Jodi Patrick Holschuh's Summer Reading List
The Last Time They Met
by Anita Shreve
I am five chapters into this book and find it hard to put down. So far, it is as intriguing as The Pilot's Wife.
Bee Season
by Myla Goldberg
The premise of this book is that a family's dynamic shifts dramatically after an underachieving daughter unexpectedly wins a spelling bee.
I'm a Stranger Here Myself
by Bill Bryson
I loved A Walk in the Woods and am looking forward to reading Bryson's impressions of American culture upon his return from the UK.
Towing Jehovah
by James Morrow
God is dead and needs to be towed out of sight before anyone finds out. Morrow's books never fail to entertain.
Unless
by Carol Shields
A new book by one of my favorite authors about writing, family, and feminism. How can you go wrong?
Prodigal Summer

Three interwoven storylines about life in rural Appalachia. Seems like the perfect summer read.
