Hey guys! I've been doing a lot of thinking about what I want to read this summer (which there's a ton!) and was curious to know what's on your summer TBR. I know not everyone has summer break, but there's just something about summer that always mentally opens me up to get creative and make a book theme for summer.

I remember one summer I only read books about or with vampires in them! :D Vampire Knight (manga), Anne Rice's first 3 Interview with a Vampire books, Meg Cabot's Insatiable and Overbite (still wait on book 3 meg!!) , and I think I also read A Discovery of Witches . This summer I guess I may also have a theme- Boston Teen Author Fest books. I snagged several galleys at BookExpo and Day of Dialog last week and feel drawn to read those first.

Anyways, enough about me- what are you going to read this summer?

Ashley (ashezbookz) Reading IT right now .. not a YA novel.. I have no reading plans really .. taking it easy as wedding is only 52 days away!!!!!! and we're going away for a week of camping, I'll perhaps request a few books for that trip, unsure what to get though I haven't been watching any of my booktubers videos lately as I always get super long book lists so I'm waiting until nearer the time then I'll watch and request.. still want to read strange the dreamer though - I did read under rose tainted skies and LOVED it so much so wanted more books along those lines.. I also have a few books from my book boxes to read so perhaps I'll read those before I request new ones .. the beauty and the beast retelling, hidden objects (I think, unsure what that's about) and a korean drama based one

IT is such a classic!

Wait, like you're wedding? That's awesome!! Congrats and I hope everything turns out really pretty.

I tried not to have a Summer Reading List, but then I got ARCs for many of Boston Teen Author Fest '17 authors and started reading those stat!

I think emmabooks and Jesse the Reader might be a good place to start, as they have some shorter videos. Clockwork Reader and She Might Be Monica are also good, but they are a little longer than 10 minutes.

I'm expecting a book box next week! >.< Excitement and fear! haha. It's from OwlCrate and I have a high suspension of what it is...sooo it's probably what I'm going to read next. And if it's what I suspect, the author is another for BTAF '17.

What's the Korean drama one? I've been watching a few recently (Boys Over Flowers and Goblin are my fave!)

PS, my current read is Daughter of the Burning City by Amanda Foody.

Ashley (ashezbookz) I Believe in a Thing Called Love by Maurene Goo got that in the last book boyfriend box, which is unfortunately no longer ... I believe it's a korean drama based book - i've never had an owlcrate.. I AM so PROUD.. and she reads at least 2 books a day to us) - I believe they have one for kids I think my soon to be daughter would LOVE that as she's obsessed with reading she's turning into me (she's 7 and she recently asked for a light in her room to read at night before bed i used to get book boyfriend and bookish box but stopped them for the wedding .. saving lol Yes my wedding - August 26th :)

IT - love it actually just small writing and dense never read something so time consuming.

I subscribe to emmabooks which is how I found that one I've read a few she recommended with regard to mental health but there's a few that i really didnt like.. hit and miss lol I also subscribe to jesse (and that whole crew) I'll check out the others you mentioned asap!

I recently started following chapterstackss for my more adultish thriller books and loving it lol
