summer

The only time I want to read genre-specific book is during summer and we all know that the season is all about contemporary reading. Last year, Renae’s Summer 2013 Reading Project inspired me to do a (93) Days of Summer reading project from June 21st till September 21st. I ended up reading 13 out of the 36 books I chose to read. Despite having read some really good contemporaries this year, I wanted to do it again because it’s so much fun (and because it’s way past time I read some of the popular titles).

Yeah, I can’t believe I haven’t read these either but every book has its right time to be read, right? Now where to start…

I don’t think I need reasons for any of these except that I’ll be reading Emily Murdoch’s If You Find Me because of Judith‘s book-pushing.

Y’know how there are some books that you just want to read? Well, these four are those for me because I love road trip, music, boarding school, and a bittersweet love story books.

And finally, what’s summer reading without reading the best 2014 has to offer?

So out of these 25, I plan to read at least 12. Have any must-reads of these must-reads? Let me know below!

Ever since summer started this year, I’ve been drifting more towards YA contemporaries when it comes to reading. Attracted towards YA, I read three YA contemporaries back to back and then I read Renae’s post about her Summer 2013 Reading Project. A similar idea formed in my head.

From 21st June 2013 to 21st September 2013, I’ll gorge on as much YA contemporary books as I can. I’ll probably try to switch it up between a latest read and a classic contemporary like right now I’m reading both: OCD Love Story and The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight which is why these are in different columns below. I’ve chosen 36 books for reading in summer (eep!) however, I might add some bonus reads if I happen to buy them or the mood struck.

Phew. But I’m more excited than daunted by the random books I just took from Goodreads and my to-read list. Also, I want to tackle that Goodreads Challenge; it mocks me every single day. As a bonus, this also gives me an excuse to buy MOAR books (nom nom).
