The Christopher Pike Book Club!

Lately I've been getting kind of sad about the fact that since I'm no longer in school, I no longer get a summer vacation. AND I don't get a summer reading list, to boot! No more endless, boring summer hours with which to fill with required reading. Just work. Endless, 9 to 5 work. Sigh.
But now -- no longer! Even though I barely have time to read as it is (I read over breakfast and right before bed and ... that's pretty much it), I've decided it might make me feel a little more like those wistful reading summers of old if I just make up my OWN Summer Reading List! And stick to it! This epiphany just so happened to perfectly coincide with my resurgence of love for one of my all-time favorite authors -- Christopher Pike! Sure his books might seem a little cheesy, a little out-dated, but what better way to celebrate the hot days of summer than with 80's teen horror??
Everyone's invited! Grab a copy of the current book I'm tearing through and join me in philosophical discussion on the way! (They can be found at probably any library. I got my copies at Amazon for a penny each!) I'll be hitting up the classics in chronological order -- first up: Slumber Party!
