Read the Guide to Summer Reading Guides

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:

Brooklyn Public Library: BKLYN Summer Reading 2018 Adults, High School, and lists for kids of every age
Powell’s Books: Picks of the Month June 2018
BookBub: The Ultimate Summer 2018 Reading List
Goodreads: The Hottest Books of Summer
UC Berkeley: Fiat Lux: “Let there be light”: 2018 Summer Reading List
Association for Library Service to Children: 2018 ALSC Summer Reading Lists
BuzzFeed: beach reads, “feel-good books”, paperback, young adult
Publishers Weekly: Staff Picks and Children’s Picks

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.
