The weather gods seem to be kind to us and we will definitely enjoy some time on the East Sussex beaches. After a week long search I finally got myself a swimsuit, the shops had very poor choice being the end of the sales and the one I wanted was sold out in every single shop. But I tried over and over again and at last yesterday it magically appeared online again (bless you return policies!) so I swiftly purchased it, it arrived today and is lovely.
So, my Kindle is loaded, the packing is done in my head, some plans are made. I will leave you with a list of my favorite summer reads, the sort of books that bring to mind reading in a middle of an overgrown meadow with crickets and bees buzzing around your head on a very hot summer’s day while sucking on ice lollies (I am currently obsessed with pure pineapple juice lollies, at 65 calories they are a guiltless pleasure).
every summer for the past few years i’ve read one of the anne of green gables books. i never read them as a girl, so i’ve been slowly savoring them one a year as an adult. they are the perfect summer read.
i love your list… i need to put a few of these on mine, too!
Oh, I love Anne of Green Gables. My childhood was filled with the books and films. Thank you for reminding me Ara Jane!
Some great books! Diary of a Nobody is one of my mum’s favourites; she was reading it when she went into hospital to have me!
Need to read The Making of a Marchioness, it has been on my shelf for too long.
I am currently reading relaxation trash, I won’t embarrass myself by sharing it here.

Ha ha ha, Caroline, relaxing is good, hope all is progressing well. x
