This week’s topic is Books/Covers that Feel/Look Like Summer. Here are ten books whose covers make me think of summer, starting with a Dirk Bogarde trio. Links from the titles will take you to my review or Goodreads.
Great Meadow by Dirk Bogarde
Jericho by Dirk Bogarde
Voices in the Garden by Dirk Bogarde
An Edwardian Summer by John S. Goodall
The Summer of Impossible Things by Rowan Coleman
The Summer House Party by Caro Fraser
Two Woman in Rome by Elizabeth Buchan
Summer of the Three Pagodas by Jean Moran
This Green and Plesant Land by Ayisha Malik
One August Night by Victoria Hislop
What Cathy Read Next... 
I loved The Summer of Impossible Things. The Summer House Party appeals. It has a great cover – looks very Enid Blyton!

It’s the sequel to The Island but can be read as a standalone if you haven’t read the earlier book (although I still prefer that one).

These definitely all look very summery, I particularly love the cover of Two Women In Rome, the purple against the yellow is very striking!
