President Barack Obama has released his annual summer reading list. On Facebook, he wrote, “I’ve read his summer reading list. “I’ve read a couple of great books this year and wanted to share some of my favorites so far. What have you been reading this summer?” Obama’s list:

The Candy House by Jennifer Egan
A Little Devil in America: Notes in Praise of Black Performance by Hanif Abdurraqib
To Paradise by Hanya Yanagihara
Silverview by John Le Carré
Black Cake by Charmaine Wilkerson
Family Chao by Lan Samantha Chang
Velvet Was the Night by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
