Summer is the time for flip flops, lemonade, and pool/beach side reading. I am ALWAYS on the look out for a good book, so I thought I would share a few of the books I've been reading lately that are worth passing on.
Barefoot by Elin Hilderbrand
It is about 3 women gong through three very tough, yet very different situations who decide to get away from it all and spend the summer in a cottage on Nantucket. It is the perfect mix of a drama/tragedy and a love story, and is just right for some pool side reading.

Vision in White and Bed of Roses by Nora Roberts
These are the first 2 in the Bride Quartet (the third book comes out tomorrow!). The story follows 4 best friends who formed an all inclusive wedding business called Vows, but who haven't been so lucky in the love department themselves. The books are all about their friendships, their business and talents, and of course, finding love.

The Pact by Jodi Picoult
Chris Harte, a popular athlete and the artistic Em Gold bonded as infants and remained best friends and next door neighbors for 18 years. When they fall in love, everyone is beyond ecstatic. Well, everyone except for Em, who finds that being with Chris feels almost incestuous. This eventually leads to depression and a deep desire to end her life, and she insists that Chris prove his love by pulling the trigger. It is a little "heavier" than I would normally pick for a summer chick lit book, and a bit of a mystery, but it was a really interesting read.
