Book Club Picks for Summer 2025

06.25.2025 by Jen Ryland // Leave a Comment

What are the Best Book Club Picks for Summer 2025? My picks are all page-turners and include suspense, psychological suspense, coming of age stories, Southern Noir, and historical romance. All this summer book club fiction is extremely discussable and I will link to book club discussion questions for most of them (and my discussion posts if you don’t have a book club!)
