Summer Reading: It May Last into Winter!

So, did you read a lot this summer? I know of a few readers who did, and it will earn them a book of their own!

One of the most enjoyable parts of the summer reading club is coming up with new books to read. I invited my buds to join the club for summer reading, and two readers took me up on it.

Both Karen and Stacy  tantalized me with their amazing reading lists. I think I found a few more tomes to add to my (growing) "to be read" list and was pleased to see an unexpected name among the authors. (Oh, there were more than a few favorites in there, too. I know how to pick them — friends and books.)

Karen read the following, for a total of 20 tomes:

1. The Bone Chamber, Robin Burcell
2. Misery, Stephen King
3. Coming Home, Mariah Stewart
4. Desperation, Stephen King
5. Feels Like Family, Sherryl Woods
6. The Sign of the Beaver, Elizabeth George Spear
7. Escape from Andersonville, Gene Hackman and Daniel Lenihan
8. The MacGregors-Alan Grant, Nora Roberts
9. The Walking Dead:Rise of the Governor, Robert Kirkman and Jay Bonansinga
10. The Hazards of Hunting a Duke, Julia London
11. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Maya Angelou
12. The Help, Kathryn Stockett 
13. Stoker's Manuscript, Royce Prouty
14. Sixth Sense, Ramona Stewart
15. The Eye of the Tiger, Wilbur Smith
16. True Believer, Nicholas Sparks
17. The Trap, Tabitha King
18. Soldier Dogs, Maria Goodavage
19. Global Warning: Are we on the Brink of World War III? Tim Lahay and Ed Hindson
20. Supervolcano:Eruption, Harry Turtledove

Speaking of books, who's in for a winter reading club? Let's choose a book to read it during the chilly winter months. (Just one because I know you're busy, and you'll have a few months to fit it in!)

Do you have any particular titles in mind? Do tell!
