I come from a family of readers. \u00a0As a kid, we usually spent family time shopping at the mall on Saturdays. My dad was a good sport; he often joined me, my mom and my sister on these excursions with a book in his back pocket. \u00a0He’d walk from store to store with us and pull out his book at each stop. \u00a0My father still carries a book in his back pocket just in case and has been know to read a book a day on vacation – something my husband just didn’t understand about me until we went on vacation with my whole family and everyone had their nose in a book. \u00a0So, I guess you could say that I come by my love of reading and writing naturally. \u00a0I’ve read some great books this Summer! \u00a0If you’re like me and looking to escape the Summer’s heat or enjoy a world far far away, here are my top contenders for Summer 2011:<\/span><\/p>\n \n So tell me dear readers, what are you reading this Summer? \u00a0Have you read any of the above?
