This summer I want to read all the books on my shelf that I’ve either never finished or never really even started. It’s rare for me to buy books (why, if there’s a library and you re-read everything you have anyway?) so I’m not sure how so many ended up in this stack,* but I plan to spend some quality time with them under the pergola or at the pool.
