Summer Reading: The List


My summer reading list is a bit of a jumble. I suppose I'll read it that way, too!

Americans Myths: What Canadians Think They Know About The United States Rudyard Key Porter Books Ltd, ed.
The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference Malcolm Gladwell
The Last Lecture Randy Pausch
Conspiracy Of Fools: A True Story Kurt Elchenwald
Love The One You’re With Emily Griffin
The Whole Truth David Baldacci
Chronicle Of A Death Foretold and Love In The Time Of Cholera Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Liberal Fascism: The Secret History Of The American Left, From Mussolini To The Politics Of Meaning Jonah Goldberg
A Complicated Kindness Miriam Toews
The Swallows of Kabul Yasmina Khadra
Audition Barbara Walters
The Third Angel: A Novel and Incantation Alice Hoffman
People Of The Book Geraldine Brooks
Team Of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln Doris Kearns Goodwin
The Glass Castle Jeannette Walls
Exile Richard North Patterson
Water for Elephants: A Novel Sara Gruen
Brick Lane: A Novel Monica Ali
One of my favourite authors, Barbara Erskine, has two novels being released in Trade Paperback in August. I’ve pre-ordered: Daughters of Fire and Warrior’s Princess.

Most have arrived from chapters.ca already, some are on order and should arrive at the beginning of next week and two or three will dribble in as I get to them.

Do you think I'll be able to do it? I'm sure I still have a few books from my list last year! But it will be a break from my Buddist readings of the spring and others on sprituality and organization!
