10 More Summery Reading Recommendations
I am Team Summer. Do I want endless Summer? No. I don’t think it would feel as special if I had it all year long. But when you live in a place where is snows (at least flurries) more days out of the year than we get sunshine, you cherish the long days and warm weather. I do love snow and September-December are magical. But January-March are a slog for me mentally.
So, here are some more summery reads to enjoy on the beach or by the pool while the weather is nice. Or if you need a summery moment during the worst days of Winter.

After Hours on Milagro Street by Angelina M. Lopez
Could this cover be more perfect? A poor professor, a brainiac student, and the enemies to lovers trope where they’re forced to work together for a common goal. A perfect summer read!
