Summer Reading List: 2013


The New York Times puts together a list of beach reads, just in time for the weekend. Topping the list is a new book from Stephen King, “Joyland.” King’s latest offers up “retro thrills” but its title is also co-opted by the Times to describe what summer reading is all about: “To get to a book lover’s Joyland, just leave your guilt at the door, seek gratification over edification, and don’t take offense easily.” With that in mind, be sure to check out “Crazy, Rich Asians”—this year’s “Bergdorf Blondes” and Carl Hiaasen’s send-up of South Florida, “Bad Monkey.”
