Welcome to all the new ladies! If you are looking to broaden your horizons, this group as well as GR in general, you will definitely do that!!! Your TBR list will grow by enormous amounts!
Finished up The Angel's Game last night. Now I have to go back to school work and finish a paper..... then to decide what I will read next.
I splurged today and went to B&N... had a gift card and a 50% off coupon..... I got
The Stand... havent read King in YEARS... thought I'd give him another try
I, Alex Cross..my all time favorite author James Patterson
The Piano Teacher Janice Y. K. Lee
Mrs. Kimble Jennifer Haigh... was on clearance
East of Eden... Steinbeck... have always wanted to read this one
Got them all for less than $40!
Welcome to all the new ladies!! You are going to love it here, and will become just as addicted to this site as you are to reading!!
I LOVED "The Shadow of the Wind"! It was a beautifully written book. I am reading his "The Angel's Game" now.

That was the first one that I read by her. Some people have said that "Good Grief" was better, but I am not sure I want to try it :)
About to start
Good thing I am off work for the next 10 days..... time to read for fun and not get behind on school work!
No, Holli....
It had the chance to be really good, but went downhill....... and then the ending was rushed and had no real conclusion. Its a good thing that I only paid $3 for it, otherwise I would have been mad.

Wanted to welcome all the new ladies! You all are going to love it here and I am sure that you will all find TONS of new books to read!

The Gargoyle.............. will be reading it as I go to bed, after all my patho and research
I have been reading on the Nook and you can make notes, highlight and bookmark the ebooks....... and it is correct, that you can only lend a book out one time.
I was wondering if anyone has seen, pre-ordered or owns one of the new e-Readers from Barnes & Noble???? If so, what do you like/hate about and how does it compare to the Kindle???
Here is a link for you...
