Summer reading means many things to many people. For some it's a light "beach read" while others like to tackle fiction that's a little more literary. Many readers can't go on vacation without a good mystery or thriller. But for other people, non-fiction is their preference. Here are some titles from all of these categories...
If you're looking for something a little deeper you might try Joseph O'Connor's Ghost Light, The Year We Left Home by Jean Thompson or The Storm at the Door by Stefan Block.
The Upright Piano Player by David Abbott, Break the Skin by Lee Martin and Tunnel Vision by Gary Braver are thrillers that will keep you on the edge of your beach blanket.
For those of who like the real thing, we recommend these nonfiction titles: Railroaded by Richard White, Floor of Heaven by Howard Blum, The Killer of Little Shepherds by Douglas Starr, For the Love of Physics by Walter Lewin and Carl Hoffman's The Lunatic Express.
In future posts we'll explore each of these genres in more depth and also other topics of interest to the avid readers in this community.
And don't forget there's a display in the library of "good summer reads" that has books from all of these categories. Something for everyone!
Happy Holiday Weekend Reading!
For some light reading, you'll want to check out Beach Trees by Karen White, Heat Wave by Nancy Thayer and My Jane Austen Summer by Cindy S. Jones. Notice a pattern here - beach - heat - summer...
