Just finished reading Maggie Helwig's Girls Fall Down, a lyrical and disturbing novel that takes you through some of my favourite neighbourhoods in Toronto, cutting in and out of their denizens and homeless populations... My full review can be read at www.the-reading-list.com

[Fiona (Titch)]

Finished Undead - Kirsty McKay.

[Christine]

I'm reading The Tiger's Wife by Téa Obreht. It was one of the selections for the March Book Addicts group here on Goodreads. I'm not very far, but I find it captivating. I like the way she writes.

[Fiona (Titch)]

Read and finished My Husband's on Facebook! March Edition - Richard Parise

[Fiona (Titch)]

This morning I started Shelley The Lifeboat Labrador - John Periam

[LaVerne]

Almost finished
The reason is, the author is a fellow RWNZ (romance writers of New Zealand) member and I love to support my writing buddies. (It's very good too in case you're wondering!)

[Barbara]

I'm reading A Plague of Secrets by John Lescroart, a Dismas Hardy mystery.

[Bill]

I'm reading A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess and also The Virgin And The Gypsy by D.H. Lawrence.

can't go wrong with the Dismas Hardy books!! Love the Abe Glitzky character too!

[Andy]

I am currently reading Shatter The Bones by Stuart Macbride the last book I read was Birthdays For The Dead by the same author which I gave 5 stars so thought I would read one of his earlier works.

This is part of a series Andy x

[Stuart]

I am reading Scary Mary by S.A. Hunter, as I wanted a light read.

[Liz]

Reading Sister: A Novel by Rosamund Lupton. Two people said they have read it and loved it and that I just HAD to read it. So I am.

[Mikela]

I'm currently reading The Nice and the Good. I just love the way Iris Murdoch writes.

Abe is such a complex character- very real!

[Robert]

Right now, I am reading "Room" by Emma Donoghue. Very much enjoying it. Such an innocent writing style for the author although it is told from the POV of a 5 year old little boy so that helps.

[Stacia]

Stone Junction by Jim Dodge (seems to be a mix of Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas, On the Road, and an R-rated Harry Potter) and a really cool visual book called The Scrapbook of Frankie Pratt (the entire book looks like a scrapbook done in the 1920s) by Caroline Preston

[Werner]

As of yesterday, I started Point of Honour, by Madeleine E. Robins (who's an American author, despite the British spelling in the title). I'm giving it some priority in my vast to-read list, because I only have it on loan, from my oldest daughter who'd read it earlier and liked it. (I'd given it to her for Christmas back in 2009; but she knew I wanted to read it too, so she brought it over from Australia when she was here last year.)

[Mikela]

Almost finished with Dance Dance Dance and loving it. I'm a huge fan of Murakami's work and am dreading the time when I've read all his books.

[Susan]

I am reading A Voyage Long and Strange: Rediscovering the New World by Tony Horwitz in which he follows the paths of all the different people who "discovered" America. I am really enjoying it. His writing is both informative and amusing. I just finished Nothing Daunted: The Unexpected Education of Two Society Girls in the West by Dorothy Wickenden, an okay book about the author's grandmother and a friend going out west to teach school in 1916. My next book will be Travels With Myself and Another by Martha Gellhorn, the war correspondent third wife of Hemingway (he is the "Another"). So, I guess I am in a nonfiction true travel frame of mind.

[C.p.]

At the moment I'm reading The Delphi Chronicle, Book 1-The Manuscript by Russell Blake for week 11 of the 52 Books in 52 Weeks challenge. I usually read constantly and now I have an excuse. lol

[Anne (Booklady)]

Currently, I am reading Carry the One by GR author Carol Anshaw for one of the tasks in The Seasonal Reading Challenge Group.
My next books will probably be American Gods and The Ice Princess again for the SRC.

I love Murakami too, although I have a long way too go until I've read all his works.
So far I would have to say my favourite of his is Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World.

Started reading The Lost World on a recommendation from a friends. Good read. :)

I love Conan Doyle (based on Sherlock Holmes).

I thought Lost World was good, but not great, but I'm looking forward too reading more of the professor Challenger stories.

[Scott]

Ooh, I didn't realize it was a series. Time to go do some Kindle shopping.

Superb silent version of The Lost World- believe Willis O'Brien who did King Kong did the stop-motion for that film as well

[Barbara]

I'm reading In the Bleak Midwinter by Julia Spencer-Fleming, the first book in the Claire Fergusson and Russ Van Alstyne series (though not the first I've read in the series).

[Kristen]

I'm reading Gone With the Wind because I never have and I should! Plus I want to sink my teeth into another long and cuddly read before spring arrives and there are too many distractions.

[Fiona (Titch)]

I finished Shelley The Lifeboat Labrador - John Periam. I am listening to The Ballroom On Magnolia Street - Sharon Owens and reading Broken City - D.D. Chant.

[Bill]

I'm half way through By the Time You Read This by Giles Blunt and am about to start The Rebel Angels by Robertson Davies. Just finished A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess and I'm glad that I finally read it. An interesting concept.

[KOMET]

I'm now reading The Barley Hole Chronicles: From Hell to Hamburg by Harry Leslie Smith, a Goodreads member (89 years young) and Second World War veteran of the Royal Air Force (RAF). It is his memoir of his hardscrabble upbringing in Northern England in the interwar years, his wartime experiences, and later as part of the British occupation forces in immediate post-war Germany.

[Mikela]

I'm now reading 1q84 by Murakami. Simply adore his imagination, style and characters.

[Anne (Booklady)]

I just started The Ice Princess. I'm finding great international Thriller Authors here on GR.
