I enjoyed the first one, to be honest. I haven't bought the second one yet though.

I really want to finish up the Stephanie Plum series, but I only own up to Seven Up right now and after picking up about 10-15 books on the weekend at garage sales and from my sister in law, I've got a lot of reading to do before I can buy any more with a clear conscience...."


Erin: Don't forget, the library makes reading free! I love my library.

Courtney: Don't know about audio book version but I read The Lost Symbol and gave it a 4 star (see my review to see why I didn't give it a 5). I have liked all of Brown's books in this series.

Oh, I know, Denise. My problem is I have a bad habit of forgetting to return books. Libraries frown on that. And right now I've got about 20 books waiting to be read.

We have a used bookstore here that works out well for me, for every two books I return, I can get another.


message 205: by Courtney (new)

Courtney (cddimmitt) My next audiobook will be The Beach House by Jane Green. My next Kindle book will be Anne's House of Dreams by L.M. Montgomery. My next hard copy book will
probably be Hero at Large by Janet Evanovich.

Caroline | 661 comments Well, I am reading Best in Show (Judi McCoy) and Reel Murder (Mary Kennedy) but I'm also going to start Huckleberry Finished (A Delilah Dickinson Literary Tour Mystery, #2) by Livia J.

I have both the books you mentioned in The Pile. I've looked at the Livia Washburn series a couple of times. I don't care for her Fresh-Baked series at all, but this one might have possibilities.

What YA are you reading? I like YA paranormal! I also really enjoy Diana Killian's yoga series and MURDER ON THE EIGHTFOLD PATH didn't disappoint.


message 216: by Courtney (new)

Courtney (cddimmitt) I'm nearing the end of my audiobook. I think I'm going to try The Lost Symbol again. Everything else I want to read I have slated to read in July for challenges.

I am also reading a YA at the moment before my next Cozy.. It is the Secret Circle series I read the first book and I am now reading the Second, the Captive/Power. The Captive, Part II and The Power (The Secret Circle, #2-3) by L.J. Smith Have you read them Melodie, What did you think? I am enjoying them, but they are different than I imagined..
The next book on my cozy list is Heaven Preserve Us (A Home Crafting Mystery) by Cricket McRae Heaven Preserve Us

I haven't read The Secret Circle books. I've read The Vampire Diaries, the first 4 of which I enjoyed but the 5th & 6th not so much. I also have her Night Visions and one of the Night World books in The Pile somewhere. I really like Cricket McRae's Home Crafting books and am currently reading the newest,

Something Borrowed, Something Bleu A Home Crafting Mystery by Cricket McRae .

Courtney (cddimmitt) Up next I'm thinking Some Like it Lethal (Blackbird Sisters Mystery, #3) by Nancy Martin or Demons are a Ghoul's Best Friend (Ghost Hunter Mystery, #2) by Victoria Laurie . I might also go with a graphic novel a friend loaned me.

message 234: by Courtney (last edited Jul 01, 2010 12:09PM) (new)

Courtney (cddimmitt) Melodie, I'm really excited to start it! I've been wanting to read it for awhile now. Although, the book I'm currently reading on my Kindle may take me a bit.

Michelle (mgauffant) | 63 comments I finally found Room with a Clue by Kate Kingsbury, the first in the Pennyfoot hotel series! It's been impossible to find a new or used copy, and my library doesn't own it.
I finally found it at an indie bookstore. Very excited to read it.


message 246: by Sue (new)

Sue (suetinge) | 622 comments I'm not sure, I may read another Agatha Christie. I've been wanting to re-read Postern of Fate and Murder on the Orient Express. I've also got several of the China Bayles and Meg Lanslow books on hand.
