Ah, summer! Is there anything better than warm weather, long days, and relaxing afternoons with a book? We’ll give you a hint: the answer is no, there’s not. Of all the great things that summer brings, tank tops, iced tea, and YA books are at the top of our list. And since YA is our specialty, we’ve created this list of must-read books you’ll want to add to your TBR pile. So grab your favorite drink and settle in.
In our first Indie Love Story, we are profiling Books Inc. in San Francisco. We met with Hannah Walcher, who is the coordinator of their extremely popular Not Your Mother’s Book Club. I’ve loved books my whole life. As soon as I found out there was a job where you could read books for a living, I knew I had to be an editor. That’s right—I totally skipped over the possibility of working at an actual bookstore. I went through with my plan and entered an MA in publishing program at Rosemont College.
Occasionally, YA readers have the urge to read a book that hits the core of what it truly means to live and love, to laugh and cry, to mourn and thrive, make mistakes and keep going through it all. Jared Reck’s A SHORT HISTORY OF THE GIRL NEXT DOOR resonates with all of these lessons, written in elegant and heartbreakingly humorous style.
