As Memorial Day Weekend is the unofficial kick-off to summer (and that was a whole week ago!), I thought I would post some summer reading suggestions–brought to you by none other than the most fabulous readers ever: my Literary Masters book group members!  Here’s wishing you all a wonderful summer–may you turn all the pages you wish to, both literally and figuratively!

In no particular order, enjoy these books this summer:

A Hundred Flowers by Gail Tsukiyama
