Top Ten Tuesday – Favorite Summer/Beach Reads in 2018

toptentuesday

Hello lovelies! It feels like forever ago since I’ve done a Top Ten Tuesday post. Anyway, this week’s topic is Books to Read By the Pool/At the Beach so I’ll be listing 10 of my favorite summer/beach reads. If you’ve been following me for a while, then you probably know that I love swoony romances and contemporaries. While summer is not my favorite season (I love the cold weather), I definitely look forward to it all year for one reason — Summer makes me want to read lighthearted, fluffy, adorably cute contemporaries that always make me feel all kinds of happy and I absolutely love it.

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and has been moved to That Artsy Reader Girl since January 16, 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

So, without further ado, let’s take a look at some of my favorite summer/beach reads. I’ll be listing 5 from this year, and 5 of my all time favorites.
