From Emily Henry’s witty banter in “Funny Story” to Laura Thalassa’s epic world-building in “Bespelled,” these seven books are PERFECT for any rainy spring afternoon or sunny summer beach day.

Is there anything better in the world than getting cozy with a steamy drink and an even steamier book?

No, I really don’t think so which is why I’ve read over 60 romance novels in 2024 (so far).
