With summer upon us, it is a great time to re-energize in preparation for the fall term. Reading is a wonderful way to rejuvenate as you learn new skills and concepts as well as pick up strategies for getting more time in your life.

Throughout the year I do a lot of reading, however, this past year has been rather tough on my reading goals. But things are settling down and I have managed to carve out time for more books.
Today, I would like to share what I am reading as well as provide you with ideas for your summer reading list. My personal reading tends to revolve around instructional technology and productivity. What I have learned over the years has helped me become more efficient and effective. This has in turn allowed me to pursue other activities.
My summer reading list is primarily focused on productivity with a hint of instructional technology. While I have lots of recommendations, I have narrowed my list for you to eight books. I have read each of these books and I think you will find them inspirational and useful.
I hope you enjoy them
