Helping you unwind and relax, there’s no better feeling than escaping into the pages of a book on your summer holiday. But if you’re stuck for inspiration on what to pick up next, the IndyBest team has you covered with our top recommendations, whether it’s for a long flight and poolside sojourn or a weekend lounging in the garden.
But what, exactly makes the perfect summer read? Some of us want to be reminded of a certain place and time, others want to be swept away by romantasy or stay in the literary loop by reading exciting debuts. We might want a page-turning thriller, or perhaps a book that’s set in the area we’re holidaying in.
