2016 What I'm Reading Wednesday #18

I stopped reading Frida's Bed.  It was not interesting to me.  I have read a lot about Frida Kahlo, and this book felt like I was reading another biography of the artist.  I was expecting the story to be more novel-like.  Oh well.  Now I am starting The Beach House by James Patterson and Peter De Jonge.  Hopefully it will be a quick read.  I am starting a new reading challenge on July 1st. and I am working really hard not to start any of my chosen books before then.  
Once again my monthly goal is to read 3 books.  I didn't do it last month, but I am now officially on summer break and should have lots of time to read :)
