Summer Reading - Out of Control!
So, last night I was trying to organize my summer reading prospects since the summer is, after all, about half over. Here's what I have -
On loan from Abbie, I have Mistress of the Art of Death and The Serpent's Tale by Ariana Franklin. These are about a Medieval woman doctor who specializes in forensics and autopsies. I don't know how historically accurate they are, but I've read about 50 pages of the first one and it is quite good so far.
In paperback I have

In paperback I have
- The Color of Water by James McBride - someone recommened this to me, but I don't remember who. If you are reading this and you know who you are, I'll get to it soon. I promise!
- Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - 'nuff said!
- Mother of the Believers by Kamran Pasha - I read about this on the Unshelved blog months ago and decided to order it.
- See Under: LOVE by David Grossman - I've read that this book strongly influenced Jonathan Safran Foer's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, which I absolutely adore.
- The Tomoe Gozen series - This series is about a female samauri and her adventures. I read these years ago and gave them to KWKS to read. I just recently got them back and am looking forward to reading them again. At some point.
- And then there is the stack of other books I've picked up and bookstores and book sales and other book related purchasing opportunities. I'll get to them all. Someday.
- Sag Harbor by Colson Whitehead - According to Rolling Stone, you have to like this author in order to be cool. The book is great so far - I've read about a quarter of it.
- The Song of Roland edited by Charles Kenneth Moncreiff - I haven't read this since high school French class. I'm almost to the end, though.
- Her Wiccan Wiccan Ways by Traci Hall - It was free and sounded interesting...
- Hell to Pay by George Pelecanos - My new favorite detective fiction author. This is the sequel to Right as Rain
- Middlemarch by George Eliot - I've been promising myself I would read this for years!
- I Am the Messenger by Markus Zusak - Because I loved The Book Thief
- Ecological Intelligence by Daniel Goleman - I saw the author on Bill Moyers' podcast and was very much impressed.
- Other random free things I've downloaded because they were free and looked interesting
