Hannah Coulter by Wendell Berry

It’s already the middle of June, but there are still a solid eight weeks left of summer reading, and if you’re still on library hold lists for new releases or had great intentions about summer reading and have watched it fall to the wayside because you didn’t have a great book in hand, hopefully this episode will help!

I’ve compiled a list of 21 books I’ve read over the past six summers, and they all feel like summer books. And they’re all backlist titles, so it shouldn’t be hard getting them immediately at the library or even at a used bookstore for cheap. They’re easy to find.
