Summer Reading Rewards

Finished 22 books over summer vacation. Our public library sponsored a summer reading program for adults. Anyone reading 10 or more books was entered in a drawing for prizes. I won a grill/smoker, 10 pounds of charcoal, lighter fluid and grill tools. Fun, fun!

Books: Dead in the Family Charlaine Harris
The Shack William P. Young
Second Hand Michael Zandoorian
Take One Karen Kingsbury
Shades of Grey Jasper Fforde
Susannah's Garden Debbie Macomber
Ribbon of Years Robin Lee hatcher
Secret Keepers Mindy Friddle
Beachcombers Nancy Thayer
Home for Christmas Andrew M. Greeley
The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie Alan Bradley
The Walk Richard Paul Evans

Most thought provoking......Shades of Grey. I love Jasper Fforde and have read all the Thursday Next books.

Guess I'm back to children's books for now. Lots of book talks to do. Nothing gets a book circulated faster than a good book talk/pitch/promotion.
