I'm also reading a "Plum" novel. Finger Lickin' 15. I like them because they don't take much thought. I can read a page or a chapter and pick it right back up. And........they are funny.

I'm reading Shadow Puppets by Orson Scott Card. It is the 3rd book in his Shadow series. For those familiar with Ender's Game, the Shadow series follows the lives of other members in Ender's jeesh as they work to bring the world back to order in the time period following the destruction of the formic homeworld.

I love the Ender's Game and Shadow series! I've read all of the Shadow series but only the first two Ender.
I'm currently reading the 4th Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire book, "A Feast For Crows."
Reading the Bible bit by bit to have a sort of refresher course, and also finishing up Mockingjay. After that I want to read Girl Gone and a few others on my list!
TheSecondHalf: what titles have you read? I read the first third of Salt Sugar Fat by Michael Moss, but had to give it back to the library. I'm on the list to get it again. Fascinating. And motivating me to cook for myself.
Angelic_Fruitcake: Thanks for the reminder of Divergent. I've been meaning to read that and I'm in just the mood for it.
I'm reading Scarlet, the second in the series by Marissa Meyer that began with Cinder. They are re-tellings of fairy tales for young adult readers set a hundred years after the fourth world war, a time when there are cyborgs and people living on the moon. So good.

I am reading Love The One You're With by Emily Giffin!
I got through the 2nd Plum book and think they are fabulous! Can't wait to read more!
Love this thread! Might find me some good books to read!

I wasn't crazy about Cinder, though I liked the idea of re-telling fairy tales. I have Scarlet and will eventually read it anyways because I'm still curious to see what happens next.
I finished Insurgent and loved it as much as Divergent. I just started Matched by Ally Condie.

so far i have read i have your number by sophie kinsella...funny and exactly what i needed
at the same time shatter me, unravel me (haven't finished yet) by tahereh mafi, Reflected in you by sylvia day, can you keep a secret by kinsella and also started reading twilight in croatian language (i'm doing a comparison of translations in 4 different languages).
i should be reading bunch of uni boring stuff but i just can't start. i get annoyed with it fast.
Half of Yellow Sun I'm early on into the book. My early impression is: so far, so good. The book is by Chimamanda Adichie, who is an amazing writer and story-teller, so I'm looking forward to delving into it further. The content is about the Biafran war in Nigeria (Nigerian Civil War).
Missunshine I love, with a humourous passion, Sophie Kinsella's books! I can't believe I didn't know another one came out. I will definitely try to get my hands on a copy! I also have a bookshelf packed with texts to read for school... it's not as easy to read those books... lol.
