  • I noticed that there hasn't been a book thread in several months, so I figured I'd start one.


    I am reading Dark Places by Gillian Flynn on my tablet, and Julie Garwood's The Bride in traditional book form.
  • For the time being I'm reading a Game of Thrones graphic novel. They were a Christmas gift and although I haven't read graphic novels or comics for years, I absolutely love them.
  • Actually just started reading on my phone "Ten days in a madhouse" by Nellie Bly.

    Got onto it by a funny on FB called "12 historical women who gave no f***s" and someone on the comment thread recommended it. Out of curiosity I had a look and it is fascinating.
  • That sounds really interesting.
  • I am slowly making my way through Les Miserables (on my phone, too, so there's like ~6000 pages lol) Its awesome so far, but I'm already in love with the musical so I'm biased
  • I just found out that Ten days in a Madhouse is being made into a movie - funny as I was thinking about it I thought it would make an awesome movie.

    I have read Les Mis twice - once when I was 16 and once more recently - on my phone, which I actually found easier as you could make the text bigger and more spread apart so it was easier to read. In the book it was tiny so I struggled a bit with it.

    It's worth it though.
  • The Difference You Make by Pat Williams

    --book about leadership and influencing others- recommended by some friends of mine whom I respect.

  • I'm reading Wolff Hall in anticipation for the BBC series in April
  • One Step Behind - Swedish crime fiction by Henning Mankell

    On Being Presbyterian - I forget the author's name

    I'm reading both on my Kindle Paperwhite
  • Quote: I'm reading Wolff Hall in anticipation for the BBC series in April
    I really liked the first two books in this trilogy and am looking forward to both the show and the last book.

    Oh boy I didn't even know it was a trilogy. So much to look forward to!
  • Bring Up the Bodies is the second book. The third one will apparently be called The Mirror and the Light but I don't think it has a release date yet.
  • Good Calories, Bad Calories.

    It's pretty good.
  • 1st To Die by James Patterson


    Great Read!!
  • Starship Troopers - Robert Heinlein. An old favorite
