It’s Time For Summer!

I love lists!! I especially love summer reading lists. During the summer months I work the same amount of hours that I normally do but for some reason, maybe the fact that the days are longer, I feel as if I have more time to read.

This year I will be spending a lot of time by the pool because I signed my daughter up for eight weeks of swim lessons. That means that I will have an extra thirty minutes of reading time each day. That’s heaven to me!

There are a lot of lists coming out right now but the list that I always keep an eye out for is NPR’s. Well, NPR actually comes out with several lists for summer so if you want to check them out, click here.

This summer I hope to pick up and finish the rest of the Harry Potter series. I stopped at book four (when I had kid #2) and never picked them up again. I got completely sidetracked by sleepless nights.

What one book are you looking forward to this summer?

Sizzling.. In a Good Way

It’s 110 degrees in So. California right now. I keep having flashbacks to that Twilight Zone episode titled The Midnight Sun, where the sun is getting closer and closer and everyone is in dire need of water. It’s enough to keep you indoors for sure!

For those lucky folks that are not at work right now, grab a nice glass of iced tea or lemonade or if you feel somewhat snooty you can make an Arnold Palmer (half tea, half lemonade), and check out NPR’s sizzling hot summer reads.

I can never get enough of this stuff.
