Go to add book/author at the top of the comment box. Type in book you want to add. Go to the bottom at make sure it says cover instead of link. Click add. :)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I don't post on this thread too often because I rarely can meet my goals due to constant spontaneous requests from family and other things all the time. But I want to try more often.

Today:

11/22/63 by Stephen King - Chapters 11-14

That's probably all I'll have time for today.

I can never read this one for very long. It doesn't really keep me interested. But hopefully since I'm almost half way through it may get a bit more interesting and I'll be able to read more.

How are you liking The Magicians? I absolutely love it and have read it like 3 times, but know a lot of people who didn't really care for it.

If you ever find yourself wanting to re-read the Curse Workers series, I highly recommend the audio book.

it's narrated by Jesse Eisenberg and he does a WONDERFUL job! :)
