2017 Summer Reading and Summer Accessories

It's Summer and that means SUMMER READING!!  I signed my kid up for the library Summer Reading and you know I'm doing some Summer Reading of my own.

Last year I shared some summer books that you should totally be TBRing (or you know, actually reading), and just for fun, threw in some accessories to go with.  It was one of my favorite posts-- because I totally LOVE when books and fashion go together-- so I'm bringing it back this year with my 2017 Summer Books:
