Summer Book Recs from Nerdette’s Greta Johnsen

Whether your summer plans include sitting on the beach, taking a road trip, flying, or just staying home — you might be looking for something good to read. “Nerdette” host Greta Johnsen — who’s already read about 50 books so far this year — is here with her summer reading recommendations. She says they all fall into the theme of being transported somewhere, from a residential school for deaf children to 1920s New York to an African safari to a more ghostly Chicago.  Greta's List: True Biz by Sara Novic Trust by Hernan Diaz The Lioness by Chris Bohjalian When We Fell Apart by Soon Wiley This Thing Between us by Gus Moreno: What’s on your summer reading list?
