Summer Reading

Hi, my name is Melissa and I'm addicted to reading books for fun on my Nook.

I've spent so much of the last few years forcing myself NOT to read for fun because I have had so many school books to read. NO MORE! I will still read psych related books, but I have quite the summer list racking up and it seems like more are added weekly.

I started out with one that I wanted to read first before I saw the movie, Water For Elephants. It was a great book and I can't wait to see the movie version.


Next, I read a book about a story I already knew well. The Pioneer Woman (http://thepioneerwoman.com/) is a mom, blogger, wife of a hot cowboy who decided to write her love story and it is an awesome one. So I was more than happy to re-read it in its new book form!

Now I'm on to another pre-movie book as a quick read and it turns out that these types of books are great for working out. I read a ton of pages before I notice I've been working out for 25 minutes. Fun book.
This book is a little more serious; 1960s, black woman, working as "the help". It was suggested by several coworkers so it may make an appearance on the Nook this summer.
This book was also one suggested at work. Its not going to be a light read, but there is a group at work using it as a tool for work. So it may get read also.
There are others and more get added constantly. I can't wait to spend Memorial Day weekend at Therapy laying out and reading!! I LOVE not having assignments to stress over! Hope y'all have a great weekend getting ready for next weekend and that you all get a day off.
