BLynne I finished Odd Thomas. I enjoyed the book. I'm finishing up Where are you really from? by Jo Amidon. Think I will have it done by the end of the week.


Olivia "So many books--so little time."" | 140 comments Currently I'm reading Noir by K.W. Jeter. It's sci-fi set in a future Los Angeles but has a lot of thrillerish aspects. The protagonist is trying to solve a murder. So far it has been very good.

Claire Dobson Currently reading Brooklyn by Colm Tóibín and am thoroughly enjoying it.

BLynne I started one of the Supernatural books called Nevermore. The kids I work with are reading this series and I like to use metaphors in our work together so I need to get caught up on the books. I'm fairly caught up with the TV show.

message 168: by R.L. (new)

R.L. Mathewson (rlmathewson) | 9 comments This week I am reading a book on content management. The New Rules of Marketing by David Meerman Scott. It's actually a really good book, great flow and advice. I'm only on page 70 and I've learned a great deal.

I pretty much read anything, but my main genre is romance. I love anything with humor, but I've been in a book slump for the past year so right now I am devouring books on business, history, etc. until I find something to get me back into the mix of things.


message 169: by BLynne (new)

BLynne I finished Adam by Ted Dekker. It was a good book and I think I will be reading more of his stuff. I also finished reading The Waste Land and other Poems by T.S. Eliot. I always find myself returning to his work and finding so much meaning in his poems.

BLynne I found that I was missing the characters from the Dragon Lance world so I am currently reading "Kindred Spirits" by Mark Anthony and Ellen Porath. Figured it would be a nice change.

Tammy Just finished Baby Doll Baby Doll by Hollie Overton a giveaway that I found myself glued to.


message 188: by N.B. (new)

N.B. Dixon I'm reading the Wars of the Roses series by Conn Igguldenn. He's a fantastic story-teller, and he brings this period of history to life in a way no history teacher ever managed to do. Has anyone else read this series?


message 189: by BLynne (new)

BLynne I just finished Kindred Spirits, which is a Dragonlance book. I forgot how much I miss reading this series and how much I really like the original characters. This book focused specifically on Tanis the Half-Elf and the first time he meets Flint the Dwarf. I think I'm going to have to return to reading more books in this series. Maybe even re-read a few of the other ones.

Cyl (alohacyl) | 25 comments I am reading James Patterson's Zoo 2 and I find it just as captivating as the book "Zoo" which came out by him. I like these novellas/book shots. They move quickly but stay on track with the story.


message 195: by BLynne (new)

BLynne I'm currently reading Vittorio by Anne Rice. It's been a long time since I have read any of her books. Felt that it would be a good time for one.
