Celebrate Summer Reading on Goodreads

hi

As soon as I get home I’m going to be reading the entire “The mortal instruments” series by Cassandra Clare. I’m ready to immerse myself in a world other than global questions and Russian politics.

So I read this book in 5th grade it was so good there was
1. Goldfish Boy
2. Ungifted
3.Refugee
4. Super gifted
5. Falling over sideways
All of these books were amazing and wonderful to read. Great Books to read during your free time!

Is it blasphemy to say that I’ve postponed all my audio Libby holds and plan on letting my bookshelves gather dust this summer? I’m loving this weather and I’m more of a winter weather reader.

Well in Vermont it is currently 49 degrees and pouring rain! What I would give for summer temps....heck even SPRING WEATHER! It's never this late.

But my plan this summer is to read all of Lainie Suzanne's NEXUS SERIES from beginning to end. I've already read the first three but I'm planning to restart and go until the last one published.
*FATE (Nexus special addition extra)
*NEXUS (The Core Of Erotic Desires)
*SOLEIL
*DECEIT
*WICKED
*PERNICIOUS

And I also have several unread books by M.LEIGHTON
*TEQUILA HIGH tops the list!

Then there's my love of Lorelei James cowboy books. Still catching up on the last 2 of the ROUGH RIDER series books and
*UNBREAK MY HEART (Rough Rider's Legacy)
has been on my nightstand begging to be opened. Have to get on it!

Anytime ZOE CHANT releases a new book, I have to check it out. Currently reading:
SHIFTING SANDS 9th BOOK "TROPICAL LOIN'S LEGACY."
I can't wait for Scarlet's finale!

But of course, my kindle and book shelf are full of more unread books so I best get cracking...a.k.a. #READING

Have a great day and may warm sunny temps find us all soon!
Happy Reading,
Michelle Marie CG <3

Actually, it's always made more sense to me to read more in the winter because the weather isn't as nice as in the summer so I'd rather stay in. I'm in America, but it sure hasn't felt like summer in Wisconsin yet. I'm trying to work my way out of an awful reading slump which isn't weather related.

Both are great series! Hope you enjoy!

Going to read Space City by Jared Austin and Quartz by Rabia Gale.

I will be reading the Harry potter series and the chronicles of Narnia.

I read quite a bit from Dec. 2018 until now but I have had reading slump too. Sometimes it's due to my chronic pain and I can't focus. Other times it's because I get hooked on a Hulu or Netflix show.
I hope you feel up to getting back into reading more soon.
Best wishes,

At last the bird sings, is fun and love.

not sure yet, right now, Dear Mr. Knightly. Next maybe to kill a mockingbird or jekyll and heide (if I'm not still too creeped out by it :P)

It would be good to consider all those in the sth hemisphere where winter is coming. It is the middle of Autumn here in Australia. Perhaps something like holiday reading or mid-year reads?

omg can you red book s on this I need to know it is freaking me out.

oops, can you read books on this it is freaking me out.

Good choices; The Lunar Chronicles are truly one of the most amazing series eI've ever read in my entire life <3333!!

Love it! I've considered buying all of them at once, too: )
Enjoy, Susan!

For Summer, I'm more of a beachy reader and most enjoy books from Deep South or East Coast: Mary Kay Andrews and Elin Hilderbrand. To be read preferably poolside or at the beach. :)

Still, I love reading kids books and participate in my local library's ARKS, Adults Reading Kids' Stuff, program. An excuse to read remaining Nancy Drew books I didn't read growing up and new YA books!

Happy Summer Reading!

Gonna read Lunar Chronicles, Ember in the Ashes, the Villains duology, The Raven Boys, and good ol’ Sherlock. Might throw in some Morgan Matson for the summer-y feels!!!

My summer goal is to read the nonfiction titles that are stacked on the piano bench - and to read at least 5 books on my Kindle.

I am going to spend my next summer in Edinburgh. Some Scottish recommendations, please? :)

I’d be interested in a summer reading challenge like last year as well! 🙂

I'll be reading THE HIVE by Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnson.

I am having a Harry Potter marathon too .

Hello everyone how are you I'm searching some lovely books to keep me company & my mind relaxer.

The best book I recently read is Kristen Hannah’s The Great Alone ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just planning on starting A song of ice and fire, which is mostly related with the coming of winter, not much of a summerly read 🤣

I’m going to read Warrior Cats and the Survivors series by Erin Hunter

Man, I still have to finish the Lightbringer series.

Noted :D
Hope this book interesting... haha 😆

oh i remember those from the school days. Nancy drew and then Dana Girls.. loved the series..

Yes

The summer isn’t any different for me except that I love the sunshine and being able to go outside without a coat. Lol
My life always stays the same. 😕
I’ll continue pleasurably plowing through my 19th century finds via LibriVox.
I’m hooked on audiobooks now. And especially since they’re free.

Loved The House of Night Series! Read the first one from the library and then bought the books as they were released. My daughter read them next. Now we are saving for my granddaughter.

I will be rereading "Riding Fire", it's about a forest ranger who was the first back-country motorcycle firefighter. Fire season is upon us!

Not sure where my summer reading list will guide me, BUT I recommend any book written by Beatriz Williams. Excellent summer reads!

By this summer I expect myself to through a lot of books and try to fantasize them all.

Yes, there'll be a summer reading challenge. Glad to hear you're as excited as us about..."

How much longer? 😟

Jay wrote: "How much longer? 😟"

Sorry for the wait — I cross my heart it's coming! 😊

Catka wrote: "Is there going to be the summer reading challenge, like last year? That was fun."

I was wondering the same thing!

Summer? It’s 34 here in Minneapolis tonight!

From Rachel: “It just doesnt feel right to call it a summer reading challenge when there are people here from all over the world where the seasons are all different. Its all good for Americans but when about the rest of us here who arent?”
Maybe the “Mid-year challenge” or the “June-September challenge?”

I am looking for another great MC series. I have read so many at this point that I don't know if there are many left. I tend to like series that are longer than three books. I have some that I am reading about the children and grandchildren....those books are about 26 books deep though!! Any new suggestions would be greatly helpful. I keep my grandbabies in the summer and nap time is my reading time (if I don't fall asleep myself)!! Thank you so much for the help!!

I know people think the list is American-centric based on some of the comments here, but Summer isn't here in America yet either, so it is not a list just for Americans. Our Summer starts June 21
