Looking for your next book club pick? Do like the president by opening up something from his summer reading list.
According to a memo released by the White House Thursday, President Barack Obama will read the following books while on vacation in Martha's Vineyard:
All That Is (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=jesse-kornbluth/james-salter-master-of-co_b_3007273.html), James Salter
All The Light We Cannot See (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=scribner-magazine/how-anthony-doerr-came-to_b_6926412.html), Anthony Doerr
The Sixth Extinction (http://start.westnet.ca/newstempch.php?article=2014/05/01/elizabeth-kolbert-sixth-extinction_n_5245286.html), Elizabeth Kolbert
The Lowland (http://www.huffingtonpost.in/2015/01/22/jhumpa-lahiri-lowland_n_6524510.html), Jhumpa Lahiri
Between The World and Me (http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/07/james-forman-jr-between-the-world-and-me/399143/), Ta-Nehisi Coates

Most notable on the list may be Between The World and Me, whose author often (http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2014/11/barack-obama-ferguson-and-the-evidence-of-things-unsaid/383212/) writes (http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2013/05/how-the-obama-administration-talks-to-black-america/276015/) critically (http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2015/05/color-blind-policy-color-conscious-morality/393227/) of the way Obama addresses issues of race, especially those tied to recent cases of police brutality.
