 Beach Reads:
Lighthearted novels with a summery lake or beach setting. I've read all of the books above.

Music:
Music is such a personal thing, so of course your summer music is entirely up to you! However, I suggest: Lana Del Rey's 'Born to Die - The Paradise Edition' (includes both albums) and Justin Timberlake's The 20/20 Experience. Check them out!
