Squeeze Me by Carl Hiaasen

 

Whether or not you are a Hiaasen fan, if you were fed up with the last administration and the crazy people that supported it you will love this book. I laughed out loud and shook my head. Hiaasen has such a way with words and this story just pulls you in and makes you wish you had the nerve to do some of the things he came up with. Super fun and well worth reading. I might make you a Hiaasen fan yet!

Things you save in a fire by Katherine Center

A nice fun read to escape into. Cassie was excelling in her career as a firefighter in Texas. She was even getting an award, and that is when things fell apart. After those events she had to leave the department or transfer far away. Her mother had been begging her to come to Massachusetts and now it seemed like the time. 

There were a lot of hurts that needed mending, lessons to be learned, and trust to be gained. Very well put together and you felt lime a part of the story. If you want a fun read to finish up the summer, this is a good one.
