Currently reading The Corrections for the bookgroup at my LBS. Not sure I like any of the characters but it's definitely interesting.

Will start Sarah's Last Wish next.

[Maggie]

Have had a bit of a mammoth read up over the last week, due to spending a few days feeling unwell. Caught up on a few books, some better than others.

Am about to start a Stephen King novel - haven't read anything by him for a few decades. It may or may not be a good idea. Just waiting for Spring to start (and September too - want to clear more TBR's).

[★ Jess]

Eh, just start early Maggie, Brenda has allowed it in another thread :)

Which King novel are you going to read? I love him.

Is it weird that the only Stephen King book I've read was On Writing?

Not if that's the only one you wanted to read Knowledge;D I have read quite a lot, but not recently.

Hi all,

Well back at home today in bed with the flu. Tried to go to work yesterday but I dont think my clients liked being coughed at!!! So I am in bed now and reading Beyond Fear. Not sure about it yet but I am only up to Chapter 6. Then after that am going to read Before I go to Sleep, after all the comments on here! Wish me luck!!!

2 fabulous books Janine IMO!!! I thoroughly enjoyed Beyond Fear, and the fact that it was based around the area I live made it even better, with the author also from here! And Before I Go to Sleep was awesome!!! Enjoy!! And I do hope you get better soon:)

I'm just starting Prelude to Christopher for university. Has anyone else read it?

[Shane]

It's my first Gaiman novel, but so far (40ish pages) very impressed.
His characterizations are excellent.

Crank

I've been told this is a great book by so many people, so now I shall give it a try. Plus a bnus is that it is in poem format!

Maggie, did you end up finding Sarah's Last Wish? Did you see my review, and the link to the website where you can buy the book?

[Shane]

Maggie wrote: "Shane wrote: ""

:-) So far, all signs point to yes!

[★ Jess]

Neil Gaiman is fantastic, end of story.
I would say 'Neverwhere' is my favorite, but in all honesty, all of his works are so different-yet all magnificent.
I just finished re-reading his young-adult book, The Graveyard Book, which I gave 4 stars.

Now I am starting The Power of Six, which is the sequel to 'I am Number Four'

[[deleted user]]

I think Neverwhere is my fav too...but I do love the graveyard books and its drawings

[★ Jess]

They're both really good. Have you read Smoke and Mirrors?

[[deleted user]]

no not yet I'm planing of buying a copy

Dont have a copy of it yet but am planning to order a couple of books soon and will include it with them.

Neverwhere is a great read. One of the most enjoyable books I have read for a while. Definitely move it up the TBR list.

Jess I am about to start I Am Number Four in the morning. Didnt realise there was a sequel. I'm also going to find a few more of Neil Gaiman's books, having enjoyed Neverwhere so much.

[★ Jess]

I hope you enjoy I Am Number Four Maggie!

I thought Crank was absolutely amazing. The story behind it all is so tragic but it pulls you in because of that exact reason. I started it on Friday, finished that and Glass(the sequel to crank) on Saturday, then I started her book Identical Saturday night and finished it about an hour ago. Identical is a major trip though.

Now I am going to start reading Tweak by Nic Sheff

Then his sequel to it

Hi all, I'm new :)

This group caught my eye!

I'm reading Tara Moss's

Enjoying the fresh youthful voice and immersion in NY City! Very fast pace and sharp!

[Sherri]

Carmel wrote: "Wow Sherri you're flying through them!!"

Lol, Carmel, I have nothing else to do all day!!!! Plus I've always been an avid reader ever since I learned to read :)
I guess that's why my college path is going to be books.

And welcome to the group Kim :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Finished Big Girl my review http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Just started The Interrogator and even though I'm only a few pages in, it's gripping me already! David, (Tasblogger), a recommendation for you, this one, I think.....:)

[Sherri]

And I've actually started To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee as well :)

Unbelievably awesome book:)

[Kim]

Hi Brenda,
Thank you for the welcome! I'm going there now.

Cheers!

[Sherri]

To Brenda and Carmel: I haven't yet seen the movie but that'll be after I read the book because I always prefer to read the book then watch the movie that was based on it!!!

[Sherri]

Carmel wrote: "Well Sherri I'm sure you'll find the book such a worthwhile read and the movie an experience you'll not forget."

I hope so as well :) I've always had a nick for finding books I'll like, I have hardly ever found a book I didn't like

Anybody else read "The Help"?

[Sherri]

Really? Wow, I do have to say, I am from the South and yes I am proud of it but not the aspect of how everyone treated people back then

Welcome Kim. I belong to a few Goodreads groups and this is by the far the most fun and informative. Be warned - expect your TBR list to grow and grow! Join in the challenges if you have time - they are fun and no one minds if you don't complete them - just making the list is fun in itself.

I see you're an author of a book I have reserved at my local library. How fantastic is that!
