Now if I were sitting on the deck of my imaginary beach house, 95 - 100 degrees might not seem so awful, but trapped in the city streets, it's oppressive.
It's also a really good excuse to indulge in my favorite summer activity - lazing away the day reading a good book.
This has been a really great reading summer for me. For some reason, last summer I was having a terribly hard time settling into any book (until The Hunger Games) but this summer is just one great read after another.
I just finished a marathon read of Terri Blackstock's Cape Refuge series which I really really enjoyed. I'm currently reading three books -
One for research - Miracles and Moments of Grace - Inspiring Stories from Military Chaplains - by Nancy B. Kennedy
Against All Odds by Irene Hannon - love her books!
and
Escaping into the Open - The Art of Writing True by Elizabeth Berg
I know I've been a really bad blogger; I think it's because I'd rather talk about reading than writing here. I'm thinking of taking this blog in a new direction to talk books instead of writing so ...
I'd really like to know -
What are you reading?
Do you have any great books to recommend?
