Currently reading " On Earth we're gorgeous briefly " It's autobiographical work of a son who writes to his illiterate mother. I've completed half of it and so far loving it.
I'm currently reading Michelle Obama's 'Becoming' and Renee Carlino's 'Swear on this Life: A Novel.' I am thoroughly enjoying both of them.

I loved Ordinary Grace and This Tender Land is on my TBR list!
Finished
From Sea to Stormy Sea: 17 Paintings by Great American Artists and the Stories They Inspired ed by Lawrence BlockMy review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I'm reading 'Manchild in the Promised Land' by Claude W. Brown. It's a struggle for me to get through because it seems like an exaggerated account of the fictionalized life of the author, which makes it appear to be unrealistic.
I just finished reading "Finding Meaning" by David Kessler. A very nice book about moving on. He shares many true stories including his own which adds a lot of credibility to his words.Now I am reading "Gene Eating" by Dr. Giles Yeo about the human appetite and how it is impacted by our genes as well as the environment. So far it is proving to be an interesting read and quite informative.
I'm reading Million Dollar Cowboy by Lori Wilde. I read her latest book in her Cupid, Texas series and enjoyed it so much I ordered the ones I didn't have so I could catch up on the series.
I finished The Splendid and the Vile. I also finished reading Thirteen Days, by Robert Kennedy. I am currently reading The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.
Hey. I'm reading "The Rift Between Us" by Rebecca Marsh and "Wingbound" by Heather Trim. Both are excellent. The Wingbound series is more for a young adult reader but can be enjoyed by all.
I loved The Splendid and the Vile (and I'm not usually a non-fiction fan) as well as The Book Thief . I'm now reading The Game of Thrones and listening to Daisy Jones and the Six .
Just finished
A Fatal Fiction by [author:Kaitlyn Dunnett|63561Can’t resist a beautiful ‘book’ cover!

I just finished reading Verity by Colleen Hoover and am in the process of reading Cilka’s Journey by Heather Morris. Highly recommend reading Verity!! Blew me away.
Judy, he was running job opportunity ads on several GR threads. I wanted to know why that was allowed. Looks like they have been taken down, now.
I'm asking anyone who has read Volume II of "Tares among the Wheat" if they caught the symbolic metaphor of the wobbly table in the hotel dining room.
May, that’s good. I’m new here and noticed there’s just so many people advertising about their new book or looking for reviews and things that don’t even pertain to Oprah’s book club !! Isn’t there any club where people can just talk about what they’re reading without other people advertising?!!
I am currently reading 'In The Shade of the Jacaranda' by Nikki Arana and then will read 'A Spark of Fire' by Jodi Picoult. I like Jodi Picoult's books, Maeve Binchy's and Charlene Carr's books. I love most Women's Fiction books, but will often read mystery and suspense too.

Isn’t there..." I'm with you! I just scroll past all of those posts to get to this one.I have just started reading Race Politics in Britain and France by Erik Bleich (my son!)
Hello, I'm Sa! Hope to write more reviews on my blog Culture Shocks sometime. Currently reading Chop Wood, Carry Water (Joshua Medcalf)
