There is a massive flu outbreak in California right now…
Book report: A room with a view
To me, summer reading is all about old favorites and a little romance. On Saturday last weekend, I settled in with my copy of A Room With a View. This book is perfect for a quiet summer weekend! Read about darling Lucy Honeychurch’s Italian adventures and oh-so-handsome George Emerson. The characters in E.M. Forster’s book are so incredibly vivid that you almost forget that it was first published nearly a hundred years ago.
I recently placed nine book requests through the library for my upcoming trips to Santa Cruz and Hayfork. Until these books arrive, I am re-reading Pride and Prejudice. I found an illustrated copy on my bookshelf that I hadn’t read before. It’s another summer classic!
What are you reading this summer? Let me know in the comments section!

I remember doing a book report on A Room with a View in Mr. Binder’s english class at SLOHS! That and.. A Passage to India.. another great book!
Oohhh…Passage to India is another great choice from E.M. Forster!
I just finished the new biography of Julia Child, a great book!
Now its time to go back and re-read “Paris to the Moon”, the story of an expat family in France, I read it before I came and after 1 year and now another year has gone by.
Both of those sound like great book suggestions. Time for a few more library requests!
BTW – Did you see my reply to your previous comment here?

I hope you enjoy the books, I really like reading your blog!
How funny! I wonder where “Scotty” is these days!
