Confessions, Part Deux

The Official Summer Reading List-a-Palooza is tumbling along nicely. In fact, I have now subdivided it into 3 categories which are still being populated:

1) 10 books I will read this summer
2) Books I have already read but that YOU should read this summer
3) Books I have not yet read, but that we should BOTH read together if we make it through our respective lists above and require further reading material.

Genius, right? Yeah, I thought so, too.

The list is still coming along, so if you have not yet submitted your suggestions I will humbly implore you to go back to The Original Post and leave your suggestions in the comments or, as my awesome Brother-in-Law did, email them directly to melkist at gmail dot com.

Also, if you want to include a mini-review of each book as he did, I will crown you with Mucho MeL Cred (way cooler than street cred) as a fellow Book Geek. Of course, Brian has more claim than most, what with being an officially published author and some sort of associate editor-type dealy for Sci-Fi Channel's print magazine. (Sorry, I'm sorta fuzzy on the details, but I do know he gets to talk to publicists and ask for photos of hot babes. I suspect it's not nearly as porno as it sounds.)

So if you want to get your suggestions in by - let's say - Friday, I'll publish the finished list one week from today. Then you can start stalking your local library (or, if you're me and you live in the sticks where your local library offers up a choice between the Bible and a dog-eared copy of National Geographic Magazine from 1987, you can hit up Amazon.)

Happy Memorial Day. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to be getting back to the encore presentation of the So You Think You Can Dance season opener. While I avoid most reality television, this is the gooey, indulgent, chocolatey center of my television addiction cake. Dance on, my people, and hop on that Hot Tamale Train.
