good morning everyone. New month, please share with us what you're reading.

I'm about half way through 'before I fall ' it's decent so far. I wish a little more exciting.

I just finished my book yesterday and am currently looking for one to read. I have a prime membership with Amazon, so if anyone has any good suggestions for freebies from the lending library I would appreciate it.

I've read and loved:
Harry Potter - complete series
Hunger Games - complete series
Kite Runner
Water for Elephants

Thanks for your help!

In May I read: A Life Without Limits, Finding Ultra, World War Z, and In a Single Bound.


In June I plan on reading:
1. The Long Run By: Matt Long
2. The Courage To Start By: John Bingham
3. Living Life to the Full By: Ellen Charnley
4. Ironstruck By: Ray Fauteux
5. And the Mountains Echoed By: Khaled Hosseini

Slowly but surely I'm reading "Nourishing Traditions" - The cookbook that challenges politically correct nurtition and the diet dicotcrats, by Sally Fallon.


This is really a book on nuition(as well as a cookbook) that challenges all the misinformation on what's good for us to eat. I now know why to eat the whole egg and not just the egg white. No more low fat dieting, yeah!

I'm about halfway through NOS4A2 by Joe Hill. I'm really enjoying it, but have gotten back into a computer game so haven't had much time to read.

I started Dan Brown's new book Inferno over the weekend. It's a page-turner. I could easily sit down and finish it, but I don't have the time! I am telling myself that I can read it IF I'm on the treadmill (something I got from someone here that only allows herself to read while on the treadmill). So far, it is working. I've been doing half-hour sessions for the past week or so and feel ready to up it to 45 minutes. Guess dinner will have to wait, lol.

I love Neil Gaiman and I'm so excited about his new book!

I read The Host by Stepheny Meyers and The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky in May.

I'm currently halfway through Salt Sugar Fat by Michael Moss and just started A Game of Thrones.

Good to know, I was thinking about ordering that one.

And Neil Gaimon. But the reviews are so mixed on his stuff. Please, anyone, give me your opinions of his novels (not the kids' stuff).

American Gods and Neverwhere are two of my favourite novels ever! I wasn't as crazy about the other ones but they're still pretty good.
