You all read a lot of books this summer? How do we know? Because we asked and you answered.
To mark the end of this lovely season, we asked you to tell us the best book you read this summer. The question generated a long list. Below is a sampling, linked to our reviews, in case you want to consider making one of these summer reads into a fall read. (For more of your picks, check the comments to the article linked above, our Facebook page, and Twitter at the hashtag #pwasksyou.
What seems most unlikely is that only a couple of titles were mentioned twice--Go Set A Watchman and All the Light We Cannot See among them. There are always a few big books, but one of the great things about reading is how esoteric it is, and there are as many books to read as people to read them!
Here are a few of your favorite summer reads:
- In the Unlikely Event by Judy Blume
- Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates
- All the Light We Cannot See Anthony Doer
- Little Pretty Things by Lori Rader-Day
- My Struggle Volume 1 by Karl Ove Knausgaard
- Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee
- Bone Gap by Laura Ruby
- Ordinary Light by Tracy K. Smith
