Annie - I loved She's Come Undone! One of my favorites ever!!!

Just finished The Secret Bride In The Court of Henry VIII and wasn't too thrilled. Now I'm reading The Perfect Royal Mistress A Novel. We'll see if the one's any better.

I can't wait to read The Handmaid's Tale!!! :)

Thanks guys!

Yup.. she's back. Again. Haha. I know I've been hiding, but here I am. With school, work.. and well everything else, I haven't had much time to myself. Been having troubles with life in just about all areas, then add buying my first house on top of this semester's homework. YAY! I'm just taking it one day at a time though. Reading is pulling me though. Although I've only been reading on my iphone lately, since I can sneak and read it at work. Nevertheless, I'm back again and plan on staying. I missed everyone!!!!

Just finished The Calligrapher's Daughter A Novel and I absolutely loved it. Another historical fiction (I know, I know), but it was wonderful.

I loved The Help. I honestly felt like I was there in their little kitchen.. listening in on the interviews. Haha.

I see it as Kayne trying to stand for something, for a cause, but he's too stupid to stand for a good one. Haha. I guess he's like a lot of other idiot celebrities who voice their opinions only to get laughed at.

All the same... I just say what a idiot. The sad thing, kids will get their parents to buy his book.

I'm reading Eve A Novel of the First Woman and Second Glance A Novel and I'm lovin both!!

Jess.. let me know how the year of pleasures goes. That one's been on my shelf for a while. Thanks!! =)

Hey girls!!! It's been so long since I've been on here!!! The main reason... they blocked this website at work a while back :( I guess they caught me on it the whole time I was supposed to be working. Haha. But anyways, I think it's safe to say I'm back for good this time. And I've still been reading... read I think 6 books already since classes have been out.

There's so many new people here!!! So hi everyone!! I was on here all the time a while back... so in a nutshell... I'm Lauren, I'm a senior at Kentucky Wesleyan College majoring in Corporate Communications, I work part time at a bank, and I hope one day to be a branch manager. I love books, of course... um... I'm a nerd... I used to play WoW, but haven't in a while, I also play video games with my bf. Haha. We've been dating 4 years this month. He got me a ring, but we are calling it an anniversary ring. Haha. But it looks like an engagement ring. Haha. We will eventually get married, but we're in no rush. We're trying to buy our first house. That's about all I can think of. I'm a good listener, love everybody (unless they are a smart ass), and I really missed everyone here!!

Wow... that wasn't exactly a nutshell, but hey. Anyways I'm glad I'm back!! =)

Well I finally got my iphone (my bf has been working at AT&T for a while now) and I got the Kindle for the iphone app and holy crap!!!! I bought and read Change of Heart in like 2 days on there while at work!!! LOL I finally found a way to sneak and read books without getting caught. LOL

Finished She's Come Undone not too long ago. I absolutely loved it. =) Now I'm on Second Glance A Novel.
