Happy Tuesday! (Almost) every Tuesday at around this time, I participate in The Broke and the Bookish‘s Top Ten Tuesday weekly meme. This week’s theme is Top 1o beach reads. You know the type: light, fluffy, and requiring a total of zero brainpower– in other words, the perfect escape from the real world. So without further ado, here are 10 books (let’s count the series as one, yes?) without which your beach bag would not be complete.

Again, these are:

– Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

– The Selection by Kiera Cass

– Perfect Chemistry by Simone Elkeles

– Beauty Queens by Libba Bray

– Belles by Jen Calonita

– The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han

– Spoiled and Messy by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan

– Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

– Heist Society by Ally Carter

– Bloodlines by Richelle Mead

I’ll keep you posted,
