And who am I to resist the movement? (Though it should be noted, my reading lists are year-round.) Here's what I'm excited to read in the next 2 months:
Bed, David Whitehouse - Currently reading this story of a man who refuses to leave his bed. It's...different.
Beautiful Ruins, Jess Walter- One of my plane/beach reads for my upcoming trip to Puerto Rico! I'm excited to "travel" to Italy while reading.
Olive Kitteridge, Elizabeth Strout - The backup plane/beach read for vacation (I always bring a back up). I'm hoping it'll be different from what I'm expecting from the cover.
Midnight's Children, Salman Rushdie - What better way to return from vacation than with something literary, a cross between "a fairy tale, a furious political satire, and a meditation..." (from the front flap). We'll see how I do with a deep read in deep summer.
Shine Shine Shine, Lydia Netzer - If I can't hang with Rushdie, I've got Netzer on deck with an adventurous love story that'll take me to the moon and back.
Franny and Zooey, J.D. Salinger - Highly rated by almost everyone I know who's read it + On so many "Best of" lists = A book I'm bound to check out sooner rather than later, even though 15 years after publication isn't exactly sooner.
