Los Angeles, CA, June 26, 2014 --(PR.com)-- School may be out for the summer, but summer reading is in. From poolside to bedside, a sun-lit hill or treadmill, Americans are reading. Fran Briggs recently announced Part I of The Best of Summer Reading, 2014. The selections include mystery, humor, spiritual, urban literature, wit and wisdom.

"We are proud to recognize authors who are at the forefront in their genre; but we also seek to help readers make quality decisions as it pertains to their reading selections," stated Briggs, Director of Operations at eMediaCampaigns!.

The Best of Summer Reading list meets these objectives. It is organized by title, publisher, the author's name, a short synopsis of each book, and a link for additional information and purchase.

"The books were chosen to showcase the author's literary vision through their subject, creativity, impact, influence, and quality," stated Briggs.
