Looking for an impossible-to-put-down book to read this summer?
A few tips!
1.Stargazing: Memoirs of a Young Lighthouse Keeper
BY: Peter Hill
(In 1973, when the author was 19 years old, he took an unusual summer job: relief lighthouse keeper on three islands off the coast of Scotland. "I was attracted," he writes, "to the romantic notion of sitting on a rock, writing haikus and dashing off the occasional watercolour." (He was an art student with a fondness for the writings of Vonnegut and Kerouac and the music of Zappa and Hendrix.) But he didn't expect this little six-month stint to become a life-altering experience.....)
2.Self
BY: Yann Martel
(Let me tell you a secret: The name of the greatest living writer of the generation born in the sixties is Yann Martel! A wonderful book!)
3.The Five People You Meet in Heaven
BY: Mitch Albom
(Part melodrama and part parable.A small, pure, and simple book-full of insight and cleverly told.)
Read and ENJOY!
