I started it but I felt like all the minute detail and calculations in the beginning made it slow. Hmmm... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672663 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 12:07:31 +0000 shellio 2672663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now I'm adding so many books to my goodreads list! I just finished The Nightingale and I thought it was good, thought provoking, but not amazing. I'm starting A Man Called Ove. </p> <p>@erinbaderin: I did not love Girl on the Train. It was suspenseful and kept my interest though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672605 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 08:19:52 +0000 fancyfunction 2672605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now I'm in the middle of Truly Madly Guilty and waiting to figure out what happens!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672603 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 08:04:18 +0000 SweetCaroline 2672603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: I did not like Girl on the Train. I may have liked it more if I didn't read Gone Girl first. It was pretty slow. I was quite disappointed after all the hype. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672602 Sun, 01 Jan 2017 07:40:45 +0000 Astro Bee 2672602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: ooh, thanks. I'll have to check it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672565 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 21:05:19 +0000 imadreamer 2672565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i'm currently reading Hillbilly Elegy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672541 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 20:21:18 +0000 erinbaderin 2672541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Astro Bee: I have the one from Audible, narrated by RC Bray. I actually downloaded it from a torrent site last year and liked it so much that I bought it so I can listen more easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672533 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 20:08:55 +0000 winter_wonder 2672533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh just started The Woman in Cabin 10. I'm also listening to Truly Madly Guilty on audio book. I think it might be my last Liane Moriarty book for awhile. It seems sooooo slow going at the beginning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672527 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 19:52:25 +0000 Astro Bee 2672527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: I've read it about 4x so far. I can't get enough, either! What audiobook version do you have? I'll be buying it for sure. I applied to the CSA astronaut program this summer, and I'm still in (1 of 100). I've been thinking about writing a post about how conflicted I feel. I'm not sure how they will handle my pregnancy in the later, more physical stages (and they definitely know I'm pregnant), but I am due in early May and would have to move to Houston, TX in August. It's still an extremely long shot, but I worry about work/family balance in a way I don't currently. It's always been my dream, though... :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672521 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 19:38:00 +0000 tinyperson 2672521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm reading The Lost Property Office and Wildwood - both books for 9-12 year olds 😁 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672516 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 19:21:27 +0000 megpie 2672516@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: I agree that it didn't live up to the hype, especially with people comparing it to Gone Girl. It was definitely slower than Gone Girl. I did like it though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672514 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 19:16:00 +0000 erinbaderin 2672514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Astro Bee: I reread that book all the time! Have you listened to the audiobook? It's also great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672513 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 19:15:29 +0000 erinbaderin 2672513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>People reading Girl on the Train, did you like it? I did not like it at all - combination of a dislikeable narrator and having it hyped as "the next Gone Girl", I think. </p> <p>I'm reading Fates and Furies (my concentration book when I have a spare half hour) and rereading the Hunger Games (my nursing book, when I only have five minutes). Next on my list is The Mothers and The Best Kind of People. I just finished The Hating Game and would totally recommend it for anybody in the mood for a fluffy chick-lit type book. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672512 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 19:07:21 +0000 youboots 2672512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: I just read that. Like Gone Girl but slower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672511 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 18:47:29 +0000 Mrs. Oreo 2672511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@megpie: I saw The Good Girl on Amazon earlier and put it in my wish list right away. Can't wait to read it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672508 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 17:53:25 +0000 Astro Bee 2672508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Re-reading The Martian by Andy Weir now. Like most books I find it's a lot better than the movie; this one is at least 10x better than the movie - and I loved the movie! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672504 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 17:36:37 +0000 youboots 2672504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: sharp objects is really good.</p> <p>Looking forward to reading a stack of books I'm collecting during our kid free trip to Mexico this winter. Find her by Lisa Gardner is the only title that comes to mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672501 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 17:17:38 +0000 Miss Ariel 2672501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jhd: I went through a phase in high school where I read a bunch of wizard of oz books. I think I got through 6 or so. I'd love to go back someday and read them all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672500 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 17:15:30 +0000 Miss Ariel 2672500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: I'm actually reading The Queen of the Tearling right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672499 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 17:04:34 +0000 megpie 2672499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: I loved Gone Girl! I've been really into mystery novels since reading it, and have since read Girl on the Train. Right now I'm into the first few chapters of Missing, Presumed by Susie Steiner which is really good so far! I'm also really excited to ready The Good Girl by Mary Kubica next! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672466 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 14:28:58 +0000 twodoghouse 2672466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm nearly finished with the third book in the Queen of the Tearling series by Erika Johansen. I've really enjoyed the series! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672461 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 14:14:07 +0000 Pancakes 2672461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonJack: DH bought me In the Garden of Beasts for Christmas and I just started it.

In my car I'm listening to teach like a champion. I have a hold on born a crime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672424 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 11:57:05 +0000 LemonJack 2672424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: I teach reading and just did a historical fiction unit, so just a lot of WWII books, so super depressing combined with teaching that time period to the kids. One of them, which is a quick (and very good) read, but depressing, was "Between Shades of Gray" by Ruta Sepetys. I also read In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larsen (non fiction read about the American ambassador living in Germany during Hitler's rise to power). There are a few others, but those two in particular were very good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672420 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 11:53:51 +0000 Mrs. Oreo 2672420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I lied! I just finished Born a Crime and realized I was also reading another book by my nightstand, Everything We Keep (woman's fiance dies before their wedding but he might not really be dead) and Wild (I've been trying to read it for a year....) :meh: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-currently-reading-3#post-2672416 Sat, 31 Dec 2016 11:51:05 +0000 Mrs. Oreo 2672416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonJack: Oooh what intense books?

Great book. </p>
