Rebekah started a summer reading group and I am soooo in! Thanks for letting me crash the party. :D
The deal is that we are supposed to set 'realistic' (yeah right - do you know me?) reading goals for the summer. If it's two books a week or one book a month - it's supposed to be reasonable for you. Just Read. Then share what you've read on your blog, grab the logo and post on your blog and link to Rebekah's post so others know you are participating and maybe more will join in. Be sure to leave a comment if you are joining so I can check out what you are reading.
We'll have a reading celebration in August. Sweet! Party!
So my goal - I'm going to go with a one book a week goal. That's pretty reasonable for me since I read pretty fast and I'm not opposed to stay up into the wee hours reading. I think that will leave me with 7 books for the rest of the summer.
Now what will I be reading. Hmm. I'm currently reading Inkheart by Cornelia Funke. It's been a slower read than I anticipated, I'm having a hard time getting hooked (which is odd for me). I also have The Host by Stephenie Meyer waiting to be read. I promised myself I would finish Inkheart first so The Host sits and taunts me on the coffee table. I also plan to reread the Twilight series in anticipation of August's release of Breaking Dawn which is already pre-ordered. I'm only going to count those as one book though since they are a re-read and I'm pretty sure I could read all 3 of them in one week. What else, well, I'm not sure. We'll have to see what the summer brings.
And now the best part. There are prizes! If you comment on Rebekah's blog and participate in August there will be prizes. Check it out!
Hope to see you joining in. :D

I had a hard time getting into Inkheart also... actually it was a good book, but if I remember right, I never really got into it, like I do on most books.
