Simple summer pleasures — sunshine, a beautiful view, a nice breeze, and a good book. There's nothing better than reading at the beach. Here are three books I have enjoyed so far this summer.
The Weird Sisters, by Eleanor Brown, is about three very different sisters who return to their childhood home, reuniting an eccentric family.
The Flight of Gemma Hardy, by Margot Livesey, is an adventure about a headstrong orphan’s struggle to claim a place for herself in the world.
The Borrower, by Rebecca Makkai, is the tale of a children’s librarian who finds herself both kidnapper and kidnapped when her favorite ten-year-old patron runs away from home.
Most afternoons, I take a 30-minute break from work and head down the road with a book to this lovely spot. During the week, I usually have the whole beach to myself. However, next week, I'll be doing some poolside reading. John has a business trip to a lovely resort in Orange County, California. And I'm tagging along. Yay!
What have you been reading this summer?

WOW! Life's hard huh Susan. LOL. You have a beautiful place to read. Now you'll be "California Dreaming". Have fun and enjoy your trip.
