It is fascinating to read about her process of writing - her sheer productivity is daunting.<br /><br />I've seen the great film "Rebecca" many times but have never read the novel.

I still haven't read A Clash of Kings though I have watched the TV series and know a lot of what happens going forward. I didn't know there was a readalong on Goodreads. I don't think I am far enough into the book to join in.<br /><br />My summer TBR pile includes A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson (a book discussion selection for August), rereading Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series and Heroes of Olympus series in time for the release of The Blood of Olympus in October, and reading Silver Shadows by Richelle Mead when it comes out next month. I had hoped to reread A Game of Thrones too so I could start A Clash of Kings in the fall but we'll see. I bought book two a few years ago so it is about time that I read it! Maybe if I read one book a year for the next few years, I will be caught up in time for Winds of Winter if it ever gets published...<br /><br />Good luck with your reading plans! I hope you enjoy the books :)Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-84915506869768183362014-06-30T04:31:53.949-07:002014-06-30T04:31:53.949-07:00You have some great books waiting for you this sum...You have some great books waiting for you this summer! I am curious to see what you think of the Dan Simmons book. I saw his Abominable at the library last week but wasn't so sure yet.
