I saw several person doing things like this and I thought I’d share a list of my summer reads with you as well. Perhaps the books in my list don’t really classify as books fit for the summer, but I’m going to read them anyway and I think they’re perfect for whatever time of the year it is. I will read them indoors, when it’s raining outside. I will read them while I’m baking in my favorite spot under the sun, on the beach or in my backyard. I will read them at festivals and on holidays. I will read them on my way to wherever. Practically anywhere and at any time. It won’t be a list of chicklits. I don’t really like those. My list mainly consists of crime, thrillers, fantasy, perhaps a little horror. Yea, that’s what I’ll like to be reading. Whether we’ll get a nice or a horrible summer.
1. Before I wake, by Eric Bowman. I already started this one and I think it’s pretty fucking awesome. Keeps me excited and tense from beginning to the end. It’s lovely and horrible.
2. The Memory Game, by Nicci French
3. Frankenstein, by Mary Shelley
4. Wuthering Heights, by Emily Bronté
5. The Shining, by Stephen King (if I’ll be able to stand it: I didn’t finish the movie. Or I’ll try some other Stephen King books, I’d love to read 11.22.63)
6. Some more Dan Brown novels
7. The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini. I’ve seen the film and, well, can’t wait to read it!
8. Life of Pi, by Yann Martel
9. The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak
10. Well hopefully many more. Maybe I’ll start with Lee Child’s Reacher novels, or read some less known works of Tolkien. Perhaps some great classics I’ll come across – anyhow I’m looking forward to it, and I hope I’ll finish looooots of books! I’ll definitely try to keep you up to date – what books I did read and how I felt about them.
Lots to look forward to, and I hope to update you soon enough:)
(p.s. I started up my own account on the new social media site for booklovers: my profile on slice bookshelf. If you’re interested you can follow me to keep right up to date.)
