Am reading The Hunger Games series. Finished THG and started the second book, only to be informed by my youngest that "MOM! Mocking Jay is the third book you have to read Catching Fire next!". Welp, guess I know how the second book ends.

I. Am. So. Duh.

No, I've always heard it pronounced as "air". ETA: Where are you from, roxmysox, that you think "air" and "heir" sound different?

I've slowed my reading down too....I am reading Burned by Ellen Hopkins (my new favorite author!) but I am finding it slower than the rest of her stuff so I find myself not as motivated to pick it back up, not like the rest of her stuff, that I couldn't put down, and would read every free moment I had.

50 Shades of Grey
Night Circus
Water for Elephants


....are coming up next! I LOVE MY NOOK!

forgot to take one of my books with me over the weekend, so stopped by barnes and noble and picked up a awkwardly binded copy of 'the lovely bones' for $5 and read it in 2 days! i thought it was great, once i got used to the awkward POV it was written in.

I've slowed way down my reading as well.

I blame the interwebz and Pinterest. Pinterest! Who invented that? Like I need even more things distracting me?

I've started a new book: Gravity And The Lack of It. Not sure about it yet, but I bought it because I know the author! So far, he's made references to his dog, Molly and the ice cream place he has a franchise of (Cold Stone Creamery).

Finished Jane Eyre last night. Seems like it stuck to the movie I saw, at least 3/4ths of it. Ending was different, but I am sure they were crunched for time & cost. But I also wonder if they changed it cuz St. John was her cousin. Makes me want to see other versions of the movie now!

Still have Wuthering Heights to finish.

I'm reading Damage by John Lescroart. It's not normally the kind of book I pick up, but it looked interesting and so far it is.
