Summer Light(book 2)

My second book was a Luanne Rice book as well. I love her writing. She really brings me into the story and I feel the emotions of all characters in the book. It wasn't my favorite Luanne Rice book but overall it was good. At times I got bored but then would force myself to get back into , and then I'd get hooked into it again. The story revolves around Martin who is a famous hockey player, May who is a wedding planner and her daughter Kylie who sees angels. May and Kylie meet Martian on a plane and they are brought together by Martin's dead daughter Natalie who also plays a big part in the book. What I did like about it is , in a lot of books when two fall in love, it's all magical but in this book they struggle with their love and they do fight like real couples, but in the end their love is so strong they are brought back together. The end brought tears to my eyes, so if a book can do that it can't be all that bad, right?

I just got two more books from the library today. Both are Judy Blume books. One is Summer Sisters that I think I have read before but it's been so long I don't remember anything about it so I want to read it again and I got a book by her called Wifey that sounds interesting.

I think I will pass my summer reading goal. I have my kids reading too. Mason and Mallory have to read (or be read to) every night. Mason loves getting books about bugs and animals and he will sit on his bed reading them (or looking at pics lol). I make Mason read at least once a day but lately I don't even have to ask him to do it, he just does! Of course having parents who read non stop helps lol They see us reading and they run and grab their books too.

So if your are looking for a good book, pick up Safe Harbor and Summer light, both by Luanne Rice.
