Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay~ Ahh, it's so good. I can't wait to finish it and read the others in the series.

First 2 Dexter books are great, the third is big WTF.

I finished The Red Queen by Phillipa Gregory. Chick is in big-time need of an editor.

I timed it just right and finished Play Dead last night (Halloween). Tonight I start Crippen by John Boyne (about a celebrated murder case in Edwardian England), and then I start trying to find some Xmassy stuff

Just started Little Bee by Chris Cleave for my book club. I do a lot of my reading on the recumbant bike and eliptical and those books have to be page turners so tend to be easy reads. Don't know if this will qualify or not. I'll let you know.

Right now I have a bunch of books going. I'm still working on Paradise Lost and the Stephanie Plum series (up to book six). Also reading Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians and just started A Grimm Legacy this morning. Last two are middle school books though.

Currently reading Les Misérables. I read it once years ago, and have seen the musical seven times, so I thought I'd plough through the book again. It's hard going at times, but once you get through all the tedious social commentary, the actual story is good.

I just finished up 'Overton Window' by Glenn Beck and I am about to start on 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Brontë.

Eh, it was okay. The lead character had an annoying tic (kept repeating a certain phrase over and over) made her sound developmentally disabled. I finished it, but man, it was no Other Boleyn Girl!

Glory, after reading The Other Boleyn Girl, I picked up a couple more and couldn't stand them! I've given up on her.

I'm reading Ken Follett's new book The Fall of Giants and really like it so far. It's easy to get wrapped up with in these tombs of his.
