Summer Reading Picks in the Popular Reading Area

Gumberg Library is suggesting some good summer reads, guaranteed to keep you turning the pages. These titles were chosen based on Gumberg Library staff recommendations, or because they were on the New York Times Bestseller List in the last three months, or they are by best-selling authors and have received at least 4 stars from Amazon.com readers.


You can find these titles and much more on the new summer reading guide at http://guides.library.duq.edu/summer-reading. On this first page selected bestsellers are highlighted. Click on the "More Titles" tab to see other summer reading suggestions. The library has a much larger collection of popular books which can be searched in DuCat.

Look for a selection of summer reading books on a cart marked “Summer Reading” in the Popular Reading area on the 4th floor of the Gumberg Library. Enjoy!
