Nancy, I read Boy's Life and I loved it. I don't know why I haven't gotten around to Swan Song, yet.

Kenneth McKinley | 277 comments Finished up two solid offerings. Wrath of the Ancients Wrath of the Ancients by Catherine Cavendish by Catherine Cavendish and Worlds Between My Teeth Worlds Between My Teeth by Tim Meyer by Tim Meyer. Definitely worth checking out. My reviews of both are here -

Aditya Started with DC quartet by George Pelecanos.
Finished The Big Blowdown & King Suckerman the first two novels in the series. Pelecanos is a good writer but his plots are threadbare at best. The first book was better than the second and I am looking forward to wrap up the series soon.
My thoughts on The Big Blowdown https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
My thoughts on King Suckerman https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Also almost caught up with Harry Bosch series, just one more book to go.

Aditya Quick noobish question: How do you edit comments or add book links while making a comment on Goodreads App? I have started using it recently, seems to lack a few features compared to the regular desktop version.

You can't. The app sucks. I never use the app for posting comments.


message 4971: by Nancy (new)

Nancy (paper_addict) | 942 comments For some book title you can enter the book link as follows:

[ book:title ]

Example:

[ book:Gone with the wind ]

Leaving out the spaces next to the brackets it will look like this:

Gone with the wind

This only works with some book titles though not all.

Matt | 193 comments It's been the summer of James Rollins for me. Right now I'm on The Devil Colony. It's been fun, though a little mindless. I think I'm going to take a break after this and finally read Make Room, Make Room by Harry Harrison.

A good palate cleanser!

After reading Alice and The Red Queen, followed by an SK interlude (isn't it always nice to get back to reading something of his?) I'm currently onto The Lost Boy by Christina Henry.

I also read A Little Life back in May/ June. Anyone here read it?


message 4981: by mrbooks (new)

mrbooks | 1469 comments Oh Matthew really, well to each his own I after all read the Earth Children Series, LOL


message 4983: by Saar The Book owl (new)

Saar The Book owl | 9 comments @Steven: what are your thoughts about A Little Life? I've started the book, but then stopped. It's a big book and I need the time to read it.

@Matthew: there you have a point. A lot of people think it's all about the sex, but the psychology and the relationship are more interesting. I only read the first book.


message 4984: by Aditya (new)

Aditya Finished The Sweet Forever by George Pelecanos. His best book so far, a great gritty crime novel.

So, I've read them all (50 Shades), and agree that the relationship is really interesting. And it can't be all about the sex because those parts are really badly done, and repetitive. My question is what does a woman see in this guy? Oh yeah, billionaire, troubled, obsessive, "beautiful" man, who will drop anything and rush to her aid no matter where she is or what the problem is. Who will insist on buying her clothes, and cars, and charm everyone she knows even her down-to-earth step dad. Who loves the classic romantic novels (especially Hardy) and plays the piano beautifully, who can fly a copter and a glider and - whether she likes it or not - will up-grade her travel to first class and buy the seat beside it so that it will be empty on the flight. Who even goes so far as to draw up a contract so that they have to know what kind of sex okay and what is off limits. Oh yeah, he's moody and has a BDSM playroom.
