I'm currently reading 5 books. Yeah, I know, one of "those" people. I've always been like this. Anyway, here are the titles:
1. The Dave Test by Frederick W. Schmidt
2. Plaster City by Johnny Shaw
3. Sanctum by Sarah Fine
4. The Men Who United the States by Simon Winchester
5. Pele's Altar by Michael A. Maney
I have paperbacks, hardcovers and Kindle books...makes no difference to me.


Hi Michael...glad to see I'm not the only one reading multiple books on here. I've got 5 going right now, so you've got me beat by one, darn it! ;)

Great book and series! Enjoy!"
Yep I did, as I had said a few posts earlier some of the books in the series were rereads for me Sassinak included.

I love to read a bunch of different books at a time. It keeps life interesting!

A Confederacy of Dunces, Where'd You Go, Bernadette (which I'm really enjoying), The Unbearable Lightness of Being (just started), Shiloh (reading with my son).
Thanks for giving a name to this fun madness.


Hi Sandy, Very sorry about the deaths in your husbands family. Hope you find your humour book.
I'm finally reading The Jungle Book! Should have read it 25 years ago, but better late than never...

Hi Amy, I loved it! I liked the different frustrations that the characters were experiencing. And seeing life through the mind of an autistic 15 year old, I just didn't know until this book. I would recommend highly. Also, highly recommend Where'd You Go, Bernadette.

Lorah, I hope you love "We Have Always Lived in the Castle". I honestly only read it because I saw it on your bookshelf as "to read" and thought the cover was cute. I pegged it as one of my favorites this year so far.





I read this in 2012 and I really liked it. Enjoy!
I have the sequels in my to-read pile, maybe I will get to them next month




I'm also trying my first audiobook


I'm also reading Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions which is interesting so far, providing some perspective on why we make certain decisions and how our decisions can be manipulated.
11% into Dune and I'm really starting to get into it! There's just such a long way to go though!
MUST. KEEP. READING.

Way Station by Clifford D. Simak was really good. It's quite a quick read too.

I finally admitted to myself I'm not going to be able to finish a couple of my April reads by the end of the month. A Briefer History of Time just isn't something I can rush through. My genre humor read is Beasts and Super-Beasts, and even though I like short stories I really don't like to read them one right after the other. They're both books I like though.
