I just downloaded the new one by Bret Easton Ellis--Imperial Bedroom. I also had to down load it's precursor--Less Than Zero to re-read first. Of course, I'm only 30% done with The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest so it'll be a while before I get to these. And I also have Jen Lancaster's My Fair Lazy...If only I had more time! I'm hoping DH puts together my bike so I can read and ride at the same time (can't manage that with the elliptical or treadmill).

Just finished up 'The Lovely Bones'. Loved it, was much better than the movie to me (as books tend to be ) and I like the movie. I am still reading on 'Turning Angel' by Greg Iles and just started the first book in Anne Rice's The Vampire Chronicles as well

One of my all time favorite easy reads! I hope you enjoy it!

Also, I just finished The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer. And I have just started Hope In A Jar by Beth Harbison.

Hope in a Jar was okay

Thanks ANOther - I added The Oath to my Good Reads queue.

I am reading House Rules by Picoult. I'm about 40 pages in and she's NOT in the courtroom yet! It's a miracle. I either like her books or get hugely annoyed, we'll see how this one goes.

I just finished Open by Andre Agassi and really liked it-

Scraver, I couldn't really get into the 4 day win. I don't know why. Maybe I will try reading it again at another time.

I'm finally onto Underground by Kat Richardson. Still trudging through Last Night in Twisted River. It's good, but I can only read so much at a time. At some point I may have to go back and read The World According to Garp, I read it in high school and loved it. Not sure if I would now.

Next I'm re-reading Eat Pray Love for my book club.

I am reading "All Over Creation" By Ruth Ozeki. It is a fictional account of the dangers of the farming industry. I would recommend her book "My Year of Meats" which is about the livestock industry mixed with interesting plot and storyline, but it actually has a bibliography of real sources, any day.
