Just got back from the library with:
Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
The Gargoyle
That Old Cape Magic
I had to return Guernsey awhile back before I finished it so I will read the rest of it and be ready to start The Gargoyle on Friday.

Thanks! It might be awhile, I'm reading Pillars of the Earth in between several other books. I usually don't read anything in a series but three books is ok, if I can get through Pillars I can read three books!!

I want to read this but should I read the previous two books first?
Just put The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets, The Gargoyle and The Hunger Games on hold at the library. I finished reading And Never Let me Go which I didn't care that much for, thought it was kinda slow and boring. I finished reading John Grisham's Ford County last night, not his best by far.

No Julie No LOL! I just bought War and Peace at a yard sale Thursday :-)

I bought War and Peace today so I'll be reading that one off and on for the rest of my life :-)
I was in Half Price Books myself today looking for the Thirteenth Tale. An employee ran over my foot with her cart, broke my shoe so I got mad and left empty handed. I should sue them for a book :-)
Stopped by a used bookstore and a yard sale and bought:
Ann Of Green Gables
War and Peace
Jane Eyre
Only spent $3.75!
Read today in the news Frank McCourt was diagnosed with melanoma. I only hope they caught it early.

It ripped my heart out right from the start. I threw the book down and and doubled over in tears. I had to MAKE myself pick that book back up but I knew I had to finish it. (He lived it, so I WILL read it) Never ever again will I read about this, not ever. God bless them all, I will never be the same after reading this book, ever. It still haunts me.
I started reading Night by Elie Wiesel last night, I was up until 5:00 am, I couldn't put the book down.
I only read the end if it's a book I know I won't finish, I feel I should at least know the ending if I've read over 100 pages or so.
When I can't figure what to read next, I play "The Pointing Game". Basically, I gather a few books I want ..."</i>
Heh, will you choose my next book? I have 10 books on my bookshelf I haven't read that I've recently purchased. Pick a number 1 - 10!
Went to the DMV to get my motorcylce operator's manual and had to stop into the used bookstore nextdoor. I bought The Alchemist and Shadow of the Wind for $2.20! Love used bookstores!
