    Right now, a book called Jab Jab Jab Right Hook - about harnessing social media in business. I'm working on our church's social media project, so its 'required' reading.

    @Mamaof2: Still Alice was a good book.

    @delight: I just finished The Rosie Project. It took me a minute to get used to the narrator, but I really liked the book.

    I'm reading Life After Life. I was reading Americanah, too, but it didn't hold my interest as much as Life After Life so I stopped.

    @lavender: hi! I just started reading it last night, so it's too early for me to say if I really like it or not! I read so many books that I pick some real stinkers sometimes. Embarrassing fact: I recently read three of the Flowers in the Attic books. I feel better now that I've said it out loud

    I'm reading The Dinner. It's marketed as a European Gone Girl, whatever that means. I'm not too far in but so far it has potential.

    I'm in the middle of Let the People In, an biography of TX governor Ann Richards. It's fascinating. She was a complicated, amazing woman.

    I am on the second book the 50 shades trilogy. I look past the sexual parts and focus more on the love story. And it is a wonderful love story. I don't think the movie is going to do it justice. I believe the movie is going to focus on just the opposite than myself. Whos all read them?

    @edelweiss: i loved it - he's my favorite author and his writing is so beautiful… i couldn't put it down and read it in 2 nights. not as good as "kite runner", but i don't know if any book will ever top that one. i rated it 5/5 stars on goodreads.

    A Year Of Biblical Womanhood by Rachel Held Evans. OMG, I am just starting it, but it's been on my list for forever and I finally bought it for myself. Looking amazing!

    @court_schaeff: I tried, I think I finished book number two but couldn't make it through book number 3. I just did not like either character, they annoyed me which makes it hard to fall in love with a book series. It was very hard for me to overlook the horrible editing too, so many grammatical errors for a book that was published so many times! haha I'm such a nerd

    I'm reading four books which is rare for me. I'm usually a one at a time person but three of them are baby books so they don't really "count."

    The Book Thief
    Ina May's Guide to Childbirth
    The Birth Book by Dr. Sears
    Great With Child

    @court_schaeff: yes, a couple years ago- it really cuts down the pages when you skim/skip the sex stuff, it didn't take long to get through all three. I really liked the love story and was glad I finished it. I don't have any interest in the movies though.

    Current books- I just finished a holiday Mary Kay Andrews (southern chick lit) and am trying to decide which John Green to start on.
