan
Welcome to the Dark House by Laurie Faria Stolarz (Netgalley)
Bought
Animals by Emma Jane Unsworth
To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
I haven't heard much at all about Animals apart from a few good reviews on Goodreads and a mention in Grazia magazine, but it sounds like a very 'me' book so much so that I bought it on release day and plan on getting started very soon.
To All the Boys I've Loved Before is book perfection. I've already read it and it's a new favourite of mine. LOVE.

I always have my sunglasses with me, I love reading contemporaries in the summer time and the first one on my summer reading list is probably The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han :)
ReplyDeleteMy summer reading plans include Bad Brides by Rebecca Chance and the new Janey Fraser, Milly Johnson and Ice Cream at Carringtons by Alexandra Brown
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you loved To All The Boys,...I need to read that one next, I think. I need something NOT twisted and depressing after what I'm reading now. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love your Summer events! Really looking forward to it :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the sound of To All the Boys I've Loved, I need to read it now! I've just read endless positive reviews on it and it sounds like my thing. I hope you enjoy Love letters to the dead as well!
ReplyDeleteJeann @ Happy Indulgence

ReplyDeleteMy summer reading list is so long! Really want to read since you've been gone and second chance summer by Morgan Matson though :)
ReplyDeleteWe don't really go on summer vacations (I know, so sad; but at least I got to read my books at home!!). I recently tweeted a photo of my summer tbr. You can check it out here: https://twitter.com/MichelleSedeno/status/462518553501913088

I always have a pile of books, a sun hat, and a beach towel to drape over my legs so I don't get burnt when I get distracted by a book and loose track of time!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favourite things to do is read on the beach so I always have books in my beach bag. A few of my other essentials are sun tanning oil, chips & candy, and something like a football or frisbee to play with friends. I haven't started my summer reading list quite yet but I'm hoping to read many books!
ReplyDeleteMy summer essentials: Sunblock + Face Mist :)
ReplyDeleteFor books: I'll be reading "Amy and Roger's Epic Detour", "This Song Will Save Your Life" though I'm currently reading "Maybe Someday" :) It's summer here in the Philippines :)
I finished Love Letters this weekend - I absolutely loved it. Lyrical yet gritty - I need to do it justice in my review this week!!
ReplyDeleteOn my every summer reading list are always books from Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han or romance reads in general. This summer I hope to read the rest of the Lunar chronicles since I only read Cinder, The moon and more by Dessen, and a few YA romance novels. I will probably read them on the beach. Thanks for the giveaway :)
ReplyDeleteLook at all those pretty covers. I loved LLttD and To All the Boys. I'm really excited for Dark House and Get Even. Great haul this week!
ReplyDeleteGet Even and Welcome to the Dark House sound amazing. Enjoy them :) My STS
ReplyDeleteEeek! Amazing giveaway! I love Summer reads too and like you have a list. My Top 3 are Open Road Summer, What I Thought Was True and On The Fence I can't wait to get around to them!
ReplyDeleteMy summer reading list is sooo long but a few of them is City of Loss Souls by Cassandra Clare, Paper Towns by John Green, Maze Runner series by James Dashner, and Fangirl!
ReplyDeleteMy reading list for 2014 holiday is "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins, "Divergent" by Veronica Roth and "New England Rocks" by Christina Courtnay! These 3 titles i am desperate to read, as i have herd so much hype about them :)
ReplyDeleteit's approaching winter here in Australia but i guess summer reads will have to make do for the lack of warm weather here lately :/
ReplyDeleteI have some amazing summer reads. Some series are finishing this summer and they are Jennifer Armentout Lux series and Deborah Harkeness A discovery of witch series.
ReplyDeleteMy all time favorite summer reads are Amy and Roger's Epic Detour, Saving Francesca, Along for the Ride and Second Chance Summer.
ReplyDeleteMy Summer reading list is quite ambitious since I'm trying to squeeze in every book I missed during my reading hiatus (thanks to you thesis). I'm also trying to add diversity in my reading so my list is a mixture of ya, classics, and other genres. Right now, I'm reading 'This is What Happy Looks Like' and after finishing this, I'm gonna read 'The Museum of Intangible Things', 'Dangerous Girls' and 'To All the Boys I've Loved Before'. For all time summer reads, Sarah Dessen's books and Jenny Han's are definitely MUST! By the way, The Haim is really cool! Love their My Song 5! :)
ReplyDeleteOpen Road Summer is SO GOOD! :)
ReplyDeleteSince You've Been Gone is my next read. Can't wait to get started!!

Can't wait to see all your lovely reviews. Wait I take it back - it will cost me money ;)
ReplyDeleteSo many books to read, so little time, but this season (were heading into Winter here in Oz) but I'm hoping to read some new and older titles, such as Morgan Matson and Huntley Fitzpatrick's newest novels, Insurgent, and since I've been enjoying them so much lately, some Aussie YA.
ReplyDeleteMy summer read for this year Under the Never Sky trilogy and The Lux series by Jennifer L Armantrout! My beach essentals are a good book, snacks, extra clothes, towel and sunglasses.
ReplyDeleteGosh, I have a long TBR list so I'd probably just keep reading off of that! A nice cold lemonade or some other fruity beverage and sunglasses :-)
ReplyDeleteSo I've just recently taken up reading books again. I rarely read any fiction as I get too tired after studying all the time, I study Medicine. But the last six months or so, I just re-found my love for books. So wonderful! So far, my 2014 Summer Reading List includes the Hunger Games Trilogy, and possibly also Fangirl - I'm about to read your review right now!
ReplyDeleteMy Summer reading list includes the Maze Runner series & The Fault In Our Stars & still want to get through The Milennium Trilogy.
ReplyDeleteMy all time favorite summer read was/is Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen, hands down! It was both a mixture of a light read with heavy topics, which is a love of mine! This summer I plan on reading lots of different books, like Once by Anna Carey, to The Moon and More by Sarah Dessen!
ReplyDeleteMy summer reads are from Susan Elizabeth Phillips,Julie James,Nora Roberts,etc... :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome chance! :)
Since you've been gone! 💕

ReplyDeleteReading list contains one series as of now, Daughter of smoke and bones... I have the first 2 books and will eventually buy book 3. Thanks so much for this chance :D
ReplyDeleteSummer beach bag essentials: sunglasses, sunscreen, lipbalm, and a good book! During the summer I mostly read contemporaries because I just feel like it's the perfect time to do so. Recently though, I read Of Poseidon by Anna Banks which is a mermaid book and it was a light read and I think it's perfect for the summer, too. :D
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to get started on reading Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover :)
ReplyDeleteMy Summer reading list is bound to keep me occupied all the way through the season! It includes Crescendo, Finale, City of Heavenly Fire, the rest of the Lux series and the entire Game of Thrones series:)
