Honesty moment. I would love to read some books to just "take me away." Meaning, taking a break from those great books which are centered on professional or personal development. I mean, those are excellent tools. I just would like a break, it seems. I am now inspired to enjoy the summer, with a book. Thanks for this post. It's OK…

It's OK to take a deep breath, and not feel as if you're escaping. Am I off?!? Please, feedback welcome.
I haven't done it in a few years but I used to select escapist books for the summer , as long as the titles contained words like Summer, Beach, Vacation, Lake house, etc. Light light reading.
I love to read about places I want to visit... My wife is a white knuckler and hates to fly so it limits where we go... this summer I want to go to Nantucket ....
OK, I've got one for you. Richard Osman's The Thursday Murder Club. It is a hilarious mystery with some touching parts mixed in. I finished it a few weeks ago, and get a smile just looking at it sitting on my shelf.
You will not be disappointed taking some time for yourself with a book. If you can’t find big chunks of time maybe download an audio book. A good reader allows you to get into the characters, intonation, their accents and moods. Can’t go wrong with John Grisham or James Lee Burke. Good luck. Dive in.
Not at all! I've been taking a class that meets every Tuesday night for about 2 hours, and coaching my son's soccer team, plus working, so I've had a lot of time during the week I've been needing to be "on," you know? I'm looking forward to just escaping into as many books as I can this summer.

I love a book like that!
