So it's summer for us in the northern hemisphere, and time to kick back, relax, and enjoy the weather with a nice book. My question for you is; have you started working on a summer reading list? Do you have a number of books you'd like to start this summer?

My list
*Candide-Voltaire
*On the Road-Kerouac
*Ishmael-Quinn
*Catch-22-Heller (my goal is to actually finish it this time, not get bored and quit 300 pages in)
*East of Eden-Steinbeck
*Pussy, King of the Pirates-Acker (I want to finish this one, too)
 
GET ON GOODREADS AND ADD ME FOOL!

Keith Donohue - The Stolen Child
Naomi Novik - Temeraire
Ali Shaw - The Girl with the Glass Feet
Erick Setiawan - Of Bees and Mist

Happy times ahead :)
 
YES! Get on Goodreads MF. I'm on there (though hardly ever) but still!

Both of you guys read Ishmael and then we can have a little talk about it. I'll bring cucumber finger sandwiches.

My list:

Diet for a New America by John Robbins
Blessed Unrest by Paul Hawken

That's right. Two books. I'm sure I'll read/add more.. But those are the two that I recently bought and must read.
