It is that time again to start thinking about doing something 'worthwhile' with my summer. For as long as I could remember, I always considered summer as this mythical time that I would do, read, eat, see, think, and experience more. I guess that is not such a bad thing if it motivates you to actually do, read, eat, see, think, and experience more. So, as part of that pattern of behavior, I present The Summer 2006 Reading List! Some will be first time reads and some rereads.
- Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West by Gregory Maguire
- The Know-It-All : One Man's Humble Quest to Become the Smartest Person in the World by A. J. Jacobs
- The Myth of You and Me by Leah Stewart
- Freethinkers: A History of American Secularism by Susan Jacoby

items to add to your summer read list:
by Chuck Klosterman (from North Dakota as another random incentive to read him...he talks about UND in his books as well as GF and the like):
Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs (laugh out loud hysterical--at least to me)
Fargo Rock City (I'm currently reading this and although I can't completely relate to the "hard rock" years, it's an entertaining read--and again--he talks about UND, ND, GF, and other things only folks from there can really relate to...)
as I get through my summer reading list, I'll let you know what's good and not so good, and if you could let me know what you have enjoyed, that'd be great!
