Book Chat: BEACH READS!

Hey there! Welcome to this month's Book Chat! The topic for this month's chat seemed fairly obvious to me, because it's definitely that time of year: Beach Reads time!

I love me a good list, and Beach Reads lists often hit on a number of things I don't *generally* read, but crave during the summer.

Beach Reads can mean totally different books to different people, but I tend to reach for books that are light, quick and fun, with super-engaging characters. Contemporary seems to place high on my summer lists (which is a rarity for me), and books set at a beach have an automatic pass onto the list... =D

Feel free to share what you look for in a beach read, and your recommendations for beachy, backyard summer reading in the comments, by creating your own video as a response, or as a blog post, which you can link up below!

Thanks for watching!
