5 Beach Reads That Everyone Will Enjoy

This post is in partnership with Harper Collins via Babbleboxx. As always, all opinions are my own. Thank you for supporting the companies that support The Espresso Edition.

Summer is officially here, which means that it’s time to plan all your beach reads!

I read a tweet the other day that said something along the lines of how beach reads are like beach bodies. We say any body is a beach body if you put a swimsuit on it and go to the beach. Similarly, any book is a beach read if you read it while at the beach! I love that way of thinking because sometimes beach reads are marketed only as flirty contemporary romances and I know not everyone enjoys that genre. I for one don’t mix up what I read at the beach and tend to bring along the same books I would normally read at any other time of the year.

That’s why I’m thrilled to be partnering with Harper Collins to share five incredible beach reads ranging from books that read like Daisy Jones & The Six to some seriously poignant historical fiction that will grip you from beginning to end! There’s something for everyone on this list, so you’ll want to keep your TBR handy because you’re about to add several new titles!
