I'm planning to participate in a summer reading challenge on Goodreads (just for myself, not as part of a group). The problem is that it didn't come with dates. I had planned to do it during meteorological summer (June 1 through August 31), but I want to start now. Would it be cheating if I considered summer to be Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend?

I think Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend is a reasonable definition of summer. I still think those ought to be the boundaries for "summer break," even though they haven't been since well before we graduated from high school.

There are very few things I miss about being a child, but summer break is definitely one of them. Also recess. The work day should come with recess.

Oooh, yes! We definitely need more recesses in the work day. Although not the kind where you're required to go outside regardless of the weather and play with people that you don't actually like.
