This is what I think about when I think of summer. Relaxation, no work, beaches, water, and fun with my family, especially with my daughter who loves everything about the outdoors. But it's also a time when my reading gets less heavy. I tend to read books to sweep my cares away and that leave me with a hopeful or happy feeling. I'm just in that mood.
I'm not really sure how much reading I'll get through, but I do have a preliminary list for this summer.
I'd love for everyone to share their lists, if you have them, or just the book you're reading now -- I might end up adding them to my list.
Here goes:
A Long Time Gone by Karen White -- I'm reading this now and really enjoying it. The House on Mermaid Point by Wendy Wax Another World Instead: The Early Poems of William Stafford with an introduction by Fred Marchant China Dolls by Lisa See Tangle by Julie Cameron Gray Muse by Dawn Marie Kresan Grand Central: Original Stories of Postwar Love and Reunion (short story collection) Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Jill Mansell
Do you find that you read certain types of books because of the season? What books are on your list?
