Summer reading.

Last summer, between Abby and myself, we read 8,752 pages.  This summer we've challenged ourselves to read more than we did last summer, we don't have a set number, we just agreed to try to read more than we did last summer, but maybe we'll shoot for 10,000 pages this summer, just to make it interesting.

The rules are the same:

1. It has to be an actual book (although this year Abby can use her Kindle); magazines do not count.
2. You can re-read a book you've read before (I try to read the Little House series every summer) but you have to be honest and actually re-read the book, not just skim it.
3. Audio books still do not count (side eye to Abby, who tried to get them to count last year.  No.) 
4. We will pull out our list of classics again this year and continue to read through the books on it.

This summer we are also going to keep track of the books Finn reads, although his are limited to the new books we get from the library and they only count once (we tend to read his books over and over and over).  Currently, we like the Charlie and Lola books and he's also got two Cars (the movie) books that we read every single day for nap time and bed time and pretty much any time in between.  

Do you have any good summer reading suggestions?  I am currently into the second book of the Maisie Dobbs series and will probably read my way through the whole series this summer, but I always love a good suggestion!
