  • I am reading Look Me in the Eyes by John Elder Robinson. It is about his life journey with Aspergers. My next book is called Little Bee and I am excited to start it.
  • Currently reading Bitter is the New Black by Jen Lancaster.
  • Quote: Currently reading Bitter is the New Black by Jen Lancaster.
    great book!!!
  • Hi! I'm reading the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris. So fun, in a morbid sort of way.
  • I'm a series junkie and my latest addiction is Ian Rankin's John Rebus series.

    Inspector Rebus is so dark, flawed, cynical ... I really like him.
  • I am reading "I heard that song before" by Mary Higgins Clark. I have never read anything by her before and it was given to me by a friend to read...so far it's ok. I guess I am more in to the gruesome suspense. It reads very much like a soap-opera.

    I know it's meant for children but has any one read any of the Artemis Fowl books?
  • with summer here i tend to reread books. i am currently rereading Valhalla Rising by Clive Cussler. then hopefully around oct. i want to tackle Wicked again. i got about half way through that one last time then got busy and did not finish it. so i took a break from it and will go at it again when summer is over.

    i do enjoy reading this thread for other authors and suggestions.
  • I just finished Patrick Rothfuss's The Name of the Wind and I can't recommend it highly enough. Best start to an epic fantasy I've ever read. I would go so far to say I may love his main character more then I love Orson Scott Cards Ender and Bean put together (and this is saying very much from me!).

    I am re-reading a favorite, book two in the Sevenwaters Trilogy by Juliette Marillier A Son of Shadows. It's a summertime tradition for me to read it. I love it more every time I read it.
  • I'm almost finished, "The Wedding" by Nicholas Sparks... love it!
  • Ooooo I loved The Wedding too!

    I am reading The BOok of Negroes. AWESOME!!
  • I finished April and Oliver and have moved on to LA Requiem by Robert Crais.
  • Finally read "The Secret Life of Bees"....loved it!!!
  • I just finished Jhumpa Lahiri's Unaccustomed Earth, and now I'm reading Teaching a Stone to Talk, a collection of essays by novelist Annie Dillard, and Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, by Dee Brown.
  • Currently listening to Roadside Crosses by Jeffrey Deaver, with Janet Evanovich's Finger Lickin' Fifteen lined up to listen to next. I just started reading THe Wildwater Walking Club by Claire Cook (she also wrote Must Like Dogs). Too many books, too little time.

    Allison, do you like your Kindle? I think it would be great for travel but the cost and the fact that it's very slow to connect here have kept me from getting one.
  • Miss Manners' Guide to Excrutiatingly Correct Behavior (hilarious and helpful)
