5 Books you must read during summer

When the color of life in spring gone, thus summer came to shine. We tanned our skin under the sun, we go to the nearest beach to swim, we took a vacation to rest, and most of all, we pick up books to read, right? The world was ailing and suffered a bad economic flow, but we never lack books. Writers never stop imagining stories in their mind and they never stopped to put it in the most beautiful line on a piece of paper. So while you were appreciating the season, please save some for books okay?

As I said, summer is the time for us to relax, so, I’m going to recommend books that would satisfy your leisure reading. I’m not going to emphasize on literary value of a book, but I’d prefer the smoothness of the flow in a story and the inspiring idea and plot about the world and life. Easy to read and entertaining, that’s what I’m talking about. So for those of you who were thinking of books to read during summer, I’m here to help you on that.

Genre: Thriller suspense, Sci-fi
Brief review:-

The Bartemious Trilogy – Jonathan Stroud
Genre: Fantasy
Brief review:-
Humorous and interesting character of a witty genie. Interesting switch of different styles in writing that fell in one story. Page turning and funny, that well brewed until you’ll find it hard to put the book down.

The Witch of Porto Bello – Paulo Coelho
Genre: Mystery, Life Philosophies
Brief review:-
Authentic and filled with overflowing truth about life. An honest writer with talents to put up a story of life the way it should be, the truth behind it that we always overlooked. The character Athena will bring you into the understanding of life, the joy behind the rainbow and the dark shade of it.

The Alchemist – Paulo Coelho
Genre: Mystery, Life Philosophies
Brief review:-
A must read book! By pulling this kind of story, Paulo Coelho had brought his book up into an entirely new level. A story about life, the mystery behind, and a story about the one who believe…
