So I'm thinking of creating a summer reading list for myself. I mainly want to feel justified for laying around the house all today in my pj's and I figure that if there's some kind of list to be checked off, everyone will know that I'm being productive. In actuality, my summer break is only going to be about 8 weeks, but I'm thinking on top of grad class and tutoring, I can knock out at least 15 books or so (this is only because my class isn't heavy on the reading side).
Here's what I'm thinking. I need your feedback and suggestions.

The Bean Trees and
Flight Behavior by
Barbara Kingsolver

O Pioneers and
Collected Stories by
Willa Cather

Little Britches by
Ralph Moody (<----------- thanks, Rapper L)

Paper Towns by
John Green

Bossy Pants by
Tina Fey
What else? I'm open to any books of any kind! Be a pal and help me out because after summer I won't have another spare minute to read for fun...
I think Tina Fey is hilarious, so I liked Bossy Pants. It's a very easy, fast read. A book that is on my list is called The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry. I've heard that if you like the Potato Peel Society, this is a good bet.
ReplyDeleteLittle Britches is great! I like several of Ralph Moody's books, but this is the one I read to my kids.
ReplyDeleteSo reading about reading is making me want to read tonight! Not a kid's book, not a how-to book, not a teacher book - hhhmmmm
