It is officially Hot Girl Summer, and why not make it better by turning it into Hot Book Summer? Tis the season to lounge by the pool, not give a care in the world about what people think about our lives, and do whatever feels right. All of this couldn’t be right without indulging in a book or two, hence, hot girl summer isn’t complete without a curated reading list!

Here To Make Friends by Hope Kelaher is a great addition to your hot girl summer reading list. This summer you can become the “IT” girl and really learn how to skip small talk and connect with people! Written by a licensed therapist, this book is a beautiful companion to all your summer fun when you might not know where to begin those conversations.

If your summer bucket list includes a road trip The Van Life Cookbook is the perfect back seat partner. This pretty cookbook includes delicious and nutritious meals for modern-day nomads living the #vanlife.

If this summer you and your friends are living your best Serena and Blair era (the real trend setters for hot girl summer), the XOXO: A Cocktail Book can help you make the best party drinks that will make you feel like a true Upper East Sider. Chuck Bass is sadly not included. 

The perfect poolside book for when you’re looking for some fun yet chill activity. The Best F*cking Activity Book Ever has hilarious crosswords, puzzles and coloring pages to complete during your hot girl summer.

It is okay if your summer doesn’t include pools and cocktails, this summer can be all about starting a new hobby and crochet is in. What About Yarn includes easy step by step directions, for beginners or experts, to create tops, hats and fashionable sets.

With this collection of books, this summer will be unforgettable!
