| Just about anything by Charles de Lint is always a good choice. Wolf Moon is a nice, light read. I really don't see the need to get heavy with summer reading. |

| OMG! There's an after book? Please tell me...do Ellie and Lee ever get back together? That's all I care about. |

Wow, I'm a little late.
Actually, I'm not sure what it's about.. I just know that it's a Christian romance book rated PG-13 by a friend. *shrugs* Might as well check it out lol. |

| No!! Now you must read it!! It is so awesome. It's written by my favourite author, Francine Rivers. It is such a good book... I read it in one afternoon in the 7th grade. It is truly amazing. Read it. Now. |

Well, basically i'm in Jack's position, except i'll buy whatever looks good, and only one or two for a month.
Two books i'm planning on reading:
-The Catcher in the Rye (get that one done with)
-The Great Gatsby
And I was thinking of getting a Hemingway novel to see if I like his style of writing
Might even pick up the two most recent Harry Potter books (only read the first 4)
Oh, and, the book "Eregon" was a decent fantasy too. Even though it is one of the most overused story lines.
(normal farmer kid, picks up powerful artifact, friendly scholar tells him he was meant to find it, evil people come for the artifact and don't find it so they kill his only family, farmer boy gets mad and sets out on a quest for revenge, gets caught in a war, becomes a divine hero)
But other than that, i'll probably just pick up fantasy or sci-fi books with nice illustrations and a nice description on the back. lol... |

The after book is called While I Live.
Ellie and Lee don't really get back together though they do attempt it. It's really good and it explains a little bit about what happened to the kids and all. (That's all I cared about!) |
