Growing up, I would always participate in my local library's summer reading challenge, as well as summer reading assignments for middle and high school. Now that I'm in college, I've aged out of the library summer reading programs. I'm also not required to read anything at all this summer. However, now that I don't dread reading like I did growing up, I want to do as much reading for fun as I can before I have to read books that I am required to. So, here is a list of books I want to read/try to read before summer is over:
1. Sorority by Genevieve Sly Crane
2. Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard
3. Turtles All The Way Down by John Green
4. Inferno by Dan Brown
5. The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
6. Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson
7. Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
8. Matched by Ally Condie
9. M Train by Patti Smith
10. Just Kids by Patti Smith
11. The Careful Undressing Of Love by Corey Ann Haydu
12. Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
13. A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
14. Strange The Dreamer by Laini Taylor
15. The Summons by John Grisham
16. They Both Die At The End by Adam Silvera
17. Hear by Robin Epstein
18. The Girl In 6E by Alessandra Torre
19. The Leaving by Tara Altebrando
