Every year I ask my friends on my Facebook page for their recommended Summer Reads, their favourite books to read on the beach for this year.
Here is the Summer Reads 2017. It’s not scientific. I don’t know what they are basing their decisions on. In some case it might be a good cover, in others it’s a favourite author, but almost always the books ideas turn out to be brilliant and I am grateful for their ideas.
