[Theresa]

Before I started I attempted (for the 3rd time) to read . I once again failed. I have waved the white flag and posted the only review I could because I had been given a copy for a review. Never really had a DNF like this. Ah well.

Leslie, thanks for the recommendation. I was beginning to get bored by the writing and slow pace in The Trial :(

[Susan]

Im reading The Things We Knew and can not put it down.

[Mary]

Hi everyone. I have been absent for a while on Goodreads. I have been very busy getting my third manuscript ready. I am halfway there and wanted to take a minute to let everyone know that my second book, Possession, will be released soon. I do not have the exact date yet, it is in printing. Will let everyone know the exact date. This book is the second of my Discover Trilogy. The first, A Temptation, was released last September.
I have to brag on the cover that my team came up with for Possession. I love it. Even more than A Temptation.
Any way, I just wanted to drop in and see how, and what everyone was doing. Have a great day!

[J.R.]

Reading Simon Winchester's 'Atlantic,' Tim Hallinan's 'King Maybe' and Thomas Hollydays 'Slave Graves.'

[Logan]

I am currently working on Benjamin Wallace's "Dumb White Husband versus Zombies" (it's actually pretty funny) and Greg Iles' "The Quiet Game" (a book about a unsolved crime in Natchez, Mississippi). If they both keep up the way they have been going, they won't disappoint anyone looking for these types of books.

[Kristina]

Hi everyone!

I'm so mad at myself because I don't read as much as I used to. Since I've started writing, I prefer to do that. If you are looking for a new summer reading I'd like to invite you to check my novel out:

But the book I'm reading now is "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn. Although I have to say it hasn't been that exciting.

[Pam]

Just read number 12 in the Bryant and May crime series -The Burning Man .

Lesl..."
The Castle may well leave you screaming in frustration, but that is the whole point of the story!

[Alice]

I finished The Trial - not impressed. I appreciate that it's a bleak parody of legal justice, but I was just not moved by the characters or the plot. I like The Metamorphosis much better.

My short review

I'm reading Watership Down for a change of mood :)

[Leslie]

People raved about Watership Down when it came out, but I remember not being that impressed. Perhaps I should give it another go?

[Katheryn]

Just finished 31 Treats and a Marriage and gave it four stars. Here is my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show....

[Alice]

Leslie, I'm enjoying Watership Down so far. I guess you'd have to let the child in you take over while reading it. I adored The Wind in the Willows, which also has animals as characters.

[Pam]

Read three of the Agatha Raisin crime series - book 2 The Vicious Vet , book 17 - Love, Lies and Liquor and book 22 As the Pig Turns

[Victoria]

Alice wrote: "Leslie, I'm enjoying Watership Down so far. I guess you'd have to let the child in you take over while reading it. I adored The Wind in the Willows, which also has animals ..."

Both excellent books!

[Pam]

Read number 6 in the Agatha Raisin series - The Terrible Tourist .

[Katheryn]

Here is my review of A Machine Made This Book: Ten Sketches of Computer Science by John Whitington: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[CD {Boulder Blvd}]

I just finished Angels Burning which I didn't really enjoy and I have just started Lie in Plain Sight .

[Pam]

Read number 12 in the Agatha Raisin series - The Day the Floods Came

[K.R.]

I realize I'm a little late to this thread... But, I just finished reading a few different novels. The list is:

Raven's Peak by Lincoln Cole
Killer With Three Heads by J.L. Hill
Crushing on the Rock Star by Darci Doll
Blood Magic by Ann Atkins
All Roads Lead To Terror: Coming of age in a post apocalyptic world by Richard Schiver

Also, The Reaping by Richard Schiver which is the second novel in the series. Pretty amazing books! I did reviews on all of them, too. Check them out.

[Pam]

Read number 23 in the Agatha Raisin series, Hiss and Hers.

[Grace]

I am doing research for my novel "Einstein's Compass: a novel of what if?
Reading Jesus in Kashmir The Lost Tomb by Suzanne Olsson
found an interesting idea about E=mc2 that I may use.

Just finished reading "Freedom" by Ken Follett. I have an interest in Scottish/American history. A good read and it comes in audible.

[Leslie]

Wind in the Willows is fun, Watership Down I found a little too serious for its own good! As said, perhaps I need to give it another try sometime.

[Ryan]

Just finished THE LAST ONE by Alexandra Oliva and it was a total blast. Not a genre I'd ever expect to read, but the hook was irresistible and the story SO well written.

[Jen Pattison]

I'm just about to start The Forest and the Farm.

[Pam]

Finished the Bryant and May short story collection - London's Glory

[Rita]

The Sound of Thunder https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7... by Wilbur Smith, having just finished the first book in the series, When the Lion Feeds. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... Incredible saga - unfortunately I read Monsoon first, but it didn't detract as each book is also a stand-alone. Thoroughly recommended.

I'm halfway through Watership Down and I feel exactly the same way as you do about the two books. There are some hilarious scenes in The Wind in the Willows that are unforgettable :)

[Pam]

Finished a collection from the Golden Age of science fiction, The Best of Murray Leinster.

[Pam]

Read A Book Dragon by Donn Kushner.

[Pam]

Read Revenge in the Cotswolds by Rebecca Tope .

[Theresa]

I have just finished Changes by Jim Butcher. It was one of the best I think.

[[deleted user]]

Reading Stephen King's On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft. Terrific.

[Jen Pattison]

I've finished The Forest and the Farm, I absolutely loved it. It's one of the most engaging books I've read in a long time and I want to reread it. With all the awful things happening in the world, it was a refuge to escape into a lost in the mists of time world.

[J.]

I just finished Shadow Prowler and found it both unique and interesting though didn't realize it is book one in a series until I finished it and, well, the story didn't really end.
