Irony Alert. Or Maybe It's Just Murphey's Law.

So, when I got back from college, I finagled it so I had one free bookshelf for library and to-read books.

I was thinking this would
It's already full, even before I got to the library.

The Summer Reading List:

All The Fishes Come Home To Roost, Dracula (the original), The Sound & The Fury, Nation, The Audacity of Hope, Coin Locker Babies, Blood Cult, White Witch Black Curse, Wicked Lovely, Song of the Lioness (reread), Finders Keepers, Whitechapel Gods, Kitty & The Midnight Hour (reread) A Necessary Evil, Soul Music, Soon I Will Be Invincible, and a couple volumes of Basara

*deep breath*

Just to let you know? All the books I mentioned? Don't all fit of my To-Read bookshelf. So much for my clever plot.

If you haven't read Pierce's "Terrier" yet, do. It's fabulous.

Same with most of Sarah Dessen's work (I'd reccomend "Just Listen") and I'm really enjoying a book called 'Soon I Will Be Invincible" which is kinda of similar to Watchmen expect with actually likable characters and a sense of humor. Also, for a good mystery, The Killing Hour by Lisa Gardner.

GAH I loved 'Just Listen', as well as 'The Truth About Forever'. Seems like we have somewhat compatible tastes, so I'll check out your recs sometime soon. Haven't read the other ones you suggested.

Have I recced you 'Hunting and Gathering' yet? It's such a good book to read when you're cold. Warms your heart right up. ^_^

We Do have very compatible tastes. And no, I haven't read hunting and gathering.
