This summer's required (not really) reading list:

1. "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius" by Dave Eggars

I always heard this book was fantastic. A discussion in one of my classes today finally convinced me I needed to read it.

2. "Perfect Fifths" by Megan McCafferty

The fifth and final book in a series I've been reading since my freshman year of high school. If I had either the money or the time i would have already read it.

3. "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test

This book has been on my bookshelf since high school and I have yet to get passed the first page. That's going to change this summer.

4."Shiksa Goddess" by Wendy Wasserstein

A book of essays I started over Christmas break and then got too busy to finish.

5. "Me Talk Pretty One Day" by David Sedaris

Given to me as a gift, I think it's time I read more of his stuff other than "Naked".
