DIANNAFor as long as I can remember, reading has been one of my favorite activities – especially on rainy afternoons or while kicking back relaxing on a boat or at the beach. Over the years, I’ve found a fascination for novels with ties of Michigan – of course! As you plan your summer reading list, here are some to consider.

The debut novel of author Audrey Niffenegger, published in 2003. This clever and inventive tale works on three levels: as an intriguing science fiction concept, a realistic character study and a touching love story.
