During the school year, it can be hard to find time to read in between classes, homework, extracurriculars, and a social life. That's why summer is the perfect time to catch up on all those missed hours you could've spent reading. Many must-have books are set for this summer, and so you need to make sure you don't miss out on reading a single one.

1. "The Girls" by Emma Cline.

Emma Cline's debut novel follows the life of a lonely teenager, Evie Boyd, during the end of the violent 1960s in Northern California. She is quickly drawn into an infamous cult by an older girl named Suzanne, which leads her down a path she might not want to follow. The book is out now and is flying off the shelves and receiving all kinds of praise. Lena Dunham says that the book "reminds us that behind so many of our culture’s fables exists a girl: unseen, unheard, angry. This book will break your heart and blow your mind."

2. "Invincible Summer" by Swan Huntley.

First-time author Swan Huntley hopes to captivate audiences with her book "Invincible Summer," which comes out on June 28. The novel follows the lives of Eva, Benedict, Sylvie, and Lucien, four friends from college, and shows how their lives change over the course of 20 years. The story examines just how drastically plans can shift as they transition from dreams to reality. This will definitely be a must-read, especially for college students.

3. "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: Parts One and Two," by Jack Thorne.

Based on the stage production of the same name, "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" takes place many years after the events of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows." So many years, in fact, Harry is a husband, a father of three, and an employee at the Ministry of Magic. The story is said to focus on the relationship between Harry and his youngest son Albus. The book is actually a copy of the official script used for the play, so calling it a novel isn't really fair, but the story is based on an original idea from J.K. Rowling herself. Look for it on shelves July 31.

4. "The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo" by Amy Schumer.

Amy Schumer, everyone's favorite comedian/writer/actress, is set to release a highly anticipated memoir on August 16. Described as "the literary equivalent of a night out with your best friend," Schumer's book of true stories is sure to be hilarious as well as heartfelt. With the success of her television show "Inside Amy Schumer" and her movie "Trainwreck," the book will undoubtedly be a massive hit.
