Summer Reading Suggestions

For young adults and young minded adults I recommend The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. Also, great light reading for young people middle school and up... The Percy Jackson series (5 books) a swift moving series of books based on Greek Mythology laced with action, adventure and humor written by Rick Riordan.

I was very unhappy to learn that the Nicholas Flammel series that began with The Alchemyst is really a six book series. After reading the successive books The Magician and The Sorceress I can't see Michael Scott pulling off the series well. Frankly, I am tired of the story and peeved that it has not ended yet.

Finally, for any Stephanie Plum Mystery lovers there is a new book out. It is entitled Finger Lickin' Fifteen, by Janet Evanovich. Funny, fast paced and with the added summer thirst for adventure and some action it fits the bill for good summer reading.

More suggestions to come...
