Summer heat. Summer rain. Summer thunderstorms. Summer nights. These are all good reasons to cuddle up with a book and read. Below are my picks for summer reading and why I've chosen them:
CRIMINALS - My family's life on both sides of the law by Robert Anthony Siegle. Deeply personal. A memoir. Sielge lives in NC with his family. Who is his family? Hell's Angels!
1) WACKY TALES OF ANIMAL ANTICS - Sterly, best dog ever by Aidan Cassie
2) DID YOU EAT THE PARAKEET? - By Mark Iacolina. Two great books to read with children and you'll love them too!
THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO - by Taylor Jenkins Reid. A story about an old Hollywood, reclusive, glamorous starlet. You probably won't be able to put the book down.
THE BANKER'S WIFE - by Cristina Alger. A tale about a former financial analyst and corporate attorney mixed in with real-world life experiences, inside trading, a plane crash in the Alps. A great companion for wine lovers who love to drink and read.
SPYING ON WHALES - by Nick Pyenson. If you love to go on a whale watch like me, you may fall love with this story. The author is a curator of marine mammal fossils for the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History. His evidence based on predictions will leave you gulping for air! It's a great voyage for summer reading!
And of course, if you can't find what you're looking for, you can do what I like to do when I just want to discover something new - ask for the BIG DICTIONARY at the Library. This one is Webster's New International Dictionary, second edition, unabridged, 3,350 pages, cost $1,300,000.00, or you could sit there and randomly pick your pages!
Happy reading to all! Patricia
