Starting the book club book...it's pretty sad but definately interesting.They just tear your heart out right away!
I'm kinda tired of books in a series,though a trilogy is acceptable. All the time I look at a book title/synopsis i click and then...ugh...another long series.
I read Weaving Destiny this weekend the second book in the Soulkeepers series. I got the first book as a freebie from Pixel of Ink and I liked it ok for a free book and decided to purchase the second and third books. Short and easy reads, interesting take on angels and fallen angels. I like the way the author doesn't beat around the bush with the characters. I'm starting Return to Eden tonight, at least I don't have to wait months for the next book to come out. Promise I'm going to read a grown up book next LOL.
Finished The Unquiet Bones and am starting the second one, A Corpse at St Andrews Chapel. Love historical fiction...also starting 11/22/63, got it from the library and only have until June 23 to finish, so I'll be reading that one first.
Last night I finished Fifty Shades of Grey - E.L. James. It was an intense books. It had me crying, laughing and even cringing at the events of Mr Grey and Ms Steele. Now I am going to read Fifty Shades Darker - E.L. James.

I know they are pretty long but it's OK since they are good. I jsut wish I could move a little faster!
After I finish Outlander I am going to start a book that someone at work let me borrow Time and Again

Finished Return to Eden liked it lots! Thank goodness the world was saved, it would be such a bummer if it wasn't. Reading about angels and demons not in a gross way just a group of young kids saving the world way still gets a little heavy so I'm going to read something that is suppose to be laugh out loud (LOL for you cool people) funny. Oh yeah the book is called Ketchup is a Vegetable: And Other Lies Moms Tell Themselves.
Read Divergent this last week now I think I am going to try A Game of Thrones. While I wait on Insurgent at the library :)
I have finished Fifty Shades Darker - E.L. James. Now I am going to read Fifty Shades Freed - E.L. James.
I finished the next in my series of not at all like the movie booksMake Room! Make Room! and am continuing to sporadically read The Mysterious Island.It's quite slow and the longest 494 pages I've ever read,interesting enough to keep going.
I'm also starting on The Snow Child

Finished
, loved it. Cried at the ending. Really, really long, probably could have been a bit shorter, but I like his writing so I am fine with the length. I have been trying to get through
for a while now, just can't get into it. Might be because I watched the series on HBO first so I know what happens. I think I am going to just skip to book two and see how that goes. My husband has read through book 4 and he really likes it.

I started to watch the Game of Thrones series but stopped because books are always better so I am going to read the series first then begin again. Hopefully I can catch up!

I have finished Fifty Shades Freed - E.L. James. Now I am reading Quenched, A Paranormal Romance - Z.L. Arkadie.
This morning I finished Quenched - Z.L. Arkadie. Now I am going to carry on the saga with The Fifth Sister, A Paranormal Romance - Z.L. Arkadie.
Finished Darkfever and Bloodfever two of the five fever books. I like the main character and supporting cast and plan on reading the entire series. Not a vampire story, I know right!

My husband also read the books and I just pump him for info when we watch the TV series :-)
Just finished The Fifth Sister, A Paranormal Romance - Z.L. Arkadie. Now I am about to start Enchantment - Charlotte Abel.
I've finished Enchantment - Charlotte Abel. Now I think I will read This Devil's Dice - Jackson Spence.
Decided to have a bit of fun reading Fifty Shades of Garbage - Allie Beck. See if this is any fun lol x
There she sat, the coffee cup half full and likely cold, gripping that damn book again. Joe had come home from work for three days in a row now this week to find Marcia sitting on the couch, legs curled under her, the dim light of the end table lamp casting a glow on her enthralled form, reading a book with a necktie on it.

Finished Fifty Shades of Garbage - Allie Beck. In my opinion, was funny when you saw some parts like Fifty Shades of Grey but, near the end was boring.
Couldn't get into This Devil's Dice - Jackson Spence. So I decided to read my dad's friend's 2 books which are Three's Company & Mid Life Crisis - William Mwendwa.
I am about 64% done with Time and Again and have to put it on the back burner because I fonally got my bookclub read The Art of Fielding and the meeting is next week!
At the rate I have been reading this should not be an easy task!

Over the past couple of days I have read and finished Mid Life Crisis - William Mwendwa and Three's Company - William Mwendwa. Now I am reading Taken - Charlotte Abel.
This evening I finished Taken - Charlotte Abel and have to wait til September to read the finale and find out what happens next lol. Now I am reading Ignite - Z.L. Arkadie which is book 5 of the series.
Picked up A Game of Thrones then put it down wasn't feeling it! Now I picked up the second Outlander book Dragonfly in Amber and so far I am confused! lol I guess I will understand soon enough....
Yesterday I finished My Husband's On Facebook! Unpublished - Richard Parise. Last night I started My Husband's On Facebook! - Unpublished -Richard Parise.
Today I have read and finished My Husband's On Facebook! - Unpublished & My Husband's On Facebook! Unpublished - Richard Parise. Now I am reading Guilty Wives - James Patterson.
Well I can't even remember the last time I wrote something! It has been and continues to be a crazy summer. I did find some time to read The Fever Series by Karen Moning. The story takes place in Dublin Ireland where a young girl is murdered. Her sister McKayla (Mac) goes to Dublin to try and find her murderer. Dublin is a real place but nothing else about this story is real, there are faries (fae) good and bad that are creating lets just say trouble. This is a great series and if you like urban fantasy you should go for it! I need to read your blogs and see what you all are reading. Hope your summer is going well.
I have been away this week so I rarely read onor have I went on the internet.
I have the first book by Karen Morning. I always hear great things about it. One day I promise I will get to it!
I am still working on the Outlander series and these books are FAT so it will take a very VERY long time lol
Hope all is well!!!!

Finishing up on ymy lateset book and will soon start my next In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin in which I am not very excited about but have to get it started for my next book club reading!
Dawn of Avalon is the book I am reading. I finished ANNA KARENINA, wrote a review and James commented on the review. So, my reviews are being posted. For the new members, a lightning storm fried all of my web content. I am good in Goodreads Apps. Nothing lost there. I did have to rejoin Random Thoughts again today. Terri, my man just ain't in the mood to fix my computer until he fixes his own.You all are weary of hearing my sad tale, but hearing from you is the only way I know that my past may be gone but I still have a future with my group and my friends! Thank you all so much!
So I have to admit as soon as I finished the sample of Physick book(IBooks is very useful for this)I really wasn't interested enough to get it till today. Then I found the copy in the library closest to me either got broke beyond repair or was thrown out or something. I don't care enough to wait or go elsewhere...sigh...oh well. It's just the back and forth time thing I just had in Advent by James Treadwell,while it's not perfect I feel he does it in a more interesting way. This one wasn't intellectual boring,it was just a little boring,interesting enough to get me through the sample.Back to Jonathan Strange and Mister Norell soon...sample was very good!
I've given up on Lifeblood - J. Przymus for now and now reading The Ghost Rock Cafe - Chinle Miller.
This morning I finished The Ghost Rock Cafe - Chinle Miller. Now I think I will read Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins.
