Definitely Mockingjay! Hunger Games is one of the best YA series out there and I can’t wait to see how Collins wraps it up.

I like Allegra Goodman and haven’t read her in quite a while. It was good to see she has a new book out. Girl in Translation sounds like something I would like too.

Looking forward to it more than any other book coming out this summer! Would love to have a Mockingjay pin!

I placed a hold on Girl in Translation. I like these lists that help one to choose good reads.

I think Girl in Translation & Invisible Bridge look good.

Just put a hold on Mockingjay. Must say that I am like everyone else in that this is the most anticipated book this summer for me. A bunch of my favorites have been coming out this spring…Kim Harrison, Charlene Harris, and Patricia Briggs all have new books in there series.

I’m looking forward to reading Justin Cronin’s The Passage. On a dare from his 9 yr. old daughter, who wanted her dad to write a book about a girl who saves the world, Cronin has written what some are calling an epic and a new horror classic.

Love, love, love this blog! I’m reading “The Handbook of Lightning Strike Survivors,” by Michele Young-Stone. The story is both quirky and poignant, about two survivors who
eventually find each other, after wading though the morass of emotional and physical injuries from being struck. Along the way the reader learns lots about lightning.

I am looking forward to reading The Body of Death by Elizabeth George. I have enjoyed all of her previous books. I am anxious to learn how Inspector Lynley is doing after the death of his pregnant wife.

Listening to “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” presently and the reader is excellent! Looking forward to listening to “The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest” this summer!!

Look forward to “Girl in Translation” and the “Cookbook Collector”. The second piqued my interest because of my own extensive cookbook collection. Love summer reading.

I’m intrigued by The Cookbook Collector — thank goodness it’s not out until July so I have time to clear out my stack of pending reads!

I can’t wait for Sebastian Junger’s WAR because he’s been on NPR and I’ll see him again him June 1 when he’s at the Tattered Cover.
Written by Liz about 2 years ago.

I must agree with Betsy, “Invisible Bridge” looks good. However, nothing beats the excitement that I feel for “Mockingjay”. Hopefully, it will live up to it’s predecessors.

I can’t wait to read “The Girl Who Fell From the Sky” by Heidi W. Durrow, winner of the Bellwether Prize for Fiction

Loved Truly in “The Little Giant of Aberdeen County” by Baker. Truly is a rich character tapestry.
Written by Melissa about 2 years ago.

I can’t wait to read Mockingjay. I just hope Suzanne Collins give us a nice ending and not some kind of a cliff hanger. I hate it when authors toy with my emotions like that. and of course it goes without saying:
GO TEAM PEETA!

Girl in Translation and The Invisible Bridge look like great reads for this summer! The Invisible Bridge is right in line with my interest for historical fiction set during World War II.
Written by Sherri about 2 years ago.

I have a lot of reading to do this summer. I can’t wait for Mockingjay, but in the meantime I’ll read This Body of Death, Girl in Translation, The Passage ( I couldn’t resist the comparison to King’s The Stand) and The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner.

I Curse the River of Time sounds intriguing. Loved Petterson’s style in Out Stealing Horses.
