To Be Read (TBR)

My Summer TBR

Hello Everyone!

Summer is the perfect time to catch up on my reading and read MORE because the school year is over for now. The books on this list are going to be pleasure reads and school reads, with the synopsis of the books and the reason why I have chosen those books! Here we go!

17838528.jpgTitle: The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson

Synopsis: Future? A top-tier medical school.
Dad? Avoid him as much as possible (which isn’t that hard considering he’s a Congressman and he’s never around).
Relationships? No one’s worth more than three weeks.
So it’s no surprise that Andie’s got her summer all planned out too.
Until a political scandal costs Andie her summer pre-med internship, and lands both she and Dad back in the same house together for the first time in years. Suddenly she’s doing things that aren’t Andie at all—working as a dog walker, doing an epic scavenger hunt with her dad, and maybe, just maybe, letting the super cute Clark get closer than she expected. Palmer, Bri, and Toby tell her to embrace all the chaos, but can she really let go of her control?
  (Goodreads)

Comment: Morgan Matson’s books are the PERFECT SUMMER READ. First because it is set during the summertime and second because her stories are well-written, cute and captivating. I absolutely loved Since you’ve been gone, so I expect to love this just as much! Continue reading “My Summer TBR”
