I started reading The Dig last night but I was too tired to absorb anything so I will restart it today.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Oh dear, I had to abort Birdsong: A Novel of Love and War at 24 pages. The writing was just too leaden for me. But it did get rave reviews, lots and lots of raves, from respected organs like the NYTBR and the New Yorker, so maybe it's just me.

I'll just watch it on Mastahpiece Theatah.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Yes!

I just started My Life with the Great Pianists. Which is not about respected organs, but respected pianos.

[Alias Reader]

The Road to Mecca~Athol Fugard

I am seeing the play in a few weeks and thought I might read it first.

Unless those respected pianists also are organists. Anyone have a pipe organ I can play?

[Michele]

almost finished: "Celebrity in Death" by J.D. Robb.

[janine]

The Bonfire of the Vanities

[Sarah]

The Orphan Master's Son. My friend John McManus recommended it so wholeheartedly I've decided to give it a chance.

[Courtney]

I liked the first one, second one was just eh and I am only on page 10 of the last one. Let me know what you think. Happy reading.

I would probably agree. I did not like the second one ending the way it did and not being able to pick up number 3 right away.

[Fiona (Titch)]

I am also reading Resurrection, a YA Paranormal Romance - A.M. Hargrove

[Fiona (Titch)]

Just finished Resurrection, a YA Paranormal Romance - A.M. Hargrove

[Janice]

I'm going to start Sarah's Key when I get home from work tonight. My real life book club is discussing it on March 15th, and I've signed up online for a Buddy Read. There are about 5 of us that are going to read and discuss it together.

[Fiona (Titch)]

Listening to He Sees You When You're Sleeping - Mary Higgins Clark

[Fiona (Titch)]

Just finished listening to He Sees You When You're Sleeping - Mary Higgins Clark

[Janice]

Did you like it Barb?

Barb wrote: "Janice wrote: "Did you like it Barb?"

I'm still not sure ... it pissed me off in some ways, and was a compelling story in others."

Sounds like it will be a great book for discussion.

[Fiona (Titch)]

Listening to Undead - Kirsty McKay

[Fiona (Titch)]

Finished Undead - Kirsty McKay.

[Fiona (Titch)]

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

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

The Key to Rebecca

[Fiona (Titch)]

This morning I started Shelley The Lifeboat Labrador - John Periam

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I finished Chopin, the Reluctant Romantic. It made me cry...Chopin's relationship with George Sand ended badly, he never returned to his native land, Poland, he went years without seeing his mother (or father, who predeceased him), and his last years were made miserable by tuberculosis before he died at age 39. I wanted to give him a hug.

[Janice]

I finished The Snowman on audio and will start The Bells next.

[Sally, la reina]

Daw. That's why I like Chopin's sad music so much.

[AmyK]

i have that on my to read list, but i got sidetracked by a series.

I'm currently on "A Storm of Swords" also Amy, about half way through, and it seems to be holding up well. It is long though, so it seems I've been reading it awhile.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

I haven't seen it. I don't know if I could. If they take any liberties whatsoever with historical facts, I get peeved. I'm not sure I want Hugh Grant forever associated in my mind with Chopin, either.

[AmyK]

Charly wrote: "Amy which of the two are you thinking of reading? I have reviewed both. Two very different directions, but interesting reads."

Oh, I suppose that would have helped :) 1491: New Revelations of the Americas Before Columbus was the one i was referring to. I have heard good things about it.

I agree it's long, but so far it doesn't FEEL like it's going to take forever. I really liked Game of Thrones, but had a hard time getting through Clash of Kings, and was a bit apprehensive with this one, but I am enjoying it. I'm almost halfway through as well.

[Lobstergirl, el principe]

Burmese Days.

[Sarah]

I just read the horrifying, fascinating The Orphan Master's Son.

[evie]

I started True History of the Kelly Gang

[Janice]

I'm starting Women, Food, and God: An Unexpected Path to Almost Everything.

[Youndyc]

I'm reading Pulphead

[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.

[Sally, la reina]

I am almost done with A Toss of the Lemon and am starting Fifty Shades of Grey and Tiger's Curse. I'm gearing up to teach more Faherenheit 451, Lord of the Flies and Romeo and Juliet this spring. So I'd better reread all those as well.

[~Geektastic~]

Working my way through a re-read of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, on The Vampire Lestatat the moment. Also just starting Sixty Million Frenchmen Can't Be Wrong: Why We Love France, But Not the French. Interesting stuff (and I got it super cheap for my Kindle).

[Sally, la reina]

I love the Vampire Chronicles. Can't help it, but I do.
