Megan, you just finished the readingest semester of your life. What are you gonna do now?

Read, naturally. Today I finished up my crazy spring semester - note to everyone: do NOT take two hard core English classes and a grammar class during spring semester unless you want to spend your entire existence with a book in your hand. So now I'm making plans for my summer reading. Of course. The other day I was bored in my grammar class, so I started making a list, which I am now going to post. Feel free to make recommendations, but the list is already impossible. I'm excited.
