We have books that are on the shorter side, like 224 or less.

We have books on the longer side, 450 and up.

Lots of books to take you around the world.

I told you about the immersive books I gulped down in two days or sometimes...

I was going to say closer to two hours.

That's an exaggeration, but more like 24 hours.

Yes, absolutely.

Lots of thorny relationship dramas, a nice amount of magical realism.

There's just lots of good stuff in this year's guide.

I was just thinking that.

And we really want to be at your service as you make your reading life work for you.

And the Summer Reading Guide can absolutely be your beginning and your end of summer discovery, but it can also be the leaping off point for summer of lots more discovery and enjoyment.

So if you're interested in exploring more, I know many of you are.

In our Patreon community, I just released a bonus episode a couple weeks back that was featuring April 2026 releases that I thought were 100% worth talking about, but were not in the pages of the Summer Reading Guide.

So I know many of you often read the guide thinking, is she going to include the whatever?

So preemptively, I'm telling you, here's some like early summer reading guide-ish picks.

And also if you're wondering where the new book by whoever is, it's not in, I can tell you now, it's right here.

And if you want new releases that are already out, they are all out as of now.

We also do a bonus Patreon episode that we also make available to all our book clubbers.

This is always, for several years now, the first bonus after the guide releases where I go really in-depth and answer questions
