?Heading up north? Or perhaps <\/strong>east<\/strong> for your share of Red Sea sun? <\/strong>No matter the coastline, one thing remains unfortunately true: lounging by the beach can become monotonous faster than expected. While beach time offers unrivaled relaxation, it doesn\u2019t take long for idle sunbathing to turn into restlessness. The remedy? Considering digital screens don\u2019t fare all too well by the beach, a good old book might just be your most reliable ally. <\/p>\n

Not sure what book to grab for your weekend getaway? We curated a list for you. <\/strong>From vacations gone wrong and summer flings to experience vicariously, to short novellas that can be read in between pool dips, here\u2019s what we recommend for your next beachside read. <\/p>\n

\n

SUMMER FLINGS-<\/p>\n

Summer is never complete without a casual fling <\/strong>\u2014 and if you\u2019re not living one firsthand, you should at least experience it through characters who don\u2019t have to suffer any consequences. Here are our beachside romcom recommendations:<\/p>\n

#1- Just for the Summer <\/strong>by Abby Jimenez.<\/strong> What do you do when every single person you date ends up breaking up with you only to find their soulmate after? Naturally, you vent on Reddit. When Emma comes across Justin\u2019s post and realizes they share the same dating curse, the pair decide to fake-date to see if they can indeed summon their soulmates afterwards. But what was supposed to be a quick summer fling may not burn out as quickly as they had imagined.<\/p>\n
