Another List

Is it too late for a summer reading list?

Summer lasted here until it snowed last week.  And I'm not really kidding.  It was 80 degrees one day, and the next it was 18.  No exaggeration.  Deserts are weird.

I feel like I read a lot of books this summer, but I think that's because many of them were actually short stories.  And because summer lasted until the first week of November according to my version of the world.

An Abundance of Katherines
Looking for Alaska
The Fault in Our Stars all by John Green

Dorothy Must Die
No Place Like Oz both by Danielle Paige

Before I Fall 
Delirium
Pandemonium
Requiem all by Lauren Oliver

The Giver (again)
Gathering Blue

Divergent (again)
Four the Initiate

The Hunger Games

Prince Caspian

I Survived the Nazi Invasion, 1944
by Lauren Tarshis (with Connor)

The Diary of a Young Girl
by Anne Frank (I decided Connor wouldn't be that interested in this one, despite the fact that he really liked I Survived the Nazi Invasion, so I read it alone)

Robe of Skulls
Bag of Bones
The Heart of Glass
all by Vivian French (with Connor, it's his new favorite series - Tales from the Five Kingdoms - and there are more books)


Each and every book on this list was wonderful and I can recommend all of them.
