Lifestyle Gumbo: Obama's Summer Reads

Summer's for reading, but for President Barack Obama, who is spending part of the season vacationing with family in Martha's Vineyard, it's also about balancing an ambitious book list with family and play time.

The New York Times
recently published the Commander-in-Chief's reading list, which, we're happy to report, is full of urban crime novels.

The Way Home by George Pelecanos

Hot, Flat and Crowded by Thomas L. Friedman

Lush Life by Richard Price

Plainsong by Kent Haruf

John Adams by David McCullough
