I began blogging
about summer reads a few years ago and have just enough time between chapters
and kid camps to share some new suggestions. Grab a good book, spread a beach
towel and enjoy the summer! Feel free to share your recommendations too.
The Pursuit by Janet Evanovich and Lee Goldberg
Evanovich
fans should try this new series with FBI specialist Kate O’Hare and
international con man Nicolas Fox. O’Hare caught Fox after a long search, then
the FBI recruited him to help take down some of the world’s most dangerous
criminals. Now, O’Hare has to work with the thief she stalked and captured. Fox
and O’Hare share witty banter, and explore their romantic feelings, as they
race to stop ex-Serbian military officer, Dragan Kovic, before he endangers
thousands of American lives. I just finished The Pursuit and would say it’s a great summer read.
The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley
I
picked this up in a local bookstore and just started reading. So far, I like
main character Flavia
de Luce, an 11-year-old sleuth with a brain and some pluck. I’m interested to
follow her on her investigation of a murder in the English countryside circa
1950.
Stone Cold by C.J. Box
After
finishing my first C.J. Box thriller, I immediately went out and bought
another. I enjoyed Box’s description of wide-open spaces and the dangers
inherent in the remote Wyoming wilderness. In this book, Game Warden, Joe
Pickett, has been assigned the task of looking into a suspicious ranch owner in
the remote Black Hills of Wyoming. Danger lurks beneath the surface and it’s
sure to be a wild ride to the end.
