    Hi everyone,

    I'm reading Sizzling Sixteen by Janet Evanovich...I love this series! I also just finished a memoir called "I was told there'd be cake" by Sloane Crosley. It was a quick funny read that was complete brain candy.
  • I'm on the 5th book of the Sookie Stackhouse series. LOVE these!
  • Hickory,

    I LOVE those books. I haven't read the latest one yet (I am in queue to get it from the library). Do you watch True Blood on HBO--the series is based on the books. They have taken a lot of liberties but it is also highly entertaining...plus Alexander Skarsgard is HOTTT
  • The Orchard Keeper by Cormac McCarthy. He's amazing but it takes me a bit to get through his books due to his detailed writing and how many times I can read a sentence over and get something new out of it (not unlike this run on sentence lol). I can't wait to read everything of his.

    The Professor and the Madman by Simon Winchester. Really interesting so far.

    The Atheist's Way-Living Well Without Gods by Eric Maisel. Religious debate intrigues me to probably an unhealthy extent so I read a lot about it. But this book provides so much insight into my head, really.
  • I finished re-reading Less Than Zero and have begun Imperial Bedrooms, both by Bret Easton Ellis.
  • Quote: Hickory,

    I have watched the first 2 seasons. It was definitely different from the books, but I still love both the show and the books! But, the show put me firmly on Eric's side before the books did....
  • Ohh! I love the Sookie books too!! I agree with you, Hickory. I've read all the books too, and I liked Eric waaay sooner in the TV show than I did in the books...

    Right now I'm reading 'The Things We Do For Love" by Kristin Hannah, and "Three Cups of Tea" by Greg Mortenson & David Oliver Belin...that ones taking me a while, it's nonfiction, so it's not a quick cute read. I've been reading it while reading novels.
  • I'm reading Thin is the New Happy

  • Hey Luddy - I just read "The Professor and the Madman" too. It was fascinating!
  • the twilight series, im half way through the second book, and i have plans to read The guernsey literary and potato peel pie society and firefly lane.
  • The Biggest Loser - Simple Swaps. 100 easy ways to start living a healthier lifestyle.
  • Here's my current Good Reads list, I try to keep it up to date:

    I just finished reading Laura Lippman's "I'd Know You Anywhere" - I loved it!
  • I'm currently reading Lust by Elfride Jelinek. Very graphic, very hard to read book. I'm not sure if it is the translator or the author. Not one of my favorite reads.


    Soon I will be reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I kept hearing about it so I picked it up and I will also read The Land of Green Plums by Herta Muller. I can't wait to be done with what I'm currently reading.
  • Now: Bliss, Remembered, by Frank Deford

    On deck: The Paris Vendetta by Steve Berry
  • Heart of the matter by Emily Griffin
