I have been asked a lot lately what I am planning to read for the summer and of course being the avid reader I am happy to obliged the request! Here is some books and (links to buy) I am planning to read:

I am a huge fan of themes so these quick Fear Street Books by RL Stine are up my alley. As the founder of the Fear Street Book club and a RL Stine fan these books are a short treat for something light to read and scary.
