I saw the thread for March and thought it would be great to make one each month. So, what is everyone reading starting in April?

I just picked up My Sisters Keeper by Jodi Picoult. It's a pretty big book, but I'm looking forward to it.

I just read Hokus Pokus by Fern Michaels. I try to read 2 books a month.

I just started reading The Master Butcher's Singing Club by Louise Erdrich, and I also read a few pages every night of Super Foods Health Style by Steven Pratt and/or Finding Serenity in the Age of Anxiety by Robert Gerzon.

Everything Is Illuminated By Jonathan Safran Foer.... it is a great book! I am also finishing up Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood.... AMAZING book, I seriously could not put it down!!

[Heffalump]

@witm: oooh, I loved both of those!

Just finished reading "Better" by Atul Gawande and "How Doctors Think" by Jerome Groopman. Currently reading "Moral Disorder" by Margaret Atwood and "Grace (Eventually)" by Anne Lamott.

I just finished "Are You Ready!" by Bob Harper....not just another diet book! He actually deals with the mental part first!

My problem is that I often read more than one book at a time.

Current list:
New Rules of Lifting For Woman (read thru it once, now rereading parts and using it as a reference
The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova
Obsession by Jonathan Kellerman

Waiting to be read still:
S is for Silence by Sue Grafton
Now & Then by Robert Parker
Stranger in Paradise by Robert Parker

I also have a stack of photography related magazines to read, plus the latest issue of Cooking Light! But I'll catch up on those later.

witm, those are two really wonderful books! Margaret Atwood is my all-time favorite, and I thought Jonathan Safran Foer's Everything is Illuminated was astonishingly good.

I've got You On A Diet - interesting reading.

Well, aside from my textbooks from school, I am reading the Aeneid. But if I end up getting too bored, I'll just put it down and pick up another book (I ended up doing that with The Iliad).

Here's (a small portion) of my "To Read" Pile:

-The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin (random, I know)
-Something Happened by Joseph Heller
-Paradise Lost
-Paradise Revisted

And then the rest of the books on my list are books that I've already read but thoroughly enjoyed and wish to re-read.

As mentioned in the March thread, I'm still on Capital Crimes by Lawrence Sanders (it's the one where the Rasputin scenario plays out in more or less present-day Washington: it's more than 20 years old and probably out of print but if you can get it from the library or Half-Price Books GET IT, I love it)

After that, The Lucifer Gospel by Paul Christopher

I was wondering if you guys wanted to start a group at goodreads.com? We could call it Chick Lit

It's a pretty fun site, here's my profile (still a work in progress):

would we just talk about books that we ourselves are reading, or try and get one were the group would read together?

[Glory87]

Oh, both I guess
