Elly in Bloom sounds like fun, KerriLeah!

I'm reading Tangle of Need by Nalini Singh. It's the latest in the Psy-Changeling series of alternate reality romances. I just love visiting that world and read each book as soon as I see it.

Agreed! I am a fan of Irving too, but I've started A Prayer for Owen Meany at least twice (at about page 50-75) and just couldn't get into it and dropped it. I've had the same experience with The Hobbit three times. Just can't do it! I long ago gave myself permission to quit a book after 50 pages if I'm not feeling it.

I just finished A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick.

I ordered a book called Centered Riding by Sally Swift and I'm not-so-patiently awaiting its delivery. It is a well respected book to help improve my horseback riding.

I'll probably also start reading another Philip K. Dick book.
