My inner geek definitely comes out during the summer. Nothing makes me happier than a huge stack of books beside my bed. When we're on school schedule and in the midst of soccer practices, band concerts and school end-of-year activities, there's not much time for reading. When that last school bell rings, though, it's on!!
I've done some book reviews during the year, but now I need some suggestions from you for books I should pick up this summer. What have you read that's good?
I love to read a mix. Here some of my picks for summer:
Plain Truth or My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Piccoult (Warning: these are intense, not for a beach trip!)
Hinds' Feet on High Places by Hannah Hurnard
i am not but i know I AM by Louie Giglio
Anything by Karen Kingsbury
The Mitford series by Jan Karon (reading these has to be followed by a trip to Blowing Rock, NC)
Ellen Foster by Kaye Gibbons
Any of the Sisterchicks books by Robin Jones Gunn
The Last Sin Eater by Francine Rivers and also her novellas of women in the lineage of Christ
