[Sera]

I started 1Q84 last night. It's very interesting thus far.

[Betsy]

I've been listening to for my June book group. Really liking it so far. I know lots of people here read it, so I'm looking forward to finishing it and then going back through all the comments here.

I was given an advanced copy of as a gift & I am starting it...

I hope that you enjoy it, Betsy.

Started by Brene Brown on audio. Good content so far, but I think the reader is the same one from the book about North Korea that neither Sera nor I liked. This is sort of a cross between a self-help and a leadership/management book. It was recommended by a woman I took a public speaking workshop from.

Looks interesting, Betsy. I hope that you enjoy it. I can still hear the reader's voice in my head :)

[Sera]

I started Her: A Memoir on audio. The author is reading her own work, which I often don't like, but so far, it is working here. The story is incredibly powerful and personal, which is why it makes sense for the author to tell it.

[Cindy]

Decided it was time to re-read The Great Gatsby before seeing the new movie. Haven't read it since high school (long ago), so this should be almost like a new read.

[LynnB]

I'm reading . This one's been sitting on my shelves a while, but I had recently read his The Sandcastle Girls and decided I needed get this one read too. I do like his writing.

That's what I just did, Cindy. I hated Gatsby when I had read it college. This time around, I gave it 4 stars.

I've been adding some of his books to my collection when I see them for sale cheap. I do intend to read him at some point, especially since you and a number of others have such praise for his writing.

So far, I haven't read anything of Bohjalian's that I haven't liked. He doe an excellent job.

I agree. I did not remember it fondly. But this time I agree ... a four-star read.

Chris Bohjalian is one of my favorite authors, he has a new book coming out in the next couple of weeks...

Just looked it up... . The (few) ratings are very good so far and the summary sounds interesting. Think I'll be looking for it.

I just started, after all this time, Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides. On audio just began The Execution of Noa P. Singleton by Elizabeth Silver.

[Miriam]

I just started Milk and Honey by Faye Kellerman. I have read some of her other books and enjoyed her writing and stories. They take place in Los Angeles where I live and are Jewish themed.

I just picked up the Noa P. book on audio from the library. I probably won't be able to start it until the following week, however, while I finish up , which is fabulous by the way.

Well, I've never seen anyone post a cookbook here, but I'm so excited about my latest purchase, I had to tell someone. The ice cream freezer came out a couple weeks ago and my first batch was Rocky Road. Good enough. For my second batch I went looking online. I had heard about Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream and her unique flavors and technique. The Savannah Buttermint was to DIE for. I'd thought I had found enough of her recipes online to save me from buying the book, but when in the bookstore today I took a look. Oh my, plenty more "must have" recipes and the book is only $2.51 for the Kindle version. The book is beautiful with photos of each step and every flavor. If you make ice cream at home, this one is for you.

Please post away - all books are welcome here :)

As a side note, the cookbook does look great, and the price is awesome, too.

Yes, it's a solid read so far. It's my first Atkinson book, and I am enjoying her writing style. I've been trying for years to get to her series, but can never seem to fit it in. I need to keep trying.

I'm not surprised since Hill comes up with some strange things in his books - ha ha ha.

I've seen the Galileo book, Lynn. Keep me posted as I may want to pick it up at some point.

I just started reading Tell No One by Harlan Coben. I saw the movie years ago and I barely remember it. I know the book will be better.Tell No One

[Teresa]

I just started "Transatlantic" by Colum McCann and am totally caught up in it already. It made me google Frederick Douglas to do some fact checking.
