This installment of Weekend Reads is brought to you by Chelsea Kaneshiro, Corporate Communications Intern.
When you think of a summer book, what comes to mind? Chances are it isn’t a mystery or thriller, but this week’s list of titles could surprise you. These novels effortlessly combine a wicked sense of humor with a thrilling plot making for refreshing poolside reads.
One of my all-time favorite books is Jesse Q. Sutanto’s DIAL A FOR AUNTIES (Berkley), which was the inspiration behind this theme. The genius storyline is a rom com meets murder and hits home for anyone with nosy family members. I think this genre has become so much more than dark suspense, but full of well-rounded stories that are beautifully written and even… funny.
