Wow, nice contest! I always like reading Sarah Dessen in the summertime. Most of them are set in that season, and they're not TOO frothy. Very touching stuff.

Haha I'll just be like so many other people and say that Sarah Dessen's books are always good for summer, because they are! Elizabeth Scott books are good too, they're lighter reads but still enjoyable.

+1 My favorite summer reads are Meg Cabot's books and any of Sandra Brown's romantic suspense :)
Ok, it may seem strange for a summer pick, but I usually read the Harry Potter books every summer. They're nice to escape the real world for a while. :)

I follow your blog.
It's so hard to pick - I've cried more times this year reading a book than all the books I've read in my lifetime. But my favorite summertime read right now is between The 20 Boy Summer and The Demon's Lexicon.

I was sure I already did this but I must be wrong. I'm so glad I saw your reminder. Happy, happy birthday!! I hope it was very special. I love summer reading, the new books and reading outside, it's a whole experience. There are so many good books coming up too. I Really look forward to Finger Lickin' Fifteen by Janet Evanovich because of the laugh-out-loud humor.

My favorite summer read is the The Mortal Instruments series. I have been hooked. Also I am a new follower but love this site. Thanks for the contest.

Happy Extended Birthday celebration! My favorite beach read are books by Jennifer Weiner for grownup reading and I think Rachel Cohn for YA. Both offer a good, slightly cynical alternative to straight chicklit romance and an amazing sense of location and community.
my summer book read this year is going to be "blue moon" (in combination with the russians - i am reading "the brothers kamarazov") and anything i can get my hands on early!!
