Currently reading The Orphan Master's Son by Adam Johnson. Heavy stuff, but really good so far!

I'm reading two books at the moment. Game of Thrones, and The Angels Trilogy (YA fiction for the Angel one). I'm enjoying both of these books, but can only read Game of Thrones in bright light as the print is so small.

I have three that I am going to start next. The greatest gift by Phillip van Doren Stern, Spellbound by Kelley Armstrong, and Savor, by Thich Nhat Hanh.
@ CandianCutie I love the Song of Fire and Ice series. I hope that George RR Martin releases the next one soon though maybe that is why they are so good because he does take his time with each book.

Actually a food related book: Sugar, Salt, Fat. It will get you angry, it should get you angry.

It is already providing me extra motivation to be healthy. The big food companies are little better than drug pushers. I will not be their guinea pig/ addict.

I've read 58 books so far this year alone. I'm starting Pawn today, then I'll be reading Antigoddess before the end of the year. I think 60 books in one year is a good number.

YIKES! Psychic! I have made goals the last few years and this year I lowered it to 30 but not going to make it Been a busy year. But I did get a little more than half. WTG on 58 books read!

I am halfway through with And The Mountains Echoed, very good so far and for some reason after I finished Takedown Twenty I started another, lol...Full Frontal Feminism by Jessica Valenti.
