summer reading

I finished reading Marie Antoinette yesterday and really enjoyed it. So now I'm on a history kick and instead of the typical summer chick lit fare, I'm adding more historical non-fiction and biographies to my reading list. Nerdy? Perhaps. But I can't help but love history.

Two new books that are peaking my interest:

Eiffel's Tower by Jill Jonnes

The First Tycoon by T.J. Stiles
