The Hit List - Five great summer reads

I love to read. There is always a stack of books by my side, possibly to ensure I never run out of things to read. Here are five books on my stack that are perfect additions to your summer reading list (psst… no, I don’t always stick to metaphysical topics!).

Caroline Donahue recommended this book recently in her Substack. I trust her recommendations, so I grabbed a copy immediately. Everything, Beautiful is a gorgeously illustrated book that is a reminder that there is beauty all around in this ugly ass world.

Raise Your Frequency Transform Your Life is the perfect book for highly sensitive folks who would like to turn their challenges into tools for a peaceful, abundant life. The practices are simple but effective.

Because Project 2025 has me freaking out, I’m reading plenty of books about protecting democracy. I just got this yesterday: Democracy in Retrograde. I can’t wait to dig in!

I read this book and found it filled with excellent tips. I just reread the section on boundaries—it’s exactly what I needed. Tess Whitehurst delivers the perfect book for midlife women. I love Radiant!

Writers love to read books about writing. Writing On Empty is a new book by Natalie Goldberg. I look forward to working my way through this one!

So those are the current books on my must-read summer list. What’s on yours?
