Summer Reading

We had a good discussion about _Stormbreaker_. Everyone seems to agree that reading books outside of our normal reading zone is a good thing to do. I enjoyed this book a great deal, myself. It makes me want to actually see a James Bond movie (I never have)!

There were a number of suggestions about what to read over the summer--ah, a lovely problem to have. For a complete list please go to the book club web page. Please feel free to keep making suggestions and telling us about what you are reading. Some of the suggestions included: Books in the Midnighter series by Scott Westerfield, _The Other Boleyn Girl_ by Philippa Gregory, _A Long Way Gone_ by Ishmael Beah, books from the Sookie Sackhouse series by Charlaine Harris, books by Randall Ingermanson such as _Oxygen_ and _The Fifth Man_ and the book _Congo_ by Michael Chrichton as well as a number of other suggestions.

Final Book Club Meeting of the School Year

Tomorrow is our final book club meeting of the school year! We have managed to read a number of interesting books and have had the chance to move beyond what we might normally read on our own. Hopefully, people will come tomorrow with some ideas about summer reads. I just finished two great young adult books: _The Graveyard_ by Neil Gaiman and _Jellico Road_ by Malina Marchetta. I would highly recommend either of these books!
