Summer Reading
One of the main
things that I do in the summertime is reading! I absolutely love it and I am
always looking for new books to read. Unfortunately, it's super hard to find
interesting books! I use my wonderful nook to read books, and I've started to
just get samples of books so I can determine whether or not I want to actually
buy the books! Here's what I've read so far this summer.
1. I caught up on
the Pretty Little Liars series, and I've read #9, #10, and #11! They are
not hard to read in the slightest, but they make for a fun, quick summer
read!
2. I came across
Sorority Sisters when I visited Barnes and Noble in June, and I was
pleasantly surprised by it! It was about the friendship of a group of girls in
California and I had a great time reading it.
3. The Fixer
Upper is such a chick-lit book, but it got a lot better as it went along!
It's about a lawyer who is forced to move to Georgia when her boss frames her
for political bribery. She ends up renovating an old house that her family
owned. It sounds ridiculous but I liked it!
4. Gone
Girl. All I can say is BEST BOOK EVER. I am completely serious, I am so so
so obsessed with this book it's not even funny. When I finished it, I was in a
state of shock for the 24 hours following. I could not stop talking about it.
It's about a kidnapping/murder case...that's pretty much all the information I
can give away without giving too much away! READ IT!
5. I'm currently
reading American Wife. The author, Curtis Sittenfield, wrote the popular
book Prep, so I was interested to see what else they had written! It's very good
so far, and I hope to finish it soon!
Other books that I
have downloaded previews of are The Next Best Thing, Heat Wave,
Summer Breeze, Savannah Blues, Something Borrowed, and
Beach Music! If anyone has any suggestions, PLEASE let me know! I know we are all looking for some great summer reads!

I love Mary Kay Andrews! Savannah Blues/Breeze, Hissy Fit, and Little Bitty Lies are my favorites. If you read Something Borrowed then you just have to read Something Blue! You should check out Joshilyn Jackson and definitely get some Celia Rivenbark.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to take a look at "Gone Girl"; I've heard some great things about it. "American Wife" was a great read!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading Gone Girl next! Downloading it on my Kindle tonight and hopefully being able to read it tomorrow! I've heard that once you start it, you can't stop!
ReplyDeleteGone Girl is AMAZING!!! I could not put it down!!! When my summer classes are over I am picking up her other 2 books. If you like mystery/psychological thrillers you will love Gone Girl. It will keep you on the edge of your seat!
ReplyDeleteMary Kay Andrews books are great for summer! P.S. Her recipes are fantastic too.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the PLL books!!! And I can't get enough of the show either!
