I like to apportion 100 days of each year for summer reading. These 100 days generally fall between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends. This year the 100 days start on Sunday May 29th, the day before Memorial Day and end on Labor Day on September 5, 2022. As I mentioned in Moby Dick: My White Whale my only real goal for these 100 days is to finish listening to Moby Dick. I always read at least 10 books during the Summer and expect I'll get at least that many again.

I finished book #20 on 4/18 and finished book #25 on May 20th. 5 books in 32 days is not great but it is a pace to finish 57 books in a year. Based on my rate since January 1st I am on pace to read 65 books this year. I imagine with a strong effort this summer those projections will increase.

I have a Hoopla recommendation for you. Love and Capes by Thomas Zahler. The first two volumes are in the app. I think you will really enjoy it.
