What Goodreads Employees Are Reading This Summer

"If you've got an overflowing Want to Read shelf of books that you keep meaning to get to (one day!), you're in good company. Our company, that is. As you can imagine, Goodreads staffers are no stranger to the "so many books, so little time" problem.
We asked our bookish colleagues to share three books they're bumping to the top of their reading lists for the summer. From up-and-coming page-turners to big biographies to thought-provoking nonfiction, these are the titles we'll be chatting about all season around our virtual watercooler."
