What Book's in Your Summer Bag?

Being as the weather is getting warmer, sunnier, frankly just all-around better.....I plan to spend every possible minute of every pretty day OUTDOORS!  Whether that's on David's deck (where I'm sure I'll spend the most time) in a fold-out chair, at the park, on the porch in New Hampshire, on the boat, where ever....I am going to be in desperate need of some good summer reading.  A book I can pick up and put down...nothing too heavy....something fun and "summery",  ya know.  Something that grabs me right off....not a "hang in there, the end is worth it" book.  Better writing than Danielle Steele or Mary Higgins Clark and not as "technical" as Patricia Cornwell.  I'm not looking for the meaning of life or how to change in 90 days or less....not looking for something that requires a notepad or a dictionary...not looking for something I have to go back and re-read the next day after I've put it down.  Just Some Good, Fun, Interesting, Relaxing in the Sun, Summer Reading!

I need your help. Read anything fun lately? Any suggestions? Here's a little about my reading habits (for better or for worse):

Things I didn't want to end. I was sad when I was down to the last chapter:

1. The Shack


2. Same Kind of Different As Me


3. The Perfect Husband (or anything Lisa Gardner)


4. Biographies - all sorts from entertainment to political to survivor stories


5. A Million Little Pieces


6. Water for Elephants


7. The Great Gatsby


8. Me Talk Pretty One Day (anything David Sedaris or other interesting humorous memoirs)


9. Stephen King (The Shining & Hearts of Atlantis remain my favorites)


10. Good For Gone (or anything Harlan Coben)

Things I can't get through (even though I know I probably should.....I know, I know):

1. by Tom Clancy


2. by Vince Flynn


3. by David Baldacci
