This is what I am calling my summer reading list. It's more like a "I want to read these books" list as I really don't have just summertime to read. I could honestly get all of the Alex Cross books by James Patterson in order and just sit and read until I am finished.
I read a lot. Probably more than the average person. Most of what I read is what I refer to as "crap"....meaning it isn't classic literature and it isn't going to enlighten me to how to fix my life. I just read what I like...and most of it is, well, not crap, but fun and meaningless.
Janet Evanovich is one of my favorites. I have read the entire number series. I am patiently waiting for June 17th so I can start Twenty-One. I also like Debbie Macomber. I don't have any of her books on my list right now, but I am sure I will read something by her soon. I just got into Patterson's books. I have to admit, for such a prolific writer, he is awesome.
"Wicked" is a book we have had for a while. I didn't get it for the longest time, but now I do. Not getting it kept me from reading it, but now that I understand, I want to try again. I really want to see the musical and hopefully one day I will.
I wasn't as impressed with "The Fault in Our Stars" as others have been. I don't even want to see the movie now. It was good...just not what I was thinking it was going to be.
Maya Angelou has always been someone I admired. She worked her way up from nothing to become one of the most influential writers/poets in the world. That's why I want to read her autobiography.
The other one....well, that's one of my "fun and meaningless" books. I have read the Fifty Shades series, and this pre-dates those, so I thought why not.
What are you reading? What are your favorites? Leave me a comment if you want to share.
