Other Books Coming Out This Week:







What DON'T I want to read this week would be the question???  I already read (and loved) With Malice.  I also liked The Leaving and You Know Me Well.  I'm read 738 Days right now (and loving it) and I GOTS to read American Girls, My Lady Jane, Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies, and Frayed.  Also, I love a friendship book, so How It Ends is a yes... and I haven't read a gymnastic book since forever so Tumbling is on my radar also.  What are you adding to your Summer Reading List from this giant list?
