The only thing I'm reading right now is a Psychology book but I did just finish reading "I'll Walk Alone" by Mary Higgins Clark.

I just finished rereading Going Postal by Terry Pratchett, am almost done with Misquoting Jesus by Bart Ehrman, and then I am also reading multiple history books for my dissertation. I think my next book may be The Fairy-Tale Detectives by Michael Buckley.

In my latest More magazine there is an article about the author of The Help. She submitted the manuscript to FORTY publishers before it was accepted for print! Can you imagine? I guess I'll have to read it!

It's fun to read. For certain characters the author writes the words so that it reads as the dialect (Mississippi) that they would be speaking. It's almost like you can hear them when you read it. Still only about 1/3 of the way through, but liking it!

Just finished Atonement by Ian McEwan, and am just now starting Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin (hoping to finish it in time to still catch it in theaters!)

I am on a Regency romance kick right now - haven't read any beyond Georgette Heyer or Patricia Veryan for years. So I tried Julie Quinn and Suzanne Enoch and am liking them quite a lot, although not with the devotion I have for GH and PV!
