Wherever your chosen reading locale - beach, park bench, airplane, air-conditioned living room - make sure you’re curling up with the best books of summer 2018. From novels to short story collections, historical yarns to nonfiction titles drawn from the headlines, there’s something new for readers of all stripes to dig into this summer. Debut authors with buzzy fiction, teen activists marking a movement and historical experts populate this summer reading list for 2018.
My suggestions are (for now):
1. Female Persuasion by Meg Wolitzer
2. The High Season by Judy Blundell
3. Look Alive Out There by Sloane Crosley
4. Nedoumice by Dzevad Karahasan
5. Alfir by Irfan Horozovic
6. The Missing by Agatha Christy

I prefer reading the books of statistics, fodder crops and books related to the plant.
I like to consult essays about everything. It gives a general culture and a wide perspective of Our world community
Gore Vidal's essays, without fail. Beautiful style, analytical and knowledgeable.
Gore Vidal's 'Creation', a novel about a point in time when great thinkers emerged and the world changed, as they say in all the good blurbs. Brilliant novel and brilliant history!
Nice suggestions @ Šeherzada Džafić

A novel I'm reading at present is worth a mention.
We by the Russian writer Yevgeny Zamyatin, written in 1922. It tells of a future world, a dystopia where, as usual in such stories, people are controlled to the utmost. Lives are comically regimented to an extreme. Thought to be an inspiration behind Orwell's 1984, Zamyatin wrote it as a thesis on freedom and its importance for human progress and happiness. At certain points it reminds me of parts of Gulliver's Travels. Well written, odd in the best possible way, and worth a look for those who love literature and ideas.
I recommend Postmodernism and Histotiographic Metafiction. A literature Reveiw and Some addition.
