What do you read in summer?

hot summer books for cool summer people
Alicia Fernandes

It's our second bonus episode of the summer!

Today, we share how our writing is going as the days lengthen and the temptation to spend our time having iced coffees in the sun threatens to lure us away from our writing desks.

We also discuss what we read in summer, from depressing Victorian classics to bonkbusters and transformative international fiction. And what about books set in the summertime — what effect does heat have on a narrative?

If you like the sound of Alice’s dreamy writing retreat on the episode, you can find out more here.

Next time: In Haste’s summer brunch special!
