Bedside Reading, the premier literary amenity for luxury hotels, returns for its 9th
season to the Hamptons this Memorial Day Weekend with its highly anticipated “Poolside Page-Turners” collection, bringing a curated selection of standout titles directly to guests staying at the East End’s most coveted properties.
As part of its signature summer tradition, Bedside Reading is proud to gift bestselling and buzzworthy books to hotel guests, transforming a simple stay into a memorable literary escape. New This Season: Bedside Reading is thrilled to welcome Canoe Place Inn &amp; Cottages in Hampton Bays to its growing roster of hotel partners—expanding its reach across the Hamptons with even more opportunities for discovery.
What Guests Are Reading This Memorial Day Weekend
This year’s collection offers something for every kind of reader—romance, suspense, historical intrigue, and soul-stirring storytelling—all designed to pair perfectly with long afternoons by the pool or beach.
A Dangerous Friendship by Robin Merle: One friendship. One betrayal. No turning back.
Blood Rivalry by Paul Attaway: Southern power plays, family secrets, and revenge that runs deep.

Butterfly Games by Kelly Scarborough: Beauty, power, and quiet manipulation—this game is anything but innocent.

Chasing The American Dream by Lorelei Brush: A bold look at ambition, identity, and the real price of the American dream.

City Nature by Martha Retallick: A striking reminder that nature is never far—even in the heart of the city.

Dear Missing Friend by Susan McGuirk: A tender exploration of love, loss, and the words left unsaid.

Have A Great Summer by Francesca Cocchi: For the Jersey girls—sun, sass, and stories that don’t stay on the beach.

Sacred Crossroads by Mitch Russo: A haunting tale of fate and choice, where the mystical meets the deeply human.

Where the Heart Meets the Sea by Kimbra Drake: Love, loss, and long-buried secrets unfold by the sea.
“Travelers today are looking for meaningful experiences,” says Jane Ubell-Meyer, Founder of Bedside Reading. “A great book discovered in the right moment—poolside, oceanside, or just before bed—can transform a stay. That’s what we deliver.”
With a presence in luxury hotels nationwide, Bedside Reading continues to redefine hospitality by offering guests curated access to both physical books and a digital collection including audiobooks, that inspire, entertain, and stay with them long after checkout.
Bedside Reading’s Memorial Day Weekend program will be featured at the following luxury properties: In East Hampton: Baker House 1650, Journey East Hampton, Mill House Inn, and The Maidstone. In Hamptons Bays, Canoe Place Inn &amp; Cottages. In Montauk: Beachcomber Resort, Marram Montauk, in Southampton: 1708 House, Capri Southampton, Southampton Inn.

The Church

Gayle Feldman, journalist and author of Nothing Random: Bennett Cerf and the Publishing House He built, invites you to dive deep into an epic story that The New York Times, in a rave review, compared to Robert Caro’s The Powerbroker. Her biography takes you inside the world of the founder of Random House, a man who later became a celebrity on What’s My Line? Cerf straddled books, Broadway, Hollywood, TV, and New York City. 
Feldman will converse with award-winning journalist and critic Cathleen McGuigan. The two will explore how Feldman wrote this landmark cultural history, and venture into Cerf’s star-studded life. Following the discussion will be a Q&amp;A with the audience and book signing. 
Nothing Random, twenty-three years in the making, was hailed by The Washington Post as “a work of biographical reclamation [and] a whole lot of fun… in its pages, Feldman depicts a lost world, at times a lost paradise, when New York, Hollywood and the literary life were at their most glamorous and privileged.”
Cerf’s star-studded life stretched from William Faulkner to Dr. Seuss; George Gershwin to Frank Sinatra; Gertrude Stein to Judy Garland; FDR to Henry Kissinger. 
He fought for free expression and helped transform which books could reach readers, and how they would be published and marketed. His legacy lives on every time someone reads Truman Capote, Ralph Ellison, Ayn Rand, Philip Roth, James Joyce’s Ulysses, and so many more.Former Sag Harbor residents Robert Loomis, Jason Epstein, and E.L. Doctorow were interviewed for this book, which was partly written in the John Jermain Library. 
A special thank you to our community bookseller, <a href="https://bookhampton.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Book Hampton</a>, for partnering with us for this program.

Go behind the lens with Francine Fleischer, an accomplished artist and Sag Harbor native known for her intriguing fine art photography. Using The Water in Between #9214, as a portal, Fleischer dives deep into the creative process behind her internationally exhibited series The Water In Between. Following the discussion there will be a lively Q&amp;A with the audience.
The Water in Between was inspired by the contradiction of purpose alive in a magical swimming hole, or cenote, that Fleischer discovered in Mexico that had once been used by an ancient civilization as a domain for human sacrifice. The series presented Fleischer with the uncommon challenges of photographing in an underground, water-filled, protected site over several years. Join us to learn more about the inspiration, technical achievements, and the methodology behind this body of work. The Water in Between #9214 will be on view downstairs in our studio space from April 23 – May 23 to view during exhibition hours, 
11 Am – 5 PM, Thursday – Sunday. 
This special insight Sunday has been programmed in tandem with our exhibition <a href="https://www.thechurchsagharbor.org/a-thousand-words-photography-at-the-new-yorker-curated-by-elisabeth-biondi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">A Thousand Words: Photography at The New Yorker.</a>Our spring exhibition will be on view through May 31st.
