Summer Reading

August 8, 2010 By JulieK

Ever since the Easter Bunny brought me an ipad, I’ve been reading like crazy!!! I’ve always LOVED to read, but finding time to read and getting books has been a challenge… Not now, when someone can recommend a book, and in about 5 seconds (if that) I can purchase, download, and start reading!!! Here’s what I’ve read so far this summer… (The links are affiliate links to Amazon see my disclosures page for more information) So, if you’ve been wondering… here’s the answer to some of “What did you do all summer” :)

Pretty interesting behind the scenes view of the last presidential election… Thought it was an entertaining and interesting read… Didn’t take too long either :)

I found this very fast read HIGHLY entertaining… I love the quasi-sci-fi books, like the Harry Potter books, and just loved this one… Gonna get the others as well… Just haven’t yet…

LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this book… could hardly set it down, even though it isn’t a “happy” book, I just thought it was wonderful!

Hmmmm… I didn’t love this one… I thought it was just OK… The main character didn’t seem as scattered as I’d expect, and it just didn’t go where I wanted… I’m not sad I read it, but it’s not one I’d personally tell anyone to buy…

OMG… I read this book a million years ago, but wanted to read his newer one World Without End… So, I decided to reread this one… I’m so glad I did!! It was one of my all-time favorite books, and still is… it’s not all rainbows and sunshine… but the story’s so good, it doesn’t matter that it’s not all happy :) So glad I decided to read it again, and also glad I read it before World Without End… I don’t think it’s necessary to read them together, but I certainly set the mood!!

Yup… LOVED it… I don’t think I loved it quite as much as the first one, BUT thought it was great!! Another “couldn’t bear to put it down” book :)

Didn’t expect to love this… but totally did!!! It was recommended on a scrappy blog that I frequent, so I bought it… It starts with a kind-of (well, very) sad part of the story… And, you know me… I don’t like sad stories!!! BUT it is just a wonderful story from there… Really, don’t miss this one… I’d recommend it to anyone!!

What’s next?? I’m not sure… I have a couple of samples of books in my reader… we’ll have to see, the next couple weeks are pretty busy…
