/lit/ - Literature

I'd like a nice summer read with a bit of romance and a seaside setting. What do you have for me?

With this book you're not just getting the book itself, you're getting, essentially, a /lit/ time-capsule; long after this site is gone or perhaps long after you've left (or perhaps you didn't leave at all; maybe we left; maybe the anons you once knew are gone, a new generation has moved in and slowly replaced the oldfags, like the oldfags themselves did when they were new), when you're an old man, you'll find this copy sitting on your bookshelf. You'll pick it up and the memories, good and bad, will come back. You will remember the laughs that were had, you will remember the faceless friends that were made. Never again in all the world will this community exist the way it does now. Like all communities, it will degrade, die, be reborn, but never exactly the way it was before. This book will help you to remember, however fleeting the memories be, we anons gathered here today. Here's to the never-ending march of time, the passing of youth, and the joy of faceless friends.

I only partially remember it but I went on a whiskey fueled rant about The Iliad, Evola, the Indo-Aryans, and Norse paganism during a christmas vacation in Mexico and burned a bridge between myself and my homosexual but religious cousin.

Summer's here, lads. I was wondering what are your recommended summer reads, books that more enjoyable during the season and all that. Will probably make a chart with the best recs.
