It’s an easy question this week! It’s summer soon for my Northern Hemisphere readers and I don’t know about you, but summer always means a little more reading time. There’s nothing better than sitting on the beach, listening to the waves, soaking up the sun, and having a book in hand. I’m willing to live vicariously, friends.
So, my simple question is this:
What books are on your reading list for Summer? Or Winter, as the case may be for my fellow antipodeans!

My 2 book clubs have some good book discussions planned for the coming months. On my list are The Memory of Violets by Hazel Gaynor, Secrets of A Charmed Life by Susan Meissner, Waiting for Sunrise by Eva Marie Everson, and Thief of Glory by Sigmund Brouwer.

That’s some terrific reading you have there, Beckie ๐

My summer started at the beginning of this month, so I’m about halfway through my fifth book of the summer! Ended Lizzy & Jane and after a bit of debate. picked up The Wishing Season, by Denise Hunter. And my reading plans always change, since I own 80 that have yet to be read…and it keeps growing! But I think the next book will be The Choosing by Rachelle Dekker, which hopefully is in the mail by now! I think I’ll read Laura Frantz’s Love’s Awakening and Love’s Fortune, since I finished Love’s Reckoning just last week. I needed a break before continuing the series, since it was an emotional roller coaster! Wonderful, but definitely a heavier read {at least that’s what I thought}. Maybe I’ll get to Jody Hedlund’s Love Unexpected, Dani Pettrey’s Sabotaged, Lisa T. Bergren’s Remnants, Sandra Byrd’s To Die For…the list goes on. So basically, I have no idea what I’ll end up reading!

Hey Marie – well, you do have a great summer reading list going on there ๐ I recommend them all, although I haven’t read Rachelle’s yet. It’s on my list, too!

I’ve got quite a stack but my first focus is Special Education Law by Wrights Law. I’m halfway through and when I finished I plan to go back through with a highlighter and sticky-flags. I’m busying armoring myself for some meetings when school starts in the fall. I’m also halfway through Trim Healthy Mama – sounds like a lifestyle I should shift my family toward. And then I’ll finally have time for fun reading – I’ve got the last two Melanie Dickerson’s so catch up on, as well as the last two Lesley Livingston’s and Perfect Glass by Laura Anderson Kurk. Of course, I’ve got a mountain more but those are all the highest on the list. ๐
May 28, 2015 at 1:29 am
These are a few titles from the top of my list…
Lady of Conquest by Tamara Leigh
A Worthy Pursuit by Karen Witemeyer
