What do you like to read on a beautiful, sunny day?

I usually return to the classics: Pride and Prejudice, maybe an old school-required reading like To Kill a Mockingbird. Other sunny-day reading favorites of mine are light, fluffy romances, like much of Meg Cabot’s work, or even Janet Evanovich. I’m currently still working my way through Jellicoe Road, so I think that will be today’s outdoor read, but once I finish that, I think I’ll pick up Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (close enough, right?).

I keep reading on the Internet about the new Anne of Green Gables miniseries, and think to myself, Oh, won’t that be nice! Then I think, Wait. Green Gables. WAIT! I never read that book!

Yes, dear readers, I have never read ANNE OF GREEN GABLES, or any of Ms. Montgomery’s novels. How is this possible? How did I miss this crucial piece of fiction? I do not know! But, oddly enough, we have a copy in the house, and I plan on rectifying that immediately, and then most likely requesting all the sequels from BookMooch!
