I'm reading lighter stuff since I've been so miserably sick. Currently about halfway through A Husband's Secret, by the same author who wrote What Alice Forgot, which I read about a year and a half ago and loved.
-
@Penny Lane: I was surprised too! Harrison Ford wasn't quite what I pictured for Graff either, but it's just made me even more excited for the film.
In my head, Mazer = Rawiri Paratene or Manu Bennett (but aged up about 2 decades) and Graff = Dennis Quaid or Sean Bean. -
I'm on the third/last of the Call the Midwife memoirs. So good but they're a little repetitive! It's like she didn't expect a reader to actually read all of them
-
@Penny Lane: I would recommend it! Not as good as dark places though....
Ok, I caved and bought Divergent!
-
@hellobeeboston: I really enjoyed Divergent! I hope you like it!
I'm currently reading The Goddess Inheritance (book 3 in The Goddess Test series). I also just finished reading Sever (book 3 in the Chemical Garden trilogy) and Shades of Earth (book 3 in the Across the Universe trilogy). And after this, I might as well read Promised (book 3 in the Birthmarked trilogy) to round out all my trilogies.
-
@Adira: great! Excited to start a new trilogy! Sound like you are all over the trilogies, haha!
-
I've just started Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn.
-
@hellobeeboston: haha, yes! I LOVE Young Adult books because they are such easy/quick reads!
-
@illumina: That's next on my to read list! It's on its way from The Book Depository in the UK as it was cheaper to get the paperback there than to order it on my kindle - go figure! I hope it's as good as everyone says!
-
I'm reading the Storyteller by Jodi Picoult. I am about half way through and loving it so far!
-
@illumina: I read that a few months ago.
-
@adira: If you like YA books, you should try the His Fair Assassin series. Grave Mercy is the first one. I really liked the first two books and can't wait for the next to be available! I read a lot of YA since I'm a school librarian. Kristen Cashore also wrote a great trilogy (Graceling, Fire, Bitterblue) if you haven't read it yet...
-
I'm reading Lois Lowry's new book, "Son", which is the sequel to "The Giver". It's interesting reading it as a mother.
@mrsbookworm: I love Kristen Cashore's books! I've never heard of His Fair Assassin; I'll have to check it out.
-
@mrsbookworm: Thanks for the suggestion! I've read Graceling, but didn't read the others in the series. I'll have to put Grave Mercy on my to-read list!
... and I just went to add it and it's already there! I'll have to just bump it up in my list!
-
@adira: Fire and Bitterblue are so good (the other books in the Graceling world). They aren't sequels, but include several of the same characters from Graceling and take place in the same world. You're going to enjoy them - have fun reading!
-
@mrswin: I LOVE that book!
-
@Katrocap: Thanks for the suggestion! I'm currently reading Hallowed (book 2 in the Unearthly series) and then I have Ink Exchange (book 2 in the Wicked Lovely series), but after that, maybe I can read those!
-
@katrocap and @adira: I'm going to have to go back and look at the books you mentioned. Seems like we have similar tastes in YA lit!
-
Anyone read Night Circus? Good???
-
The panopticon by jenni Fagan. Really enjoying it!
-
@littlek: I have started it but having trouble getting into it. A friend lent it so I feel like I have to read it
-
@littlek: I really liked Night Circus. I found it really interesting and a quick read!
-
Just finished Cuckoo's Calling from JK Rowling. I really liked it. A good whodunit story.
-
@katrocap: I found Son really interesting as a mother too. I went back and reread Giver, Gathering Blue and Messenger before I read Son. I found Son really touching.
-
I am trying to read more classics so Gone with the Wind.
-
@Bao: I'm glad to hear that you liked it. Almost finished it on my subway ride home. I feel like it is one of the better books she has written.
-
@PermaStudent: Ooh, I love that series! Good for you for reading a book for fun! I wish I was, but I am reading other people's grant proposals so that I know how to format my own
-
@mrs.lord: I love Gone With the Wind. I read it before I watched the movie and it enjoyed it. The film was almost exactly how I'd pictured when I was reading.
I'm in the middle of Inferno by Dan Brown. It's not helping with my travel bug. I so want to go to Florence. But the book is kind of creepy so I don't read it before bedtime.
-
I just read Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
It was a very heavy book emotionally but really really good
