It is almost summer and one of my goals is to stop doomscrolling and read more books instead. I love reading for several reasons. First of all, I love that these books can bring me to another world for a couple of hours. Plus, I think it is also sort of form of meditation for me. I feel so relaxed when I am reading.
So I decided to make a summer reading list for this summer and I also decided to share it with you. Most of the books on this list are romance, since that is my favorite genre. But I also added a couple of Dark Romance and Thrillers to this list. Sometimes I also want to read something different.
