The book is awesome :) I haven't watched the movie though.

Works for me, Karen.

I just downloaded it. There are 27 chapters excluding Prologue. How do you want to breakdown? (I'm doing e so I can't tell page numbers)

I finished up yesterday. It was very tightly paced and I couldn't put it down at all. I'm definitely picking up the next book in the series (and the page numbers seems to increase at will)

Up next to start are & both of which are Buddy Reads. I might have over-committed on the BR...

Are we all ready to start today? (Or tomorrow for those in US)

Emily - we'll keep your grandmother in our thoughts. Good luck with your final!

So what's everyone reading? How's the planning for the August Challenge?

LOL, Leslie! We are a good match then :)

Here's the mod instructional post: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

Congrats, Amy J on solving that monster of a jigsaw.

You have to upload the screenshot to either tinypic.com or photobucket.com. Once you upload, it'll give you a HTML sharing link which you just paste in the thread.

Welcome, Jena & Allison!!

That looks really interesting, Sarah. Added to my TBR!

::grin:: Could be. That didn't strike me AT ALL :P

I don't think we really discussed this when we buddy-read this (atleast I'm pretty sure we all did) but she (view spoiler)[intentionally miscarries which is almost a *murder*. I can't imagine anybody doing that consciously. I felt she was treated too kindly. (hide spoiler)] I'm not sure why it's hitting me this time and not the first. Maybe I was too engrossed in Max & Louise's story..?!

So a little update on my reading:

I still haven't finished reading - I've been concentrating on shorter books during the read-off and totally neglected this. Worst reading buddy ever.

Also buddy-reading - This book is fast paced compared to the previous and I'm totally loving it.

Also finished re-reading yesterday - an impromptu read in my library. Still love this book but I think Philadelphia needed more retribution.

I'm actually amazed you read a book. I didn't have time to sleep during the week of my wedding (our wedding is a two day affair and we have other post-wedding happenings too). And totally amazed you didn't take a family photo.

I'm glad you loved . You should try next.

Really beautiful, Leslie!! And I think 2 photos is a little low for a wedding ;)

Leslie, that's a beautiful picture. Congrats to the couple! And what Rebecca said. You should enjoy this time with your family! :)

@Diane: Yay! Congrats on kicking your reading slump!!

This is interesting. I'm from India and as far as I remember, my parents, brother and I used to sleep together always. When our grandmother (grandfather passed away when I was still a baby) was visiting, we used to sleep with her. She used to tell us the best bed time stories.

Even now if I'm visiting alone (w/o hubby), I either sleep with my grandmother or my mother. We gossip till we fall asleep.

@Katie: You've become a reading machine. Go, Katie!
