I didn't think I was going to but it turned out to be a great read.</p> <p>@sera_87: I stopped reading Life After Life. I just got tired of her dying and starting over again. Maybe the book gets better but I stopped.</p> <p>@irunforfun: I read Unbroken and it's the only book that made me physically gasp out loud. I also cried onto my Nook while I was on the train and people were staring at me.</p> <p>I'm finishing up Americanah and about to start a book called Etched on Me. I have had a lot of friends come out with books lately, it's crazy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7/page/2#post-1408439 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 21:04:35 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 1408439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Paddle Your Own Canoe by Nick Offerman</p> <p>I'm itching to start All Joy and No Fun, the paradox of modern parenting by Jennifer Senior. </p> <p>These are some good recommendations! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7/page/2#post-1408401 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 20:51:09 +0000 pl0508 1408401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is Where I leave You</p> <p>Read Gone Girl last week.

Really enjoying it but I'm having a hard time continuing it. Normally I could have it knocked out in a day or so but I've been in a reading funk for a few months where I'm just not enjoying reading like I used to. It's definitely not the book...just reading in general.</p> <p>Trying to make myself finish it though! I know I will love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7/page/2#post-1408381 Fri, 07 Feb 2014 20:37:24 +0000 Beehive 1408381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just finished book 2 of Karl Ove Knausgaard's My Struggle, and I'm starting The Goldfinch.

At this point I would consider it fairly "light" reading - not quite chick-lit, but not quite heavyweight literary, you know? Somewhere in between. However, all of the reviews mention how sad it is, so I'm bracing myself :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405992 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 23:28:00 +0000 Running Elley 1405992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last week I read A Light Between Oceans.

I haven't gotten too far yet, so I haven't decided if I like it. My husband just finished it and enjoyed it. I do like the author, I read Beautiful Ruins by him last year and liked it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405372 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:25:39 +0000 sera_87 1405372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: surprisingly, no.

Ok, often. Thanks!<br /> @sera_87: is it a sequel to anything? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405326 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:13:28 +0000 sera_87 1405326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: the supernatural element is kelpies. It's about family and belonging and traditions and love and oh. It's just SO good. Beautifully, beautifully written. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405324 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:13:17 +0000 BananaPancakes 1405324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just finished The Fault in Our Stars and The Outliers this week. Haven't started anything new, but my SIL bought me A Casual Vacancy recently and I need to read it. I just get really lazy about picking them up if they aren't on my Kindle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405319 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:12:24 +0000 Mae 1405319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: If you ever like depressing books, then probably depressing good. I mean it was a compelling read and very well written and a very moving story. But still, I ended up sobbing on my couch trying to finish it without ruining the library book. And I just don't generally like to let fictional characters take that sort of emotional toll on me lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405306 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:10:09 +0000 NurseMommy 1405306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: re: MSLOTM - depressing good, or just depressing? LAL is on my to-read list, you'll have to let me know how it turns out!<br /> @meredithNYC: how is it? I've got it on my bookshelf ready for me<br /> @sera_87: what's Scorpio races about?</p> <p>I just finished The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and really liked it, although I seem to be the only one who did. Last night I started Dark Places by Gillian Flynn (Gone Girl) on the recommendation of another bee the last time one of these threads came up. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405266 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 20:00:32 +0000 Bao 1405266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@IRunForFun: Umm...let me go look lol, will wall you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405262 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 19:58:45 +0000 sera_87 1405262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: its quite different from My Sister Lives. I liked it a lot more (4 stars v. 3 stars) - its more suspenseful since she's writing to a man on death row and reveals just a bit at a time. Its also a bit less depressing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-you-reading-7#post-1405260 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 19:58:38 +0000 IRunForFun 1405260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: How do I add you?
