“Backlist” simply means “not newly published.” (For example, since Don’t Overthink It is my most recent book, it’s my “frontlist” title. In addition to your enthusiasm for our upcoming guide full of brand new releases, I’ve also heard many requests for backlist books to read this summer. I’ve returned to many of the books on this list for a reread (and not just in the summertime!). Today I’m sharing 20 of those favorites from past Summer Reading Guides-the standout books that have stuck with me years later. But it wasn’t long before I was reading advance review copies to sift through summer’s most anticipated releases so I could recommend my personal favorites. That inaugural guide included timeless classics like Pride and Prejudice and Brideshead Revisited, along with buzzy new releases hitting bookstore shelves. Readers, 2021 marks TEN YEARS of our annual Summer Reading Guide! I’m excited to get the brand new guide in your hands, but as a reflective reader, I’m also enjoying a look back at how this guide has grown and changed since its first iteration in 2012.
