Summer Reading List

Okay... so I haven't had a summer reading list since 11th grade, but it really seems like a good idea.  I really get into a rut with my reading; usually books for my bookclubs aren't ones I would have picked so other than those I tend to read a lot of the same authors over and over.  I'd love to compile a list to get through these next few months, so if anyone has any suggestions, I really hope you'll share.  Right now, on the burner I have:

Nineteen Days by Jodi Piccoult 
Son of a Witch by Gregory Maguire

Once I've got a list I'll publish it, and anyone that wants to join me I'd love it!

The last series I read was His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman - of which The Golden Compass is the first book. If you haven't already checked it out, I highly recommend it if you're into the fantasy genre (also, I don't know your religious leanings but I have a Christian friend who loved it, if that means anything).

Actually, I've been wanting to read the 'Golden Compass' and the rest of the series, so that I will definitely add to the list. As far as finding it offensive or whatever, as a Christian I think reading or listening to dissenting viewpoints is important, plus I've heard it's a really great series. Thanks for the rec!
