Time for that last burst of summer reading. Here are the summer’s bestsellers to help you choose. Hot off the presses: “Breaking Dawn,” the latest and greatest, much-anticipated new book from Stephenie Meyer. Also new out this month are the latest novels by Robert Crais and Paulo Coelho. For nonfiction, new to the list are “Good Night Bush: A Parody,” reflecting much of the political tone of the times, and “Man, Interrupted,” the autobiographical story of living with obsessive compulsive disorder. Many of the children’s books continue the series reading that’s so popular: the new “Bone No. 8, Diary of a Wimpy Kid,” and Clique Summer Collection, to name a few. Enjoy your summer books and your time with family and friends.
