summer reads
I think for me reading during the summer is a lot more relaxing and enjoyable than watching Netflix. I never thought i would say that but it's true, during the summer i love to try and read as many books as possible. Today i thought i would share with you some of my favourite summer reads.
The first book that i recommend reading this summer is 'The Women in Black' by Susan Hill, now i know the whole thing about whats better the film or the book, but honestly i haven't seen the film so i have no idea how similar it is to the book. However, the book itself is amazing and i wasn't able to put it down.
The second book that i think is something you guys should read is 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower' by Stephen Chobsky. I know this book was quite popular last year but i have only just jumped on the band wagon and decided to read it. I can honestly say it lives up to its recommendations. A basic synoposis that is on the back of the book is below, for you guys to check out:
Charlie is a freshman.
And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it.
The last book that i recommend for this summer reads is 'The Vogue Factor' by Kirstie Clements. I was attracted to this book because of my sister, when i saw it in the pile of things she was throwing out, i was drawn to the front cover and from then on, i love the book as much as the front cover. Again, a basic synopsis that is on the back of the book is below, for you guys to check out:
Kirstie Clements, a girl from the wrong side of Sydney, tells of her audacious beginnings on the reception desk at the grand magazine and her rise to reigning editor for more than a decade.
In May 2012 Kirstie Clements was unceremoniously sacked after thirteen years in the editor's chair at Vogue Australia. Here she tells the story behind the headlines, and takes us behind the scenes of a fast-changing industry.
During a career at Vogue that spanned twenty-five years, Clements rubbed shoulders with Karl Lagerfeld, Kylie Minogue, Ian Thorpe, Crown Princess Mary, Cate Blanchett, and many more shining stars. From her humble beginnings growing up in the Sutherland Shire in Sydney to her brilliant career as a passionate and fierce custodian of the world's most famous luxury magazine brand, Clements warmly invites us into her Vogue world, a universe that brims with dazzling celebrities, fabulous lunches, exotic locales and of course, outrageous fashion.
Amidst the exhilaration and chaos of modern magazine publishing and the frenzied demands of her job, Clements is always steadfast in her dedication to quality. Above all, she is always Vogue.
That's all the books for this summer reads post, i hope you guys enjoyed reading and maybe are interested in reading some of these books for yourself, i'd love to know your favourite summer reads, so comment them below.
