Well, Summer is about over, but here was my list.


Mother Night- Kurt Vonnegut
God Bless You, Dr Kevorkian- Kurt Vonnegut
Slaughterhouse-Five- Kurt Vonnegut
1984- George Orwell
Dead-Eye Dick- Kurt Vonnegut
Some Twilight Zone Scripts Book- Earl Hamner Jr.

I was planning on taking those out over the summer. I finished the first two. I'm in the middle of the third. I don't think I'll get the list by the time Summer's over, though.

1984 - we had to read that as a sophmore. it's an awesome book so i hope you get to read it before summer is through!

I have a whole stack of books to get through this summer. They include some Keri Arthur (first experience with her), Anya Bast, Nalini Singh, Julie Child's My Life in France, a bunch of random books you would never think to see together more than likely. :)

the jack reacher series - by lee child.

 

there's 15 of them!! i'm pretty sure that will keep me occupied this summer. So far i've read 8 of them, 7 to go!! :)

Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series --- by Ann Brashares
