Welcome Back Readers!

Welcome Back Readers!

Hello my fellow readers. I hope you had an amazing summer filled with reading, reading, and more reading. Please encourage new students to join our blog. Let's get it rolling this year! I'd like today's topic to focus on your favorite book of the summer. Tell us what you read and what you liked about it. I'll kick it off with my list. I am very excited because now that I am done with my master's, I can enjoy free reading again. Hoooooray! I've got to get back on the young adult reading train ASAP. Anybody out there have recommendations for me? I took a little break from YA this summer and read some adult titles. Here are a few I enjoyed:

The Gospel According to Coco Chanel by Karen Karbo
Perfection by Julie Metz
Dreaming in French by Megan McAndrews

Currently Reading: The Handbook for Lightning Strike Survivors by Michelle Young-Stone

If you need any recommendations for the new school year, try the following:

The Help by Kathryn Stockett
A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini
Looking for Alaska by John Green
The Death of Jayson Port by Jaime Adoff
Knights of the Hill Country by Tim Tharp
If I Stay by Gayle Forman

Have a great year and read your hearts out!
