My Spring/Summer III Reading List:

Since summer is officially here and I haven’t shared my spring reading list I decided to combine my spring/summer list. I will update this list if I find a good book to share with you. If you have any books you want to recommend share them in the comments section.

My Spring/Summer Reading List:

My Spring Reading List

Since I have been busy networking, studying, and taking trips, reading is something I like to do so I can take my mind of reading so much technical information. For the most part, I have been enjoying Malcolm Gladwell’s books. I read Outliers and I had to pick up the rest of his books from my local library!

My Winter Reading List

Last year I wanted to embrace my love of books again. When I was a little girl I used to read many books. On Saturday afternoons my cousin and I would walk to our local library and check out books. When I entered college I did not read as many books for fun anymore.

Towards the end of the summer I started going to my local library and read more. Not that long ago I was reading Elkement’s blog and she shared her reading list. This gave me the push I needed to share mine too. Thanks for the idea!
