What is a “beach book?” While all the books on the list should be enthralling enough to inoculate vacation-goers against the vagaries of missed flights and bad weather, many “great books” aren’t great “beach books.” Tone, setting and sheer length play their parts. On the other hand, status as a classic isn’t an automatic disqualifier; both The Great Gatsby and Pride and Prejudice were popular nominees. In the end, you’ll decide what makes the top 100.
