I just downloaded sea of tranquility & the book thief last night and also want to dl Tell the Wolves Im Home (recs by a blog friend ;))
-
Madd Adam, Margaret Atwood
So good, but its taking me forever to get through because its a big hardcover copy and I can only read it when my hands are free....so...never.
-
Gone girl ! DH just finished it and told me I have to start it today
-
"Baby Hunger" by Sarah's Laughter.
-
@luckypenny: eh, it took me forever to get into it, i think because of all the hype, i was meh about it.
-
@mrsjyw: I have Tell the Wolves I'm Home and it's been sitting on my bookshelf for months. I should read it!
-
@mrsjyw: I liked Gone Girl up until the end, but her book Dark Places is even better (at least to me it is).
-
@mrsjyw: Lauren graham says "tell the wolves I'm home", so I assume it is
I'm reading game of thrones! I'm about 1/2 way through the first book. It's going to take me forever to get through them all!!!!
-
@mrsjazz: I wasn't surprised n the book otaelf was jist too dark for me.
@sslm: i have the firstbfour books n cantbget into it!
-
@mrsjyw: ok...them you wouldn't like Dark Places! It's darker.
-
@mrsjyw: it probably helps that I watched the first season on TV and really liked it! Have you watched it?
-
@mrsjyw: I wanted to read sea of tranquility, let me know how it is if you start it soon!
-
I'm reading The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. I read it before but I am reading it again to share some of the concepts with some high school students I work with. Great book.
Full disclosure- I love reading trashy novels so it is with some surprise that I report a book that isn't about a time traveling, shape shifting alpha male from Scotland
-
@mrsjyw: I read Tell The Wolves I'm Home for my book club last winter. We all enjoyed it as a good character novel. The boys found it a little slow but the girls all liked it
I just started The First Man In Rome - historical fiction is my fav genre
-
@Bao: readint rt now...def interesting so far
-
@mrsjazz: I agree with dark places being my favorite by Gilliam flynn.
I am reading Beggars in Spain by Nancy kress, scifI about a society where some people have no need for sleep which creates a stratified society and Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell , nonfiction about the real reasons people can achieve great things
-
My book club read The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty (I think?) last month but I didn't get a chance to read it, so that is next on my list!
Oh, and Hubs wants me to read Ender's Game.
-
@Ms.Badger: Outliers has been on my list to read for years! I want to get back into reading soon. It's taking me forever to finish just one book these days, I am currently reading "20 Years Younger" by Bob Greene.
-
@mrsjazz: i'm reading that right now! oh no.. now i'm curious what happens at the end… i've been really resisting the temptation to google.
i'm currently reading gone girl, but i read some really good books this month - i recommend and the mountains echoed, and the fault in our stars!
-
@mrsjyw: i'm 48% into gone girl and so far it's just been ok - i keep waiting for it to get more interesting, but i am curious what the heck happened and just want to skip to the end!
-
A friend recommend "Luminarium" by Alex Shakar, so I'm reading that now. Next up is another novel, "Alif the Unseen"!
I usually read non fiction (or detective novels), so these are a change of pace for me...
-
@Mrs. High Heels: you will probably be pissed at the end! haha. everyone I know who read it was not happy with the ending. but you can't skip because you won't quite understand, so you have to just stick it out! haha! at least you were warned.
-
@mrsjazz: gaahh… now i feel the need to plow through the urge. that is so cryptic - what does it mean that if i don't read it all i won't understand??? if i don't get any sleep tonight trying to finish this book i know exactly who to blame!
-
The Golem and the Jinni. And Momma Zen (which is SO good). Love it.
