My Summer Must Reads

I must admit, I am a bit of a book worm and when
summertime comes, I'm obsessed with finding a good book to lie out in the sun
and enjoy. I thought it was only fitting
to share a few summer reads and rereads with you.
1. ‘The
Fault In Our Stars’- I have previously mentioned this book in a blog post (‘July Favourites’ if you want to check that out Click Here ) but I cannot stress
enough how beautifully written it is. After discovering this book, John Green
has become one of my favourite authors! Since, I have been scouring the book
stores for more of his creations. Anyway, back to the book, it’s a cancer story
but it’s not about cancer. The story revolves around the two main characters
Hazel and Augustus finding their last and only love. The Fault In Our Stars
manages to capture every emotion in the short number of pages. I must admit I
cried A LOT reading this book, which never happens to me. After finding out a
movie was being made I became obsessed! Obviously, I tried to cry gracefully
watching the creation come to life (not sure if I succeeded there), whist the
cinema was filled with silence, apart from the sniffling of the audience
shedding a tear (or a million).
2. ‘Looking
for Alaska’- After discovering the author John Green, I needed to read more of
his literature and this was the next book I found. Undoubtedly, there is
romance involved here! The main character Miles Halter leaves his Florida home
to join a boarding in the hope ‘to seek a Great Perhaps.’ Turns out, he might
just find one, and one which includes a girl, Alaska Young. It is more childish
in my opinion but still a must read!
3. ‘Where
Rainbows End’- or ‘Love, Rosie.’ My final summer read I have recently finished,
is a book by Cecelia Ahem, the writer of the esteemed ‘Ps. I love you.’ I
discovered this book after viewing the trailer for the movie version, featuring
one of my style icons, Lily Collins. This book tells the story of Rosie and Alex,
best friends and secretly in love with each other. It tells the story of their
live through a progression of letters, texts and emails. Of course, I was in
constant anticipation of what was going to happen next with this book in the
hope that through all the dramas, they would be with each other in the end. I
am giving away no spoilers here; I can’t stand it when a book is ruined by that
one person who can’t keep the ending/dramatic twist to themselves.
As you can tell, I love a good love story and could
rave on all day about several other books too, but I do not intend to send you
to sleep.
What are you favourite book reads/rereads?
