It’s that time of year when kids join summer reading programs at the local library, vacationers pack their fun beach reads, and it’s just fun to grab a good book and curl up on a lawn lounger on the deck or beneath a shade true. The Wet Noodle Posse is doing a summer reading program of our own, trying to whittle down our to-be-read piles. My personal goal is to get caught up on the reading of all the Noodlers’ books and a few others. I’m reading Stephanie Rowe’s fun Date Me Baby, One More Time right now and should finish sometime in the next couple of days. Then I’ll consult my stack and see what strikes my fancy next.

So, what is the best book you’ve read so far this year? Any summer reading goals?

Am happy to report I wrote a little more today. No stunning page counts, but I think that’s because I’m coming back to the book after a two-week break and at a point that isn’t as clear in my head as the previous material. I know where I’m going, just have to figure out how to get there.

Watched the season three finale of Buffy today. Was so sad when Angel left. :(

    I finally read Dark Love and really enjoyed it. I also read Enchanted, Inc. and thought it was really cute.

    I finished Undressed a week or so ago and thought it was a really fun Regency read…let’s see, what else have I been reading instead of writing… ;-)

    Umm…I’m almost done with one of Karen Harper’s Elizabeth I mysteries (The Queene’s Cure) and am really enjoying it.

    I’m looking forward to Julia Quinn’s On the Way to the Wedding and Lisa Kleypas’s Scandal in Spring and also Nora’s new book–I think it’s the beginning of a trilogy.

    How’s that?

    Colleen, I read Dark Lover and really, really loved it. Lover Eternal is wonderful too. Eagerly awaiting the next in the series.

    I just finished Jill Barnett’s Days of Summer. I got the Arc, but just managed to find time to read it. Wow. That woman can write. So good. So good.

    My favorite book so far has to be “Twilight” by Stephanie Meyer… what a great introduction for me into YA! She’s done a wonderful job with this book and I can’t wait to read the sequel. I hope she can keep up the quality.

    Reading Secret Garden to my daughter, and reading a biography of Agatha Christie. Haven’t had much time for reading, but at our summer reading program the mommies get Book Bucks, too. Incentives work great! ha
