So, summer is a great time for my job. Less stress, less travel, and less hours! It is beautiful to get to work just 40 hours! Plus--I am finished with work at 4:00 and can squeeze in a workout before 5:00! This extra time equates to more reading time!
One thing I love most about summer is getting to read a bit more. I am a bit of a bookworm--actually, I think that runs in the family. (These pictures come from a small part of our Easter festivities--reading break!)
Anyway, I set a silly little goal of reading 25 books this summer. I know, it isn't super ambitious for many of you, but it will do for me. I have a lot of plans for this summer, and reading is only one of them!
I just finished book #1 of the summer--it only took a couple hours to read, so it was a great kick-off book! I read the third "Wimpy Kid" book: "The Final Straw." It wasn't the most difficult read of my life, but it was always good for a laugh.
I tell you, I can totally relate to these books. I am not in middle school anymore thankfully, but I do relive those days a bit when I read the book. I have experienced a ton of those situations before.
For those of you who also enjoy reading, feel free to send me book ideas. I am always game for a good read! Happy reading!

Great post Kasi! I love to read too. Right now I am reading the Eragon series. It is great. I am not a huge fantasy fan, but this is really good. Have you read the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins? It is excellent!! Another fav is the Maus I and Maus II books. They are a memoir'ish' written about the authors father and his experience in a WWII camp. Anyway I have tons of suggestions...check out my www.goodreads.com and you can see more and my reviews of them. Since your last post I have made plans to read the wimpy kid books myself. :-)
Kasi! i just love your girl!! I hope you will reach your goal! I know you can do it! :)
