Wondering what books to pack for your summer beach vacation?
Whether you want a romantic beach read, a celebrity tale, a murder mystery, a spy thriller or a science fiction prediction for the future, Amazon’s team of editors has a summer beach read pick for you.
Amazon’s list of top 20 summer beach reads include new works, such as Mary Kay Andrews’ “Beach Town,” Sabaa Tahir’s “An Ember in the Ashes” and Pulitzer Prize winner David McCullogh’s biography of the Wright Brothers. Prefer a tale of nature and endurance? Cheryl Strayed’s “Wild” made the list. Want to watch what you also read? Blake Crouch’s first book, “Pines,” in his “Wayward Pines” trilogy — now a limited series on Fox — is also on the list. And if you’re convinced the world is ending, join Neal Stephenson for his fantastical read, “Seveneves.”
