Summer time in the '80s meant one thing: Beaches, booze and ... books?!? Yes, for the first time ever, Stuck in the '80s has compiled a Summer Reading List. It's full of books set in or about the '80s. Plus, we have our listener picks for great books as well.

Listen to the show to find out why we like them. But we also promised people we'd list them here as well. So here you go:

Opening music: "Read a Book" by Falco 

Bonus song: "Everyday I Write the Book" by Elvis Costello

Gayle's book blog: Everyday I Write the Book Blog

Gayle's pick: "Mad World: An Oral History of New Wave Artists And Songs That Defined The 80s" by Lori Majewski and Jonathan Bernstein

Steve's pick: "World in My Eyes" by Richard Blade
