August 4, 2008 by Darlene

Well I completed the Summer Reading Challenge and I completed it early on top of it. This challenge was hosted by Kathleen at Rock Creek Rumblings. It was a lot of fun and I got a lot of the books I meant to read finished plus others I hadn’t planned on. So, I’ll post my list with links to my reviews.

June:
1. Hold Tight by Harlan Coben
2. East of Eden by John Steinbeck
3. The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory

July:
1. Turtle Valley by Gail Anderson-Dargatz
2. Comfort Food by Kate Jacobs
3. Unbelievable by Sara Shepard
4. The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry
5. Stone Creek by Victoria Lustbader

August:
1. Fearless Fourteen by Janet Evanovich
2. The Septembers of Shiraz by Dalia Sofer
3. Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict by Laurie Viera Rigler

To top it off I enjoyed all of the novels I read for this!

    Congrats! There is nothing better than finishing a challenge AND liking all of them. I’ve found that doesn’t happen too often for me. I recently picked up East of Eden, but dang that book is big!! Talk about overwhelming!

    Trish, lol-yes East of Eden is a big one. I know how you feel-imagine my thoughts of Atlas Shrugged-over 1000 pages-I’m nuts.

    Thanks Linda, I hope you’ll get to enjoy some of these books too.

    J.Kaye, you’re so busy all the time I don’t know how you keep up to your challenges at all. lol.

    Have a great day ladies.
