I'm going to be quite ambitious this summer and attempt to read a book a week with one of my roommates and some other people and then some more (hopefully!) And as I already mentioned, true, it's very ambitious, but all of these are books I've been really wanting to read for quite a while or have been recommended by someone or another. Here is the list thusfar. If you are in CoMo this summer and are interested in joining our book a week club, read only a few of them, or just want to come to the weekly discussions, let me or Patrick know!
I'll try remembering to keep updating this with which ones I've read and hope to write my thoughts and reviews on as many of these as I can.
