Book No. 7: The Storyteller

Well, that 2 for 2 Jodi Picoult! Such a great writer! Loved this book! It's my favorite so far in all the books I've read this summer!

This book is set in a modern age but revisits life during the Holocaust. Maybe it's just me, but I love to learn more about certain historical events. Even if it's just through a fictional book. It was so intriguing. Jaime even got annoyed with me during our trip to KY this past weekend because I was being a total book worm. ha! Couldn't stop reading.

I had hoped to have all 10 books read before September. My new goal is to finish the last three before the first day of fall. So that it will still count as a summer challenge. ha! Hope you've been reading some good books this summer too!

Book No. 4: Leaving Time

It was only fitting to use this picture because I read most of this by the pool or while I was floating in it. Ah! Yes, summer time is my favorite.

This was such a good book! I stayed captivated through out the whole thing. My mind was blown on the end and even after I finished it, I couldn't wrap my mind around it. Did not see the ending coming! The book is about a young teenage girl looking for her mother and the mystery of her disappearance. She connects with two completely different individuals to help her with her search. I learned more about elephants than I ever have which gave this novel a fun twist as well.

There were a few curse words so be advised for young teenagers wanting to read. Definitely a great read though! I highly recommend! I can't wait to read more books written by Jodi Picoult. 

Hope you all are having a great week and summer so far. ;)
