My Summer (and beyond) Reading List

June 21, 2010 at 12:39 pm (Uncategorized)

Since I’m finally done school, I should now have actual free time to do one of my favourite things in the world… and that would be to…. READ! I like to keep lists of books that catch my interest so that I don’t forget about them before I have time to read them.

So this will be the place where I will do such that.

Books I own:

The Carrie Diaries – Candace Bushnell (summer)

My Sister’s Keeper – Jodi Picoult (summer)

At First Sight – Nicholas Sparks

A Complicated Kindness – Miriam Toews

Dewey – Vicki Myron

Books I don’t own:

The Great Gatsby – F. Scott Fitzgerald (summer) (summer)

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner – Stephenie Meyer (summer) (summer)

Dracula in Love – Karen Essex

Something Borrowed – Emily Giffin

Kings of the Earth – Jon Clinch

The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake – Aimee Bender

The Book of Negroes – Lawrence Hill

Both Ways is the Only Way I Want it – Maile Meloy

My Name is Mary Sutter – Robin Oliveira

The Madonnas of Echo Park – Brando Skyhorse

Dombey and Son – Charles Dickens

Freedom – Jonathan Franzen

so far…. 4 books down… one of which (My Sister’s Keeper) I had been reading since the movie came out!! It was during school so the reading was very sporadic. So glad to finally finish it.

Finally started taking books out of the library as opposed to always buying them, you would think when someone is trying to get a career in libraries that they would probably use them eh!? haha

Now about to start Dracula in Love, the same classic story, but from the point of view of the famous heroine (Mina Murray). Pretty excited, not gonna lie!
