It’s that time of year again when every magazine, newspaper and newsletter offer suggestions on summer reading. So why should this blog be any different?
Summer is the perfect time to spend some time vacationing or just relaxing. Sit in the sun, lie on a chaise poolside, rest by the ocean or a lake, or under the shade of a tree, sip a cool drink, and read a book—hard cover, soft cover, audio or digital.
Mysteries remain one of the most popular genres for summer reading. Why? Because they entertain us. They also engage our intellect in a satisfying manner. Romances provide us with a happy ever after ending, good escape reading. If you like reading for enjoyment, it’s the way to go. I just finished reading A PERILOUS PAL by Laura Bradford and I enjoyed it very much. This is a second novel in what may become a series.
I’ve also continued to read a lot of Regency fiction. Just to mention, Luminosity has published my backlist Regency title TEA LEAVES AND TAROT CARDS and just contracted with me for my new Regency novel THE LOST LADY. It continues where the first book left off.
Lots of good summer reading on the bestseller list. However, there are excellent authors who write for small independent presses and provide us with quality fiction but don’t get as much publicity because they are not with the big publishers.
If
you enjoy historical romance, I suggest my novels:
SINFUL SEDUCTION from Luminosity, set during the American Revolution, or HIGHLAND HEART, historical romance set in England and the Scottish Highlands in 1745 at the time of the second Jacobite Rebellion. Luminosity also published my Western novel THE KILLING LAND month.
