Read the Guide to Summer Reading Guides

Photo: Angello Lopez
It’s summer, the only season that gets its own “reads,” for some reason. Pick a book for the beach, park, or hoarded table at the air-conditioned Starbucks, with this collection of the 20 summer reading lists from major publications, compiled by Metafilter user Fizz.
They’ve got reading lists from Vulture, the New Yorker, Vanity Fair, and our scifi sister site io9. Weirdly they don’t have Lifehacker’s 2018 summer reading list, which includes comments from our readers about what books they’re reading this summer. (Our 2017 list is still good too.)
We found even more summer reading lists:
We asked writer Maris Kreizman, co-author of Vulture’s summer reading list (and previously editorial director of Book of the Month Club), what makes a summer read different from any other good read. “Absolutely nothing aside from the publication date,” she says. Of course, as with movies, publishers often schedule books for an appropriate time of the year. Personally, our favorite summer reads are escapist, funny, and—for tote bag and poolside friendliness—always paperback.
