Summer Lovin'

This month it’s all about the beach reads, rom coms, and/or love stories. Pick something fun and light-hearted.  Most of the books in this list are romances but we've included some non-fiction titles just to round things out.

If you are participating in our 2023 Book Talks Challenge or Adult Summer Reading 2023, write a short book review using a bookmark review form (pick one up at the Reference Desk or email your review to marcia.literati@tenafly.bccls.org (put Book Review in the subject line).

Everyone who writes a review will be entered into a monthly drawing for a free book.

Make sure to submit your review by July 31, 2023.
