Summer book



It has been snowing and cold here in Wisconsin for what feels like forever. So here is a picture of my garden in high summer.

I was trying to think of books that were set in summer that made me feel warm. Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver comes to mind as one of my favorites. Can you think of any more?

Elizabeth Enright's Four-Story Mistake books. I am sure some of them take place in winter, but i mostly remember the summer scenes.

I am rereading Summer of my German Soldier....and what about The Heart is a Lonely Hunter? And more currently Donna tartt's The Secret Friend.

I read The Secret Friend. A modern gothic. It was kind of hot and sweaty:-) I am curious about Summer of my German Soldier. Still cold here, I still need something to warm me up.

Thanks, I needed that picture of the day lilies. I think I'd better go to Como. They should have the tulip display in by now.
