Another one is 'The Great Gatsby'. The parties and the glamorous lifestyle depicted in the novel often give off a summery vibe. The warm evenings, the luxurious settings, and the complex relationships between the characters are all elements that are somewhat related to the idea of a summer novel.
Sure. 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants' is a great choice. It has that warm, summery feel with its story of friendship among four girls during their summers. The vivid descriptions of beach trips, new experiences and the bond between the characters make it a perfect summer - like novel.
I'd suggest 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. Although it's not strictly a summer novel, it has many scenes set during the summer months. The long, lazy days in the small town, the kids' adventures, and the exploration of important social issues all contribute to a rich reading experience that has a touch of that summer - time essence.
