Summer Reading List

I have really got hooked into the Twilight books--much more than I thought I would. I have read both of them in 2-3 so far. I am trying to keep up with my other reading though. After I finish a Twilight book I try to read two other books--so far that has worked well for me. I finished New Moon yesterday morning and read Shark Girl last night and this morning. I will start Of Beetles and Angels today. I am hoping to get Eclipse before I leave for SLI, but it might not be good for me to have a book I really want to read while I am at camp.

Here are the books I have read since school has ended. I will try to keep this list updated throughout the summer.

Someone Named Eva by Joan M. Wolf
Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt
Shooting the Moon by Frances O'Roark Dowell
Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
The life and crimes of Bernetta Wallflower : a novel by Lisa Graff
