Now that school has started I thought I should submit my report on What I Read This Summer. The highlights:
Special Topics in Calamity Physics- This was a complicated and original novel about a girl named Blue with a travelling professor father. She becomes friends with the Blue Bloods and gets wrapped up in a high-minded mystery. Slow and riveting.
In the Woods- A detective story written the way all detective stories should be written. The main character can't remember an incident where his childhood friends disappear and he survives. Then he has to investigate a murder at the same site.
The Unaccustomed Earth- Short stories by The Namesake author. I usually don't like short stories, but these were memorable.
I Was Told There'd be Cake- This is like David Sedaris meets Carrie Bradshaw. Enough said.
In the Presence of My Enemies- True story of a missionary couple kidnapped in the Phillipines for a year. Even kidnapped the couple strive to rejoice and be glad in the day. I was helped by this.
