Summer Reading Suggestions

If the list of what I'm reading this summer wasn't enough...here are some of my all time favorite summertime reads, from easy reads perfect for the beach, to ones that will suck you into their world, no matter whether you're in your backyard or on a long flight. Seriously, just writing this list is making me want to read all of these again.
