OOOO, Jim Butcher. I love that man. I keep telling people that he should pay me a finders fee, I have talked so many people into reading his book. Can't wait for the new one, Changes, which comes out in April.

Linda Miller | 5 comments My name is Linda Miller. I am a 48-year-old stay at home wife and mother who can be found with her nose in a book most of the time. I am planning to read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Labyrinth, The Thirteenth Tale, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, and any others that I can get my hands on from my bookshelf.

Great reading ahead for you, Linda. I've read all the books you mentioned except Labyrinth. Maybe I should check it out!

Meghan Oh, what great timing! I'm currently reading The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson.

And you (all) have some great picks on your lists!


message 60: by Lynne (new)

Lynne (lmsindel) Wow, I read 4 books from this shelf this month (plus one for another club). That is a lot for me. Must have been a good shelf. I look forward to "adventure" too.


Lyn (Readinghearts) (lsmeadows) | 2895 comments Mod
I read 5 - which is really amazing!! It turned out that a couple of books I was reading for other groups fit the shelf. I have six picked out for adventure, so maybe I can do as well with it.


message 62: by Lynne (new)

Lynne (lmsindel) I'm hoping to as well, have you seen my list? :)

I just dont know how you guys get through so many books! I must be a slow reader. As well as a time poor mother of 4 who works full time. Im so envious, I wish I could read more.

No wonder you can't read more. The only reason I read so many books this month is that I am a teacher and had 3 weeks off. You will see that the rest of my months will not be nearly so high. In school, when I was a child, I read so slowly that it made me feel dumb. Oh well, you and I just have more time to savor a good book than those who can rip through them in a day! :)


message 66: by Karen (new)

Karen (karenofthebookworm) Having read all the other ones on my list for this month am now going to read Storm Front


message 67: by Tara (new)

Tara | 742 comments Finished my whole list! I think that is a first for me!


Lyn (Readinghearts) (lsmeadows) | 2895 comments Mod
Wow, great job Tara!!


message 69: by Karen (new)

Karen (karenofthebookworm) Finished storm front,really enjoyed it but not sure that sitting up all night to finish it was a good idea


Lyn (Readinghearts) (lsmeadows) | 2895 comments Mod
Good book, though, huh Karen.


message 71: by Karen (new)

Karen (karenofthebookworm) It was excellent,think I'll wait a few days before starting the next one or I'll be doing the same again


message 72: by Karen (new)

Karen (karenofthebookworm) I caved,started reading Fool Moon last night. I was going to try and read one off my mini game list but Harry was demanding that I spend some time with him so I gave in
