Killing two birds with one stone

Disturbing metaphor aside, I’ve decided that there are too many books and too much summer to catch up on in any real way, so I’ve combined them. Neither will be as expanded as it would have been had I actually been updating lj all summer, but this is the best I can offer. So now I bring you “What I did on my summer vacation” through literature. LJ-cut for your protection, of course.
