Hi! Currently reading The Girl on the Train and LOVING IT! Hoping the movie does it justice much like Gone Girl. I read that book and LOVED the movie as well!

I love historical romance, fiction and non-fiction.
The Twelve Tribes of Hattie was really good! Another two that I read this year..."
I loved the Twelve Tribes of Hattie too! A books that has left a big impression on me is a Man Called Ove by Frederik Backman. It is grumpy, laugh out loud funny, extremely touching, sad and wonderful. It is one of the best books I've ever read!

Hi, Angela ~
One of the BEST books I have recently read is The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah. It takes place during WWII and presents a side of of the war I never knew existed. I guarantee you will not be able to put it down. Let me know how you like it.

My names Jen and I'm in sunny, hot and humid Florida. Any how, I'm currently reading Olive Kitteridge but I can't get through it fast enough so I can read my daughter's copy of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.
My friend is on a post-apocalyptic kick and lends me all the new books she finds. So I read The road which was short but great. Also Wool series from Hugh Howey is pretty great, currently reading Shift. Maybe a niche genre?
Hi, My name is Radmila. I'm from Vancouver, Canada. I started reading Gone with the wind last week, Boy oh boy... It will take me forever, not impressed so far...
Michelle wrote: "Right now I'm listening to "Last Man Standing" by David Baldacci. I love his books."Don't know if you have ever listened to his books before. The first time I did, I nearly fell down my steps when actual gun shots and bomb explosions were going off in my headphones while cleaning the house.
Sarah - I have a reading rule that if the book doesn't grab me in the first 10%, then I abandon the book. So if a book is 358 pages, those first 35 pages need to be stellar. There are too many good books out there. Leave this one and go onto the next!
If anyone like inspirational books?Book of triumph over an illness etc?If yes Il send a link to a book I think you might like
I enjoy Reading and writing fiction.Vivid book read, Mice of men, to kill a Mockingbird.
(From Triumph of the Egg, A book of impressions from American Life in Tale and Poems. 1921)
Quick reads by Great writers. Still adding to my list. I usually wait for all 5 of my kids are in bed, before I read and write.
you can try the Paris wife by Paula MC lain. its one of the most intriguing books I have read till date..
