Beach Reads 2025!

Summer is finally here! It's the perfect time to go to the Beach and enjoy the sights and sounds of the waves. Bring your sunscreen, bring your shades, bring your music, and bring a book with you. There's nothing like enjoying a book outside, and we have some great new selections available to San Jose Public Library! (And if you can't make it to the Beach, these selections are just as good in a park, an outdoor bistro, or on the patio). Relax and enjoy the summertime sun, along with some new books from our adult fiction genre.

Note: these selections can include dramatic fiction, fantasy, horror, and mysteries.
