Thanks kittycat40!

I just finished Secrets of a Shoe Addict. It was okay, pretty light and fluffy and apparently a sequel. The author can write some funny dialogue so I might check out her other stuff.

Well, I say it's light and fluffy until I realized the book had: male prostitution, blackmail, felons, phone sex operators and cheating husbands. So, it was light and fluffy with that stuff.

i will check it out after i finish the book i just started. that would def be good for the subway.

have you read any susan choi?

Just read City of Thieves. Has anyone else read it?

Glory, I read Secrets of a Shoe Addict a few weeks back. It wasn't all that bad. But yes, I must agree with you on your Spoiler.


I just finished Mommy Tracked by Whitney Gaskell. She has a few others, but am not sure what one's I may pick up next. It was a pretty good read. Lots of characters to keep under wraps. A chapter dedicated to each character. All in all I liked it.

Off to add some chick lit books to my library cache.

Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life by Henry Cloud and John Townsend

NOTE: *Lord knows I have boundary issues!*

Next, I am reading The Five People You Meet In Heaven

I finished Snow Falling on Cedars and will start the new Harlan Coben today.

Just finished Gucci Gucci Coo. It was a good read, I'll admit. The author (Sue Margolis) has a few other books, I may add to my library cache.
We are heading out to B&N in a bit, off to look for a few other MUST ADD TO MY COLLECTION reads. Hoping to find some Emily Giffin books on clearance there. Doubtful though. If not I'll ask my parents to get me them for my birthday.

I have been reading Sue Grafton books for a while, and just finished J is for Judgment, but decided to have a change. I am trying to read A Body to Die For by Kate White, but I have a feeling that I may just need a break from this genre for a while.

I bought Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett while we were in the US, and now that I have two weeks' vacation I may try to get that read. I am so tired after a day at school, with keeping kids focussed all day, that I just don't have the mental energy to face anything too deep and thought-provoking in the evenings.

I am SO envious of the price you pay for books in the US. We pay close to double over here, if not more. We bought quite a few books while we were over there. Some because we couldn't get them over here, and others because it was simply cheaper, even with the postage to get them home.

Hey Zelma - I hope you like Pillars! It's one of my top 10 books of all time. Years later, he actually wrote a "sequel" (with different characters, in a different time period). If you like Pillars, you can check out World Without End - it's nearly EXACTLY like it (in a good way and a bad way - good, well, it's more of the same; bad, hello lazy writing)

I'm reading Brian Keene... He's a very graphic horror novelist. Not for the faint of heart. Hehe.

I don't think so...but the name seems familiar. What has she written? Did she work/write for The New Yorker?

:angel:I LOVED "The Five People You Meet In Heaven"! I am currently reading everything by Nevad Barr. She is a mysterie writer who centers her stories around a female National Park Service ranger. They are really good! I have a long list from all the ideas everyone is giving me! I love to read while walking on the treadmill!

i've been struggling through the Roger Zelazney Amber series for a while- I have two books to go but I'm going to take a break. Just borrowed World War Z: an oral history of the zombie war by Max Brooks. We'll see how far I get into it- not my usual type of book but it is a bestseller and a lot of people i know keep raving about it.

I loved World War Z - but I love zombies, so I am biased. Supposedly, they are making it into a movie.
