Summer is the ultimate time to relax and rejuvenate before the new school year. Between resting on the beach in the warm sun and chilling out inside during rainy spells, the opportunities to read new books are endless. But now that summer is halfway over (*sigh*), your reading list is likely running short. Instead of re-reading Harry Potter for the thousandth time, here are some fantastic new finds that'll keep you well-supplied 'til the end of summer.
