I just posted the following list of my pleasure (and other) reading at the cottage this year on my Cottagebythesea blog. An * indicates audio books that entertained me on my roundtrip drives from home to cottage.
This list doesn’t include my spiritual readings, which consist of daily devotionals (I’ll post a list of those in the next few days). And then, there is The Bible, which of course heads the list.

Anderson, Joan. The Second Journey: The Road Back to Yourself.
Carrisi, Donato. The Lost Girls of Rome.
