Orphan Train was so worth the wait. I read for four hours straight. Still have another 75 pages which I hope to finish tomorrow morning.

How are you liking that? I read maybe 30% (read a story a day through the month of October last year)...

Great adventure story! I "reread" it recently by listening to it on audiobook.

I've been reading, well listening to, Life on the Mississippi, , memoirs by Mark Twain. I just started in hardcover Austerlitz, , which I am not sure I like...

Just starting From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler . This is for a reading challenge for a book from my childhood, I think I was about 11 when I first read it and loved it.

An excellent choice! I reread that one a couple years ago, and there were a lot of parts I remembered, but others I had forgotten. Loved it as much as I did in school!

That cover looks familiar but I can't remember if I read it. Hmmm....

[Kirsten]

I started reading The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith yesterday.

[Karen M]

I finished Orphan Train which was my first 5 star for this year. I'm reading Hope You Guess My Name: A Thriller which, 25 pages in, seems almost like a cozy. I'll have to read more and then decide.

Oh that book sounds so beautiful, but I think it would make me cry. Is it very sad?

[Kirsten]

Sabrina - Not terribly. There are some sad bits. But it didn't make me cry. (And I'm really bad at crying.) I found it very interesting.

[Kirsten]

Just finished City of Bones by Cassandra Clare

[Karen M]

I'm read Three Lives but I'm not really into reading the last two days. Too much distraction with other things.

[Teresa]

I just started A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail by Bill Bryson on audiobook. I'm enjoying it so far.

In line to board the bus to the airport for a flight from Melbourne to San Francisco on New Year's Eve, I overheard several university students discussing this book. One of them even had the book and was looking at the map in the front. They were sure and certain that Kentucky was coastal, and from the mountaintops in Kentucky it was possible to see the Atlantic Ocean.

I seriously had to stop myself from laughing out loud.

I would have had to interrupt to corrupt them -- after I finished groaning and laughing, of course. ;-)

Is it a good reader, Kirsten? That was a very good Maisie Dobbs read.

[Kirsten]

Yes, @MaryJo. I really do like the narrator. It's been too long since I read the first book in this series.

[Kirsten]

I continued reading The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins last night.

Yes! Just finished the section with Sgt Cuff and loved it.

[Jamie]

I'm currently reading Em and The Big Hoom . Set in India, it's a quirky story about a family, the mother is bipolar. So far it's a quick read with humor added to a sad and difficult family life.

[Kirsten]

I continued reading MaddAddam by Margaret Atwood today.
