Currently Reading and Recommendations
Currently reading 1q84 by harking hurakami. Not bad, but it is a monster of a book and weighs a ton!!!
I am vurrently reading Salvation of a Saint by Keigo Hidashino. It is very good so far. I would highly recommend The Devotion of Suspect X by the same author, it has one of the best plots I have ever read.
I just finished The Glass Castle and started The Great Gatsby and Much Ado About Nothing for my English class
I'm about to start 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' for an independent read for English class, I hope I like it!!
I recently finished reading Earthbound, a short story collection by Kenneth Radu. It was amazing.
I finished Paulo Coelho's recent "Manuscript Found in Accra".Published its review here
kindly check and comment. :-)
The Orphan Master's SonThis was a knockout, tour de force. Not so much a thriller but a thrilling exploration of the human condition, how we can be conditioned to almost anything and how the most repressive, tyrannical regime, in this case, North Korea, can become normal. The characters are richly drawn and, through their lives, we get a master class in figuring out our identity. Beautifully written, wonderfully conceived and brilliantly executed.
I'm currently reading The Nanny Diaries. I remember HATING the movie but the book always looked very silly. I'm 100 pages in(out of 300) and it is hilarious. If you are in need of a light read in between some heavy novels I would highly suggest this.

I recently finished
and it was one of the most amazing books I've ever read (even though I say that about A LOT of books :)
I just finished Grave Mercy and I am now reading Graceling. I like Grave Mercy, some parts were slow and annoying, but overall I liked it. I hope I enjoy Graceling everyone was raving about it.

I know that sometimes books don't live up to expectations when people rave about them, but I do think this one's very good.
I know it's been awhile since I've been here but I slowed down reading for a while. Now I'm back to reading and just finished
. I'm going to start
later today since it's already late and I've got a busy day later today.

Sybella's story is a very intoxicating and shocking read.

It is very different indeed. I liked the way the book was written. It is certainly a very interesting read.

IKR!
Robin did an amazing job writing this novel.
That's why she's one of my favorite authors. Her writing never ceases to amaze me.
It doesn't lack the element of innovation. It's full of creativity and awesomeness.
GEE! I've babbled like a Bookish maniac *blushing*
I've just finished reading
and enjoyed every bit of it, would definitely recommend it :)I'm also reading
which I got in a first reads giveaway, and
which I got for free on my Kindle :)

Just finished reading India Black by Carol K Carr loved this book so funny in a snide aside style.Her heroine is a Victorian madam who finds herself playing more roles than she wants ......I am now waiting to read number two in this series
So, I'm in a reading slump at the moment. I really want to read a fantasy type romance. I never thought I'd say this but something similar to twilight? Maybe a different concept. Something different and weird. Any suggestions?
Hey, I'm started to read The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank and I have high expectations about this book. I recommend you to read The Storyteller by Antonia Michaelis and The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.Any suggestions for me?
I've finished The Morganville Vampires Book Thirteen: Bitter Blood - Rachel Caine. Now I am going to read Hyde, an Urban Fantasy - Lauren Stewart.
