   as a buddy read in one of the groups I moderate. It has been on my TBR for a long time, and I really like it so far. I was reading it in trade paperback, but the version I have is FREAKISHLY heavy, so I switched to ePub!

     I just finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I didn't like the violence against women and animals - this is a big reason why I like the comfort of cozies - but the writing was terrific. Not sure if I'll see the movie or not...

     I haven't read many cozies at all lately. Over the holidays I followed up Anansi Boys with Neverwhere to catch up on my Neil Gaiman reading. Only one left on that TBR pile. I like his writing, but some of these books take a bit to get into.

I like his writing, but some of these books take a bit to get into.In keeping with the fantasy genre, I then read Changes which had such a jaw dropping conclusion I had to borrow Ghost Story from the library. I mean, you can't just END a book that way! I am really enjoying Ghost Story and I'm sad I'll have to wait a bit for the next book.

 Changes was definitely full of changes. I loved it. Ghost story is good too, but not quite as packed full of action and adrenaline as the other books in the series. Not done yet, but I'm pretty sure I know what's going to happen.

 Started Paradise Valley by W. Dale Cramer. I thought it would a typical Amish story but this one is about a family who relocate to Mexico from Ohio so they can raise their children without interference from the State government.

      I need to hit the book store so I dug through some books I bought at the last sale the library had of used books. I'm reading an oldie (and so far, a goodie) that's more romantic suspense, Wicked Widow.
    
  
  
   I love mysteries and thrillers and classics but lately I'm reading lighter books:

Both nice and it's hard to decide which one to read.
 I am about 1/3 of the way into On Berryhill Road which was a free Kindle download. So far it's a nice story and I can see where it going but it's interesting enough that I want to know how the story goes. Maybe I'll be surprised.

     Im reading Love Finds You in Snowball, Arkansas by Sandra D. Bricker
      Im reading Love Finds You in Snowball, Arkansas by Sandra D. Brickerand Forbidden Falls by Robyn Carr, both are very interesting stories!
 It seems that I am amassing all the mystery reads that I can possibly read right now, I like to mix it up and just read travel books, and regular fiction books now and again. See what this group has started! LOL

     Started The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society last night. I have read almost half the book and I'm also reading two other books at the same time so you can tell I have fallen in love with this book. It reminds me (the way it's written) of Daddy Long Legs and my favorite, 84, Charing Cross Road. Makes me want to read both of these again.

      Karen: I read "Guernsey" a few years ago, when it first came out, and loved it. It's one of those books that sticks with you.

 I finished the last batch of simultaneous books yesterday and have started a slew more (one in the car, one on the iPod to listen to while getting ready for work, a few on the kindle, and one "real" book to read and donate to clear shelf space.
