Your are on a Graham Green streak here, or am I mistaken? And hooray!! for As I Lay Dying.

Roberta | 22 comments Now I'm reading Inferno by Dan Brown but I've finally decided to read in the same time a book in english, Animal Farm by George Orwell. Some times ago I read 1984 by Orwell and I really really enjoyed it!

I have been reading quite a bit of Greene this year, but right now the streak is due to the fact that my library book is actually Classic Tales of Espionage & Suspense: Orient Express/This Gun for Hire/Our Man in Havana/The Ministry of Fear so 4 books in one!

I read Edgar Allan Poe short stories last October in honor of Halloween - they vary in quality but the best ones are very creepy! Enjoy :)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) I'll be reading Styxx by sherrilyn kenyon next which is the new dark hunter novel. I'mgoing to finish the light between oceans today so I can be ready to pick up styxx from the library. I placed it on hold and it came in. Love sherrilyn kenyon's darkhunter, dreamhunter, the league and chronicles of nick series. She's my fave author from tennessee. :-)


message 66: by Charbel (new)

Charbel (queez) | 2729 comments I need help! I don't know what to read next: The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern or The Stand by Stephen King. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!


message 67: by Sally (new)

Sally Rees | 27 comments Hello! I finally made it to posting... I am reading Light Between The Oceans but back to school bedlam for this teacher means my average pages read before I fall into a dead sleep is about 2! I'm looking forward to a weekend of lying up with a pot of coffee and getting stuck in :)


message 68: by Jenny (new)

Jenny (jeoblivion) | 4893 comments Sally!!! You're back! *chicken dance of joy*


message 69: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) The stand by stephen king is pretty good charbel. Definitely check it out.


message 70: by [deleted user] (new)

@Charbel I've read both if those this year. The Stand is a cracking read but long and involved. It took me a good month. The Night Circus is shorter but still quite detailed and involved. As a book, I personally preferred The Stand. I liked both though, so I'm sure you'll enjoy whatever you chose!

I can relate to that, Sally, I'm married to a teacher and he's just the same, he struggles to read at night!

Waiting for Gertrude: I had started it but stopped to wait for dely. Now I have to pick it up again!


message 76: by [deleted user] (new)

Just finished Vanity Fair and now can't decide between the group fiction read or group play. I have both waiting on my kindle and will decide tomorrow as I'm far too tired for a new book tonight


message 77: by LauraT (new)

LauraT (laurata) | 14372 comments Mod
Read both!!! ;)


message 78: by [deleted user] (new)

I will eventually but which order?!


message 79: by LauraT (new)

LauraT (laurata) | 14372 comments Mod
That's more complicated to decide!!!
I'd read them both at the same time!!!! ;)


message 80: by Leslie (new)

Leslie | 16369 comments Heather wrote: "I will eventually but which order?!"

I'd suggest reading The Light Between Oceans first, since the group play will be going on until Dec.


message 81: by [deleted user] (new)

That is an excellent point, Leslie. I think I will start it next so I can join in the discussions.


message 82: by Alannah (new)

Alannah Clarke (alannahclarke) | 14719 comments Mod
I would say the same as Leslie Heather. :) hope you enjoy it as much as I did.


message 83: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) I'm currently reading The Mark of Zorrowhich is a pretty good read so I don't know what to read next after I finish with that one. I want to read Defianceby C.J. Redwine so I may get that one for my birthday next week. It looks pretty good. I got a bunch of ebooks on my tablet too.


message 84: by Leslie (new)

Leslie | 16369 comments I am taking a very long time getting through Conrad's The Secret Agent, but more due to interruptions than anything else. Anyway, the reason I mention it is that due to this longer than expected time, my next reads will be 2 library books due back in a week:
Post Captain and Rosalind Franklin: The Dark Lady of DNA...

Read it at the biginning of this year and liked it a lot. You need to have stomac, though ...
About to start - hopefully tomorrow morning, The Red and the Black after having just finished - and adhored - The Belly of Paris. It is incredible, but it is reminding me of my present situation with my brither and his wife: of course they are the fat and I'm the thin!!!! ;)

Laura - are you really about to start The Red and the Black? I have this as an audiobook and was just thinking about starting it tomorrow!


message 91: by LauraT (new)

LauraT (laurata) | 14372 comments Mod
Really Leslie? I'm starting it tomorrow myself! But I don't think I can listen to it: I don't know any italian audiobook of it nd I'd find it ridicoulous to listen to it in english!!!!


message 92: by Emma (new)

Emma | 124 comments Mockingjay - read the first two in the series by Suzanne Collins but never got onto the third.

I started this and decided to postpone it - I just can't concentrate on it so I will listen to a lighter audiobook. Hope you enjoy it though :)
