Finished the Princess Bride and started Catch Me by Lisa Gardner. I've only read the prologue and it's already kind of disturbing.

So, who here has read or plans to read Fifty Shades of Grey?

So this site has got me HOOKED on Ellen Hopkins! I love the way she writes! Not to mention that addiction/drug/recovery topics are something I get into (three years clean and sober here) So I've read Tricks, then Crank which turned out to be a series so now I'm on the second one, Glass. So surely I will read the third one next.

But I also can't wait to read Night Circus so I'm pretty sure that will be next.

Hit Reply by Rocki St. Claire was CUTE, fast read, all written in texts and emails, I enjoyed it.

I've got your number, new one by Sophie Kinsella was REALLY good, I never want her books to end.

Miss Invisible was cute (Laura Jensen Walker) I do enjoy books about plus sized girls.....

Oh then I read Perfect Match by Jodi Picoult who I just adore, but I can't read her too many in a row because her stuff is kind of repetitive but always interesting, so I like to read her BETWEEN other books.

Sleeping with Famous Men by Elizabeth Kaye was garbage, pure garbage. I quit it halfway through.

I have 50 shades of grey on my wishlist.

KEEP EM COMIN!

.....and feel free to add me on your Nook friends list.....

I finished reading The Hunger Games (just the first book not the entire trilogy), and now I'm reading Death's Daughter by Amber Benson (Tara from BtVS).

Me

I just finished reading The Language of Flowers and I hated it. I didn't understand the action/motivations of anybody in the book. And the ratings are so high on amazon!!!

Here's my Good Reads list. Friend me, if you haven't!

Finished The Night Strangers, it was alright, not excellent.

I'm now reading Rose Madder by Stephen King. I vaguely remember reading it as a teenager, but picked it up a few nights ago.

Ok, so I downloaded 50 shades of grey. I'll get to it eventually. I started Catch Me last night and it's really good! I also have a new Jonathan Kellerman, a new Harlan Coban and the Kristen Johnson autobiography, Guts, on my newly downloaded list. That should keep me busy for a long time!

It sure got good reviews on Amazon.

I'm so happy! I have a Verizon smartphone with hotspot capability. Until today, I was unable to connect my Kindle Fire to the hotspot (at home, it connects to my home wifi but at work I have no wifi as we're wired in). I want to be able to take my Fire with me on vacation and use it as a tablet--but unless I could connect it to the phone, it wouldn't work. I had researched at by all appearances the Fire wasn't supposed to recognize the hotspot, but I thought I'd give it one more try and VOILA! it worked! So happy to be able to go on vacation and not have to bring a laptop!

I just finished Mocking Jay #3 of The Hunger Games and I LOVED it!! I have no idea what I am going to read next. I need to pick something because that is the only way I make it through my elliptical time!

I just started "Pity the Billionaire" and it's great. I'm turning into quite the politics junkie these days. I'm sure I'll get back to fiction at some point but, for now, truth is much stranger!

As for the Stephanie Plum series, I started by reading One for the Money years ago. I adored the first book - probably read it ten times. There were some good books along the way but after To The Nines I couldn't go on. I think the author is just phoning it in. I kept getting deja vu because of all the redundant plot lines! That being said . . . I'm a Joe fan (cupcake!)
