- Bookslut: "When I was growing up I absolutely lived for the summers.[...] I could get all nostalgic here if I’m not careful, but there was something very cool about being able to read as many books as I wanted for three blissful months.

This was what summer should be: go to the movies every weekend (matinees of course), rarely put on any shoe other than flip flops, and read until your mother thinks your eyes will bleed. [...] In the spirit of those memories from long ago, I have put together a girls, get your beach blanket reading here list."
