Oh summertime! The weather is warm, the days are slower, and we all finally have time to read those books we haven’t had time to get around to. Everyone looks forward to taking a few days off work, relaxing in the sun, and being in the company of a great summer read. This summer why not forgo the usual best seller and jump into the wonderful world of short stories and collected essays.
Below I have listed a few books that I recommend you check out!
The Stories of John Cheever by John Cheever
The Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway by Ernest Hemingway
Backwards in High Heels: The Impossible Art of Being Female by Tania Kindersley and Sarah Vine
This summer I will be reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson. I must admit I am not usually one to read a collection of essays or classic literature during the summer; however, I recently saw the trailer for the film adaptation of Larsson’s book and it looked awesome, so I am going to read it before I see the film.
Happy reading!
Delicious list. Thank you.
I love The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo – the whole series is incredible!
So delighted to have discovered your lovely blog, and madly flattered that you put my book on your summer reads. Just the fillip I need right now. So thank you twice.
So glad you found us too Tania, Thank you!
