Summer Readin'



So, how's your summer reading going? Knocking more than a few off of that towering "to be read" stack that threatens to clobber you in the middle of the night? Good. Me too, even threw a few of my highlights up on the left. But, dang, my stack is growing short so I'm looking for suggestions.

Doesn't have to be crime. Non-fiction books work as do toothsome "literary" yarns. Sci-fi is okay, but I'm taking a loooooooong break from horror. No offense.

Been searching for the right "sports" novel if that helps. I've read a bunch of golf, baseball, sailing, climbing, and football novels...but what I'm really looking for is a fun novel about hockey or rally racing.

No political books, please.

Thanks.

Two novels I've read so far this summer I really enjoyed which may be on your radar anyway are Dove Season by Johnny Shaw and City of the Lost by Stephen Blackmoore.

A couple nonfictions really kicked my ass as well: Kingdom Under Glass by Jay Kirk and River of Doubt by Candice Millard. Of these four, if I were to give my strongest recommendation of only one, it would be the Millard book.

Thanks, C. Bought both Stephen and Johnny's and read them earlier this year. Will get on the rest soon. Mahalo.
