ok just bought sweetness :) and am 55% on my kindle on Death on the spirit road. so I am ready and yes excited

I am going to go to Amazon after I send this and look into Sweetness and as soon as I finish Spirit road I will start it.

thanks
Very excited about this first book read of mine too!

OK, esp when my DH is on nights I read tons tons tons! I mean I read lots when he is home, but more when I can go to bed early and read late LOL. I truly cannot imagine my life without reading, I would give up food first and that IS aaying a lot :O) I like some foods LOL

Death Along the Spirit Road is chapters. and it is a fast going, like he is telling you the story, not writing it down? and for me as I was born in that area and go visit family, so many of the towns and landmarks and places in Pine Ridge and that area are very familiar to me and no exact names obviously, but there are certain names of the area and some of the last names are those of my relatives LOL, just watching for a *Riding* talked about LOL

so we begin to read Monday? I might be done and then try the sweetness book, cause is it available on kindle? If I dot not enjoy (and one never knows :) I bet my girls will and I will just rad the next one(s) we pick after these two

YOU will love love love your kindle!

I was wondering myself, it sounded more like something my DD2 would enjoy. But I can try to get it at the library if it is the one chosen. I most likely will not buy it on my kindle. I am just starting Dealth Along the Spirit Road, and IT is cool, he references locations and last names I recognize. I enjoy books like that, I can picture the places he is going in my mind clear as a bell.

oh good another reader! FCL what are your thoughts? and everyone else :)

ok lets pick! :)

ok, then four of us for sure, FCL, watsherface, wild kitties and me? so far it aappears we are the four in this thread. anyone else? then we should pick a book and start and anyone else and join in later or participate in our next one :) does that sound ok?

well I vote we just pick one and jump in and we can try another one next time! so whose in?? once we know who all wants to do it, we pick a book and go! yeah

There are also 2 good ones by Lisa Genova "Left Neglected" from Amazon kindle $11.99, book $14.64
and "Still Alice" kindle $9.99 book $9.18 the Alice book is one about a harvard professor in the early onset of Alzheimer's, and how it affects her life as it progressesd. Left Nglected is a busy working mom is in a horrible auto accident and suffers from "left Neglect" a brain disorder and how it affects her life, her husbands and her children. I have both on my kindle. Just tossing titles out. I am about half way through "In the Past Imperfect" by Isabelle Solal, will not say more so as to not spoil it for those who have yet to read it.

Peep with the friend who is the Author is Wendypiqmael (sp) on last part :)

I am going too read it shortly :) And I also downloaded and there is also a hard copy of "Death Along the Sprit road" By Curt Wendelboe. He is a retured deputy who worked in my county and I worked with him for many years. It is based on an area where I was born, Pine Ridge SD. he is having his book signing tomorrow at our library from 2-4, I think I will attend. does anyone have any suggestions or desires. Look up Curt's book too I think it sounds good.

Did we ever decide on a book to read as a group? does it have to be the whole group of us, or can the ones who want to read it share and have several mini rads going on? Just checking cause I am getting close (not toooo close) to being ready to finish the book I am reading and read the next one. I was not sure if we were going to read "In the Past Imperfect" as a group. It does not matter to me, but I do not want to read it wasy ahead of everyone. Thanks and let me know

I will ask about that format too :)

oh dang...well the lady who wrote the book is a friend of a person from MM peeps, so maybe we can see what can be done. she, of course, wants to be able to sell copies not just give all away. I thought there was a way to share kindle books with nooks now? in a pdf format or something? or get a kindle ap on a computer or phone etc?

I have a way to possibly get the book in PDF for FCL, How many of us are planning to do the read, and will get it on our kindles? I have it on mine already

I will ask Wendy on FB if she knows if it is a hard copy book too

Hummm I do not know if Solal's book is a hard copy book. I got it as a kindle book, have you checked other spots, let me know where you checked and I can check the ones I know.

How about "Red Hook Road" by Ayelet Waldman or maybe that one Wendy a peep and on FB suggested today to buy that her friend wrote, it was "In the Past Imperfect" by Isabelle Solal, and right now as a kindle book it is $3.49 It looks good
