Ohmygod, that story in Me Talk Pretty One Day about talking about Easter in French class? It had me in STITCHES. I have also listened to David Sedaris read it and it's even better in his voice!

One Fifth Avenue - this was kind of interesting. Started off slow, with a lot of characters, I almost stopped reading it. It got pretty intriguing by the middle and then it had a lukewarm finish.

Your Heart Belongs to Me - why why do I torture myself so? What happened to the Dean Koontz of yore? He who wrote Lightning and Watchers and Strangers? Heck, I'd even take a Bad Place or Hideaway at this point! This was just dreck. I just plugged away at it to see HOW it ended and it was LUDICROUS. Awful.

Without a Backwards Glance - a mom who walks out on her family on Christmas Eve and how that affected the kids' lives.

I have written something below in white text as a spoiler. If you don't want to be spoiled, don't highlight the section between the stars!

Really surprised they so quickly forgave the mother. It was a big build up to the "reunion" and then, well, nothing really. Thought the mother was a selfish, loathsome character and I really can't believe she was so easily integrated just because she wrote some letters after she left.

I'm currently reading Dead To the World by Charlaine Harris.

i also really liked the part in me talk pretty one day where their dad is beside himself that david's sister is "fat"...but it's just half a fat suit! his book "naked" was also fantastic, but i couldn't get through even half of barrel fever??

i just finished "snuff", and now i'm a little ways into "survivor" - my b/f says it's palahniuk's best book.

Bearing down to get The First Patient finished tonight and then tomorrow I start State of the Onion

It's midterm time for my high school students that I teach, so I am reading books that can help them with their exams. I read "Dawn" by Elie Wiesel earlier and am currently in the middle of "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants". haha

I am reading Any Given Doomsday by Lori Handeland. It's a different genre for me but it was free so thought I'd give it a try. Not too bad so far.

I just started reading Plum Spooky by Janet Evanovich!!!

I know this may be totally cliche cause i'm quite young,
but I am wanting to read the twilight series.
I have read Twilight and New Moon, now I need Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn.

I love those books!!!!!!!!!! When I'm done reading the pile of books I have now, I'm gonna reread Twilight for the zillionth time, lol.

Who cares how old you are, I loved the Twilight series and both of my in-laws read them as well and they're over 62!

Glory87, I'm still kinda new to bookreads...but would like to add you as a friend if I'm able to find out how. Lemme know if your interested and if yes, how to add you.

Today I'm going to read, The Reader by Bernhard Schlink. The movie looks pretty good, and Kate Winslet (LOVE HER!!) won a Globen Globe for it, so I thought I'd read the book before seeing the movie. I can probably finish it today too.

I just finished The Reader..so now I'm going to start, Untamed by PC & Kristin Cast.

I just started this tonight. I'm about 50 pages in and so far I love it love it love it!

Sorry, I posted before I saw this!

I would love to add you too!

My name on goodreads is just Glory! I looked for you as Borntofly but I didn't find you

To add a friend:

Click Friends along the menu bar on top (kind of in the middle)
Click Add Friends (it's a green link on the top right half of the page, first of three green links)
Scroll to the middle, there is a box for Search for Friends, type Glory and click Find Friend
When my name appears, click Add Friend

It is surprisingly not very intuitive!
