Summer Reading Program check-in!

I'm just a week into the 2016 Summer Reading Program, but I am happy (actually, quite pleased with myself!) to say that I've got four activities in the works. Doing so many at once might not be the norm, but I'm confident I'll finish all of them soon. Here's what I'm reading:

1. Revival by Tim Seeley and Mike Norton. The story spans several days in Wausau, Wisconsin, where some of the town's deceased residents come back to life. It has a dark, somewhat gothic feel to it, and it's beautifully illustrated. This book meets activity 'V,' read a graphic novel or comic book
2. The Midnight Assassin: Panic, Scandal, and the Hunt for America's First Serial Killer by Skip Hollandsworth. Recounts a series of ghastly murders in Austin, Texas, during the 1880s. Lots of great detail, about the history of Austin, the people there, and of course, the murders. Similar to Devil in the White City. This book meets activity 'X,' read a book from the New Nonfiction shelves.
3. Bone Gap by Laura Ruby. Bone Gap is a dull, small, midwestern town with some very mysterious places, if you know where and how to look. Finn and Sean are two brothers living on their own there, Finn a 17-year-old somewhat awkward kid with a couple good friends, Sean is his older brother who tries to hold down the home. When their friend Roza disappears one day, all of their worlds are turned upside-down in a multitude of ways. There's an element of magical realism that gives a bit of a fantasy feel, but it's a pretty serious YA book, with some violence and mature themes. This meets activity 'T,' read a young adult book.
4. True Crime Addict: How I Lost Myself in the Mysterious Disappearance of Maura Murray by James Renner. I first heard of Maura Murray from the Missing Maura Murray podcast: a student at UMass who has a car accident on a dark road, tells someone she doesn't need help because AAA is on the way, and within minutes is gone, never to be seen again. James Renner comes upon the story while looking for something to focus on after losing his job at a newspaper, and gets sucked into the mysteries that surround the case. This book meets activity 'Z,' read a book only during your lunch hour.
