In July I want to complete those books that I chose to read this month. I have put off White River Crossing for several months and I must prioritize it. It takes place in sub-Arctic Canada. Also, Eve Chung's The Young Will Remember is a must read. The story takes place in China at the end of the Cultural Revolution. Another Asian fiction novel that I want to read is Lisa See's Daughters of the Sun and Moon. This story takes place in post Civil War Los Angeles. I think this is a new, to me, setting for a Chinese immigrant story. I am looking forward to getting my hands on the book. It's pretty cool that it qualifies as a selection for the July Key Word Reading Challenge. Wanda Brunstetter has a newly published novel called Melody of Love. It takes place in Amish country in Indiana and Ohio.
My July reading plan also includes July, July by Tim O'Brien. This is historical fiction because it takes place in 1969. It's hard to believe 1969 was that long ago to be considered historical fiction. I remember it clearly. I also found a few new cozy mysteries that will be published in July but they aren't published until the end of the month. I will be reading them in August.
I know that I will be at the beach almost every day so I cannot promise that I will read more books. I feel that I need to catch up on my TBR list though. Michael Robothan is the author of Tell Me Something True and it is another priority for me. This novel occurs in rural Australia. Tempered for Murder is a chocolate cozy murder mystery by Puja Satiani and it should be a fun read. The Doctor in the Corner Clinic is a murder mystery written by Paderthi Vijay that I would also like to read.
Where are you traveling to next month?
