The fireworks show is a three-decade long tradition staged over Three Mile Harbor in East Hampton. The fireworks almost faded into history but in 2009, The Clamshell Foundation revived the popular event and has shepherded it every year since. A popular event, it was a favorite of one of The Clamshell Foundation's founders, Rossetti Perchick. Listen to the fireworks music simulcast on WLIW-FM with host Brian Cosgrove.(Shutterstock image)

While much of the world is scrolling, Hamptons guests are reading.
This Fourth of July weekend, Bedside Reading is placing a curated collection of books in luxury hotels throughout the Hamptons, giving travelers something increasingly rare: a chance to slow down, escape, and discover a great story.
The Hamptons has always been a place to get away. This weekend, these books are helping guests get away even further.
This year's collection features everything from children's adventures and middle-grade fiction to thrillers from bestselling authors, romance, memoir, personal growth, women's fiction, and books exploring the future of artificial intelligence. Whether guests are looking for an escape, inspiration, a page-turning mystery, or a fresh perspective, there's a book waiting for them.
Here's What They're Reading This Fourth of July
Children's Adventure
The Captain &amp; His Crew by Meredith Newman 
A fun maritime adventure that invites young readers to climb aboard and set sail with the captain and his crew. Along the way, they may spot whales, treasure, pirates, and plenty of imagination.
Thriller
Not What It Seems by Lisa Jackson 
Crime writer Nikki Gillette and Detective Pierce Reed are pulled into a chilling Savannah murder case where each victim is found with a mysterious numbered stone. As the bodies multiply, they must race to uncover the killer before the next clue turns deadly.
Romance
Just My Luck by Lena Hendrix 
A single mom takes a risky chance on a marriage of convenience with her grumpy boss, hoping it will help save his brewery. What starts as a practical arrangement slowly turns into a heartfelt, small-town romance full of tension, humor, and unexpected sparks.
Personal Growth &amp; Creativity
A Joyful Way of Being by BrittMarie Eksell 
This inspiring guide encourages readers to reconnect with creativity, self-expression, and joy in the middle of life. Through reflection and artistic exploration, it shows how creativity can become a path to meaning, healing, and personal renewal.
Women's Fiction
Greater Expectations by Angela Terry 
Allison James is finally rebuilding her life with a successful business and a loving relationship, but her deepest dream of becoming a mother is still uncertain. As pressure, love, and timing collide, she must decide how far she is willing to go for the future she has always imagined.
Technology, AI &amp; the Future
We Are As Gods by Steven Kotler and Peter Diamandis 
This thought-provoking book explores how AI, robotics, genetics, longevity, and other exponential technologies are giving humanity extraordinary new power. It challenges readers to build the wisdom, resilience, and purpose needed to thrive in an age of abundance.
Motivation &amp; Self-Development
The Permission Mission by Dr. Cindy McGovern 
This motivational book encourages readers to stop waiting for outside approval and start giving themselves permission to move forward. With an empowering, practical tone, it reminds people that confidence often begins with one simple decision: saying yes to yourself.
Middle Grade Adventure
Trapped by Bella Olson 
Eleven-year-old Ava must use her brains, bravery, and imagination to escape a strange facility run by an evil scientist. With riddles, laser traps, new friends, and a magical chicken named Rocco, this is a fast-paced adventure full of humor and heart.
Memoir
Always Hungry by Jane McGuinness 
In this raw and darkly funny memoir, Jane McGuinness shares her journey through emotional eating, divorce, motherhood, discrimination, and self-discovery. What begins as a story about hunger becomes a deeper search for freedom, identity, and healing.
