ready to read

Summer is the perfect time to read because you can actually enjoyyyy it. During school, it is nearly impossible to find a free moment to read something for pleasure, and if you do find that time, it is hard to be inspired to do anything but sit around and be lazy. During the summer, you can read while laying out, before going to bed and to pass time while making long trips. It is relaxing and enjoyable. During the summer, I always read at least 7 or 8 books...whereas I am lucky to read a single book that doesn't involve memorizing definitions and browsing through chapter summaries during the school year.

So, if you love reading like I do and are always looking for some good summer reads to get you out of the winter reading hibernation, here are my recommendations...

Remember the Scott Peterson case? I read this one a few years ago. If you're at all interested in law, then you'll definitely love this book. It's really haunting.

Before I read this book, I heard it was laugh out loud funny, but I didn't really believe it. Trust me, it is...I couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole thing. I made my boyfriend read an excerpt, and even though he tried to pretend he didn't like it, I know he did.

This is a touching story that is good for readers with all different interests...children, law, family, etc...
Jodie Picoult is a great author. You probably know her from My Sister's Keeper

My mom made me read this classic book a few years ago. It is the perfect girly beach read.

Great, feel good book. The title is deceiving, so don't let it scare you away!

I read the book before I saw the movie, and let me tell you, the book is way better (as they usually are.) It's one of those books you read in a day because you can't put it down.

I have deemed this my all time favorite book. It is absolutely perfect, in that it is  everything wrapped into one heartbreaking story.
