Summer Reading 2021 - 10 Books that Aren't Brand New but Worth a Read

Hi lovely reader! Happy Saturday! As you can tell from the title of this post, I wanted to put together a list of some of my favorite books for those of you looking for ideas of what to read this summer. I also focussed on books that aren't necessarily brand new in the hopes that they are easier to get a hold of. I often find that as people start releasing their must reads for the summer months the books are newer and on so many people's lists that they become impossible to get! So have a scroll and hopefully you'll find something you might like!

For the person who is all about that Personal Growth,

For the person who loves a bit of Christmas in July,

For the person who loves a good heart warmer,


For the person who loves a book that makes you think,

For the person who believes "Young Adult Novels" aren't just for young adults,

Giving this book honorable mention because apparently it is all over TikTok so it may be harder to get but it is def worth the read! I read it right after it came out in 2014 and it is still one of my favorite books!


What are you reading this summer? Xx

Read All About It

Hi there lovely reader! How are you on this fine Saturday? I hope you are doing well and are getting to experience some summer wherever you are! Today I wanted to share some nice books that I got recently. As you know from my "Current Read" posts, I love reading. I also love being inspired and these three books are full of information, inspiration, and of course fashion!


So the first book I want to share with you is "The Craft" by Lou Teasdale. This book is so cool. I really admire Lou, her career and her style, so when I heard she had a book coming out, I was eager to read it!


It's full of alternative hair, makeup, and nail tutorials. In the book Lou also shares her tips of getting into the industry. Even if your not fully into some of the alternative looks, it's still a fun book to look at. There are Polaroid-esque pictures and funky illustrations that fill the pages.


The next book I had seen all over social media and read great things about it, so I had to give it a go! The book is "#GIRLBOSS" by Sophia Amoruso. 


If you don't already know, Sophia is the founder and CEO of the amazing brand Nasty Gal. The book is divided into sections, each beginning with an illustration and a quote. (Obviously won me over instantly) Sophia writes, “I have three pieces of advice I want you to remember: Don’t ever grow up. Don’t become a bore. Don’t let The Man get to you. OK? Cool.  Then let’s do this.” 


The final book is written by another person I admire so much. She's the epitome of glamour. The book is "Living in Style" by Rachel Zoe. 


This book is so well written and absolutely stunning. There a professional photos as well as personal photos that Rachel Zoe shares. 


 
What fashion books are you loving? Have you read any of these gems? Xx
