Reading list: Summer Reading List 2015
Carissa's summer reading list for 2015. The books fulfill specific categories. The list is nine books long: Three each for the months of June, July, and August. That leaves plenty of room for other texts but gives me a good blueprint for making the most of the season. First book: Memorial Day weekend. Last book: Labor Day weekend.
Books: 9
1.
by Michael Chabon
Note: A Michael Chabon Book. (I've read all of Chabon's novels and novelas at this point. All I have left are essays, short stories, and graphic novels. So write faster, Chabon, I'm counting on you.)
2.
by Vladimir Nabokov
Note: A Classic I've Neglected
3.
by John Logan
Note: A Play
4.
by John Green
Note: A YA Book. I read "The Fault in Our Stars" last year, and I really liked it, plus there's a movie coming out (always read the book first), so I'll give Green another chance. (He's no relation, that I know of.)
5.
by Ernest Cline
Note: A Recommendation by a Friend
6.
by Donna Tartt
Note: A Recent "Big Book"
7.
by Larry Tye
Note: A baseball book.
8.
by Ian McEwan
Note: An Ian McEwan Book. Why won't this book "shelve?" Sometimes BL is so buggy . . .
9.
by Gillian Flynn
Note:
back

Ellie should start on a book catalog site. I recommend LibraryThing for cataloging (it has a huge database from hundreds of libraries around the world) and Booklikes for cataloging and blogging/reviewing (it functions more like a social network).
Goodreads is now a big advertisement for Amazon (who we hate) and has been infiltrated by the bad corporate behavior. I only keep my account open to help advertise friends' books.
