The sun on your face, a book in your hands, and not a care in the world–yes, this is what summer is made of! For most it’s also the time to relax and catch up on your pleasure reading. While it seems all of my Facebook friends are jetting off on vacation, they are also in need of book suggestions. This is a question I too frequently ask; “does anyone have any good book suggestions?.” Reading is one of my favorite things to do; the chance to get lost in a story, fall in love with characters of heroism, humility, and hilarity. If you are searching for a new book, here is a list I have read, are currently reading and planning to read.
