Rules Of Summer by Joanna Philbin Book Playlist and Giveaway

Joanna Philbin’s Rules of Summer is in stores this week. To celebrate, I have a summer playlist and giveaway to share with you for your own summer beach adventures.

Rules of Summer

About Rules of Summer:

There are two sides to every summer.

When seventeen-year-old Rory McShane steps off the bus in East Hampton, it’s as if she’s entered another universe, one populated by impossibly beautiful people wearing pressed khakis and driving expensive cars. She’s signed on to be a summer errand girl for the Rules — a wealthy family with an enormous beachfront mansion. Upon arrival, she’s warned by other staff members to avoid socializing with the family, but Rory soon learns that may be easier said than done.

Stifled by her friends and her family’s country club scene, seventeen-year-old Isabel Rule, the youngest of the family, embarks on a breathless romance with a guy whom her parents would never approve of. It’s the summer for taking chances, and Isabel is bringing Rory along for the ride. But will Rory’s own summer romance jeopardize her friendship with Isabel? And, after long-hidden family secrets surface, will the Rules’ picture-perfect world ever be the same?

I just started diving into Rules of Summer and it’s already helping me get into the summer vibe. And the official book playlist is really fun too – The Tide is High always makes me think of summer. Fun eclectic hot-weather mix!

    The songs in that playlist are from my day. I don’t listen to different music during the summer. Right now, I’m listening to a lot of Alabama Shakes, Black Keys, and Daft Punk.

  3. Sunny says:

    Okay, TBRing it right now if I don’t already have it on there. Also, LOVE the playlist. Not only do I love music in general, but I already love the songs on there. And you can’t beat summer-y music ๐Ÿ˜‰

  4. My gosh. Loved this book so much. I am now following this playlist! I need some music inspiration for the gym. Can I recommend the new Miley song for the summer? We Can’t Stop? I also like Florida Georgia Line’s Cruise. SO FUN.
