Are you planning to stay home from work or school tomorrow? Instead of being sucked into daytime TV you should warm up the e-reader, iPad or laptop and download a few books. Here are five books I recommend you read during tonight and tomorrow’s “Snowapocalypse”.
1. The Man With Two Arms by Billy Lombardo: Nothing better than a taste of summer in a snow storm. When do pitchers and catcher report?
2. The Slide by Kyle Beachy: Not only does his name “Beachy” sound summery, his debut novel takes place over a summer in St. Louis.
3. The Consequence of Skating by Steven Gillis: This one will bring you down and lift you back up.
4. The Universe in Miniature in Miniature by Patrick Sommerville: You’ll miss a lot of cool design elements, but if you’re snowed in why not download it.
5. Daring To Eat A Peach by Joseph Zeppetello: Winter can make you feel stuck and a Snowapocalypse can literary make you stuck. Joe’s debut novel is about being stuck and the conflicting forces that shape our daily lives.
