I just started Yes Chef
on audio. One of the rare occasions where I am enjoying the author's reading of the book.
I started reading Ballerina: Sex, Scandal, and Suffering Behind the Symbol of Perfection
last night. It's very interesting so far.

I see this one getting much good press. It looked like a romance to me, which is why I have avoided it.
I started reading Fall of the Giants today. So far, it feels like it will be a fun, historical fiction read. Has anyone else read this series?

Thanks....I never even gave it a thought that it was a romance LOL, so far I am enjoying it.....
Meaning, I didn't know it was marketed that way LOL

I just started it myself today. All my sisters (3) have either read 1 or 2.
I recently read Half of a Yellow Sun for a book club discussion that will be next week. Good introduction for a country I didn't know much about, I thought there was a good combination of personal story and national history.

I finished & while there is a love aspect, it is not a romance novel...
Still working on O Pioneers! and had started
, but have put them temporarily down to complete
for my f2f bookclub on Wednesday night (ack! have to read it fast!)
Started
. I've had as many as 6 rescue dogs at one time and we're currently at 4, but we've got nothing on this guy.
Currently I'm reading an ARC,
and also reading
and
. On the side to balance out all the heavy reading, I've started a cozy mystery,
.
I'm now reading Chris Bohjalian's
which is turning out to be different than I had expected. It's an intense book in many ways, following several people during the Turkish genocide of the Armenians in about 1915. So far I think it's going to be a 4 or 5 star read for me.I've also just started
by Jo Nesbø which is part of a series (#6 or 7, I believe).

I just got back from the most amazing vacation - It was a package tour of America's Canyonlands - Sedona, Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, Bryce Canyon,Zion Nat'l park,and Las Vegas(ok, Vegas is not one of the canyonlands, but only close city w/airport). To keep trip vibe going, I'm reading

Linda, I'm reading The Dinner too. I'm about 60% through, I'd guess (no page numbers in the 3M ereader app). I'm not that into it, but I'm going to force myself to plow through the rest. I really do need to see what happens next with the plot.

It's also been compared to
which I really liked.
