Another month of sharing what we are reading. I don't know about you all, but I'm so happy it's finally March!


I am about 3/4 of the way through My Horizontal Life by Chelsea Handler. She is hilarious!

The Winter Olympics, and the Olympic read-a-thon, end, and I started in with Capture by Robert Tannenbaum

Well the title still says February

I'm in transition of books currently, but I plan on starting the Beach House by Jane Green here soon.

ahh! bummer! thank you for pointing that out LuckyJules! Perhaps a mod can fix that? I tried but it wouldn't let me.

1984 by George Orwell

I have a whole list of books to read.

I just finished The Shining before bed last night, and am planning on starting Sarah's Key by Tatiana De Rosnay. I went a little book happy at Chapters (Canada's version of Borders), I bought 3 novels and about 6 crossword puzzle books. What can I say I'm a nerd.

I finished the Twilight saga last night. It started going downhill for me in the third book. The ending of the fourth book, and thus the whole saga, was a let down. Quite the fizzle.

Overall the books were ok but I'm glad I'm done.

I'm giving my eyes a rest for a couple days and plan to start Palimpsest by Catherynne Valente next.

I finished 2 books recently:

A Friend of the Family - loved this one! My only complaint was there was such a powerful build-up, the actual "mystery" might have been a let down (2 mysteries actually). But, just great characters, great pacing, great suspense, great writing.

Little Face - I've read two books recently by this author and really liked them. This book was INFURIATING. The ending pissed me off so much, it was a huge cheat. I would give this book 2 stars, great writing, crap story.

I've just finished "The Gargoyle" by Andrew Davidson which I really enjoyed ... maybea wee bit gruesome at the beginning and the end .....but well worth it for the rest!

And I've started "Lacuna" by Barbara Kingsolver ...

The Gargoyle is next on my list, and I have a feeling I will be starting it very soon, as I am flying through Sarah's Key.

I just finished Wesley the Owl, by Stacey O'Brien.

I found it at the grocery store one night and I told myself it would last me at least a week. It lasted one night.

It is a quick read about a young biologist who adopts an orphaned and physically challenged owl at 3 days old. He, Wesley the owl, lived for 19 years. It was amazing to read how devoted the biologist and the owl were to one another.

Just finished Sarah's Key this morning. I recommend it, it is an emotional read, but I couldn't put it down, only stopped reading when I was on the verge of sleep. As stated above I'm about to start The Gargoyle.
