Just finished Cormac McCarthy's The Road. My boyfriend is going to be taking me to see the movie in the next couple of weeks, and I wanted to read it to see what I'm getting into. I usually like post-apocalyptic fiction, but I guess I'm more of a Canticle for Leibowitz or Alas, Babylon kind of reader. I thought The Road was pretentious crap. Who uses the word "palimpsest?"

So ... this one next: The Politically Incorrect Guide to Darwinism and Intelligent Design


Then Under the Dome - haven't been a King fan for years but this one looks good!




Kathleen Deauxville has a great Medieval series. if you can find it Annette Motely My Ladys Crusade is wonderful, medieval English Lady travels to Outemer to search for her lost husband on crusade, she finds more danger then friends, love and horrors she could only guess but it's a fantastic read. Also if you like great historical facts and romance check out any of Elizabeth Chadwicks, her Ravenstow triology is historical romance but most of her other works are tagged historical fiction but have romance in them. Kathleen Woodiwiss' The Wolf and the Dove is medieval romance and one of my all time favorites.
hopefully you might find something you like from these suggestion, I am a huge history nut but love my medieval books the most including mt romance so if I remember more or come across something will let you know.

Thank you, again!


Thank you! I also registered at the link you sent me. I'm scanning the boards now.





Lol, I know! I saw in the saw and I thought 'what the heck, sounds interestinhg and everybody likes it.' Lol.

You're in for a treat! The pages go flying by and you won't notice the length of the chapters.

I just finished Smashed Story of a Drunken Girlhood. I loved this book.
I am going to be starting Demons Not Included A Night Tracker Novel tonight.
I am finally reading Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris. I am really liking it so far. Very interesting.


Now I'm going to try and finish Sin and Syntax How to Craft Wickedly Effective Prose.

Now beginning Howl's Moving Castle


Im not entirly sure what I will start reading next though!


I'm only on page 11, but the first few pages have only been all right. Has anyone else read this book?

I hadn't previously heard of the book OR the author, but the synopsis sounds intriguing. Will be interested to see how much you like it.

You definitely have to read the sequel Catching Fire. I liked it even better than Hunger Games and I loved Hunger Games. I can't wait for the next book.

Go read Catching Fire!

Another great story."
I love Julie Garwood. She's definitely my favorite historical romance author. I don't like her contemporary stuff though.

A Breath of Snow and Ashes- I'm struggling to keep interested in this one.
