Sophia of Silicon Valley
Compared to the massive hit The Devil Wears Prada, Sophia of Silicon Valley is about an intelligent young Asian woman discussing her time in the tech industry. This fictional story covers Sophia’s rise to the top, but, once she gets there, she realizes the career she’s made may not be worth the toxic work environment.

The Husband Hour
The best stories to read on the beach are books that take place on the beach. In this novel, written by Jamie Brenner, a woman navigates grief and comes to terms with life without her husband. Lauren Adelman loses her husband and retreats to the Jersey Shore, where a filmmaker convinces her to take part in a documentary about her late husband.

Beach House Reunion
This heartwarming novel will hold the attention of any beach-goer. Cara Rutledge and her recent college graduate niece, Linnea, both travel to the family beach house. Through the summer, they both rediscover their callings in life and look to the future with hope. There’s something magical about beaches that help people find their purpose and this book does an excellent job presenting that.

The Mars Room
This novel is a real page-turner. The main character, Romy Hall, is set to serve two consecutive life sentences at Stanville Women’s Correctional Facility. The prison tale examines her gritty life in prison and Hall’s adaptability. Two-time National Book Award-nominated Rachel Kushner wrote the novel.
