Summer Books

By Laura Knoy on Thursday, June 16, 2005.

The hot weather is finally here, and so are lazy days at the beach and the pool. Along with the suntan lotion and lemonade, you'll be sure to have a book or two at your side. We'll find out what some of the big summers books are this year, and get some suggestions on what should be on your reading list. Laura's guests are Jeff Smull, general manager of the Toadstool Bookshop in Keene and Dan Chartrand, co-owner of the Water Street Bookstore in Exeter.
