We asked our staff to share their top summer reads. Click here to get the full list.
“Nothing brings your favourite childhood author to life like reading his personal autobiography. I first read Going Solo — the conclusion to Dahl’s first autobiography Boy— last summer and my suspicions were quickly confirmed: Roald Dahl is one of the coolest people ever. Dahl tells the story of his journey from England to Africa in 1938 to begin working at the Shell Oil Company. It’s a personal tale filled with laughs and suspense written by one of the world’s best storytellers, allowing readers to see a whole new side of an author whose repertoire goes well beyond the fantastical.”
