12 Timeless Summer Reads

Summer is the time where every book read should be a book suitable for the beach and/or be able to be paired with an ice cold cocktail. For me, that means it’s either romantic, thrilling, magical, or, my favourite: mythology based. Last year I tackled Percy Jackson, the year before was The Song of Achilles and Circe, and so on it goes. I read most of my mythological and thrilling books in the summer, but usually there’s some room for a classic or two as well. So I’ve compiled a list of books that I deem perfect for summer weather and that I have enjoyed immensely in summers past. There’s just something about those hazy warm summer reads that stick in your head forever.
