A Dream of Summer

It's April!  Spring just started and Summer is right around the corner.  And yet, it was snowing in New York City for a little while yesterday.  So to raise our spirits—and everyone else's who are stuck in this perpetual winter—here is a selection of juicy beach reads full of sunlight, sand, and warmth to help you imagine the better days to come:

Summerlong by Dean Bakopoulos: A deft and hilarious exploration of the simmering tensions beneath the surface of a contented marriage which explode in the bedrooms and backyards of a small town over the course of a long, hot summer. Egalley!

Now please excuse me while I curl up under my desk with a blanket and one of these books and think warm thoughts.
