Let me know how you enjoy this movie Elizabeth. I haven't read a page yet. I've been watching Under the Dome in anticipation of the second season. I seem to be a bit late to this tv series based on the book by Stephen King.

Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Fannie FlaggI remember watching this movie when I was younger, so when I saw the book, I had to pick it up and give it a try! :-)
I'm currently reading
,
and
. Then from time to time I read one or two chapters from
,
and
(thinking about not reading Thoughtless though).
I just finished The Fault in Our Stars and don't know what to read next. Guess I'll flip through my kindle and choose something. Why am I such a mood reader? LOL
I am currently listening to 12 Years a Slave on Audio Book and reading A Time To Kill by John Grisham. So far - both are very good books. Grisham tends to slow down in the middle but the pace is picking back up again.
I finished reading Stay Another Night which was mild thriller/mystery and I have now moved on to The Secrets Sisters Keep which is a contemporary novel.
I'm currently reading The Secret Keeper and am currently listening to the audiobook of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore
I've just started Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut and am on the homestretch of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace
I'm currently reading The Fall of the House of Usher and Other Tales. So far, purely AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just finished the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer. Loved it so much I ordered the next two in the trilogy. I'm currently reading three other books.City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare,
Legend by Marie Lu,
And Looking for Alaska by John Green.
I loved Mara Dyer! Can't wait to read the Retribution of Mara Dyer! I just finished reading the Archived by Victoria Schwab
and it was amazing! Also read If I Stay by Gayle Forman
which is now one of my favorites. Currently, I am reading Second Chance by Morgan Matson Summer
i just finished Don't Wait For Me right after The Fault in Our Stars..so I really need a happy book. I didn't expect "don't wait for me" to be so sad
I finished "The Mists of Avalon" by Marion Zimmer Bradley not long ago. I bought it based on my loving the mini-series and I am so glad I did. It is great book. The word is unforgettable.Currently rereading: "The Wheel of Time" by Robert Jordan and "Shadows of the Apt" by Adrian Tchaikovsky. Both are series. I recommend them very highly. Especially "Shadows of the Apt". It is amazing.
I just finished Under the Dome by Stephen King I highly recommend it. I also just read Salem's Lot also by Stephen King and it was just okay for me. I've been on a bit of a King craze lately I just picked back up on the Dark Tower series where I am in the third novel titled The Wastelands.
I've been looking for something other than Stephen King but his literary work is genius and I just can't decide what to move on too next. If anyone has any suggestions on a great trilogy or single book I would appreciate it. Thanks everybody
Stacy - That one does sound good. I have it on my TBR too. Most of my Goodreads friends rated it highly.
Currently reading Innocence by Dean Koontz. Compared to the books he's been putting out in the last several years which have been some of his worst, this one is quite good.

Vesy wrote: "Karen M, I like mysteries. I might check it out. Do you like Agatha Christie?"Actually there wasn't all that much mystery to the book. It was a good read but not my idea of a mystery. I love Agatha Christie. I've read more of her books than any other author. Over 25 and counting.
Continue to read The Apple Orchard and today I also began reading Orange is the New Black and listening to China Dolls.

I'm currently reading a lot of books. The ShiningI'm halfway through and things are getting pretty exciting. The Great GatsbyJust started it and so far so good.

The Complete Grimm's Fairy Talesif you like to read something different from the fairytales you know, this is the perfect book for you.
