I just finished Stuart's "Charlotte" OH MY WORD! Was very good!

Rewan Tremethick (rewantremethick) | 10 comments I'm halfway through Pratchett's Feet of Clay. I think I've read it before, but it was years ago, and I'm very much enjoying it again the second time round (to be honest, I've forgotten so much of it it just feels like reading a brand new book).

I recently acquired about 24 of the Discworld novels, so that's my reading sorted out for the foreseeable future!

That's a lot of reading Rewan!
I just started reading James Patterson's Hide and Seek. I think I like :) so far so good!

Rewan Tremethick (rewantremethick) | 10 comments Never read a James Patterson. I'll put it on the list after the Discworlds! It is quite a lot. If I'm lucky I'll get through them by Christmas...2020 ;)

I just finished Sarafina's book and have no idea what to start next :/
Have soooo many books to consider.

Justin, sometimes it's okay to give up. Lol.

Donna, typical bookworm problems. This is why I do reading challenges so I don't have to think about what to read next. :D

I really liked Sarafina's book, Donna!

I started Rewan's book "Fallen on Good Times" Really enjoying.

M.L. Crum (April71) | 6 comments Just finished Becoming Calder which I really enjoyed. I went onto the second book in the series and didn't find the same pull as I did in the first one, but all in all, it was still very good writing. I just really enjoyed the forbidden young love in the first one.

I know but it's one of those times where he read my book and I'm reading his. Not because we agreed it just sort of happened that way. I'd hate to give up on someone's book who read mine, out of a respectful sort of deal not by obligation. I'll give it one more try, in the mean time I got me some new ones to read, short reads that should be really good :)

Yeah, that's a good idea. I think you need to find the "right mood" so you can finish the book. :p

I am doing a reread of Fragile Things: Short Fictions and Wonders Fragile Things Short Fictions and Wonders by Neil Gaiman . First time I read this I was still in high school and so I currently have nostalgic feels. My favorite short story in this collection is Harlequin Valentine.

I'm more than halfway through Mistborn: The Final Empire Mistborn The Final Empire (Mistborn, #1) by Brandon Sanderson . So good! But I'm not crazy over epic fantasy novels, so I'm struggling with it.

Sarah, I just finished Looking for Alaska and it was good but it did not bring the waterworks for me like The Fault in Our Stars did.

Hate when that happens, yet you feel compelled to finish it :/

Joseph DiFrancesco | 47 comments Trying to read more classics - because I think I should. Guess I'm a modern guy when it comes to literature. Wish I could rip through them like you guys. I can never keep up with this gang.

Me too Joe! I'm hoping to read at least one classic book every month.

I took on
Fyodor Dostoyevsky

The Brothers Karamazov
a while back...took me a month and then some to finish. Was a monster of a book. Worth it though :)

We're professional readers here. O.k. not really. Truth is most if us are introverts and being anti social in real life just gives us more time for reading.
*LOL! Couldn't even say that with a straight face*

Kat...my daughters gave me
The Divine Comedy The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri
about a year ago. Started it but have yet to finish. Its very dark and beautiful :)

Maria | 712 comments @Donna, I was gonna agree with you. I am an introvert and prefer to stay home & read. : p


message 144: by Joseph (new)

Joseph DiFrancesco | 47 comments I do my worst reading at home. I get too distracted. Better for me to read at a coffee house or even a bar. Hey, at least I'm getting out of the house.


message 145: by Donna (new)

LOL...Maria my love :)
Joe...I can see how that would work. Oddly so, but yes.

It's in three parts (roll r's for effect :)...

Keep getting distracted and haven't been able to continue.
