Books set in the summer
The sun is out and hopefully staying out…..and it’s nearly officially summer….so get those books ready for the beach! Or books that take you away somewhere hot wherever you are reading them…

Portugal – A Hotel by the Sea – Julie Caplin
A hotel and it’s by the sea….could this book BE more summer? There’s sun, sea, and a fresh start in the book as well as a rather attractive man called Felipe……………….
Spain – Just About Us – Barbara Copperthwaite
Six friends go on holiday to a nice villa in Spain – there to celebrate a birthday as well as their friendship. Well……what could go wrong?
You need a fairy story in the summer don’t you? To read in the garden beside some mysterious toadstools….
Fairyland – The Golden Feather – Tracy Rees
Set in the fictional, enchanting land of Jilibora. Inspired by the landscape of Wiltshire which is always nice in summer. English woods/coungtryside vibes.
Seychelles – The Barefoot Bookshop on the Beach
Inspired by a real life bookshop where every year calls out for volunteers to run it for a time and have the adventure of a lifetime….
England- The Strawberry House – Rachel Burton
The name of the house itself screams summer, doesn’t it?
