Summer Reading Recommendations 

Now that school's out, students can read what they want, when they want. But after nine months of adhering to syllabi and obeying professorial dictates, it might be hard to figure out what to spend the summer break absorbing, contemplating and enjoying. Of course, different occasions call for different reading material, and from classics to the latest bestsellers, readers have so many books to choose from.

In an effort to help whittle down the list, World on Campus writers are offering suggestions from some of their favorite titles. Some share a common theme. Others just occupy a special spot on our writers' nightstands. From fantasy to mystery to theology, you're sure to find something that suits your mood and your tastes.
