I love Poison Study!

I am reading The Mystery of Edwin Drood by Charles Dickens. I usually love Dickens, but for some reason this book isn't doing it for me.

I have also been reading In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower by Marcel Proust for what seems like forever. It is good and his writing is beautiful, but the book is just as dense as I had feared.

Just started Fargoer .

[Jex]

Finished which had some creepy and interesting short stories.

Also finished on audio which I've been working on for a long time. I really liked this book although I didn't like the cliffhanger ending. I understand there is a sequel, but with the length of the book it dragged on a little. I still gave it 4 stars and will definitely read the 2nd book. They did just travel back in time after all.

Just started Broken City .

[Amber]

I'm reading 'the knife of never letting go' by Patrick Ness and it's so good and creepy in a way you don't know what's going to happen next and there are so many plot twists. It's really good.

Just started His Allure, Her Passion .

[Robyn]

Not exactly what I was expecting but I am really enjoying it so far. This is my second book by Lisa See, she is becoming one of my favorites

[[deleted user]]

Just finished His Allure, Her Passion Free book for Review. A couples friendship grows into love with a few twists and turns. But I feel the book could of been took further. A good read.

Just started The Docks .

[Reading]

I am new to this group. I did an introduction post. This is my first book post. I currently reading Beautiful Darkness. It is the second book in the Beautiful Creatures sage. This book did start a little slow. Around chapter six it has started to pick up. This series has a different take on witches(casters) which I have not read before. I also like how this story is being told by a male. This is also rare to me. So far I am enjoying this series.

[Jennifer]

AAAAAAAARGH! All I have to say is thank the universe that Burke published another installment of his Robicheaux series before I read the one I just finished, The Glass Rainbow , because this one ended with a cliffhanger!

[Fiorela]

I am reading SHATTER ME by Taheren Mafi. I am curious in the development of the plot or maybe I just want to read more about Adam but I'm also completely annoyed with Juliette.

I don't know if I will read the other books, maybe I will skip the 2nd and read ther 3rd one.

[Jan]

More drama than the hot cover would lead me to believe. But I love how the main female handles the issues she is dealing with. And the male character is a turn-on. He is fun and sexy.

[Kari]

I just finished reading Crash and am now starting the 2nd book in the series, call Clash. Such a great series so far and i can't wait to read more!

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

I started which is such an interesting book. I am about a third through, and the premise is that the main character (Ursula) is born in 1910 and then dies, and is then reborn again in 1910. So she dies in a myriad of ways and each time comes back and 'changes', without being aware of why, the way she died last time.
It is the kind of book you need to sit and read in big chunks because otherwise it can get a bit confusing, but the writing is beautiful, great characters and such an interesting story. I'm sucked in!

[Sarah]

I also am reading Life After Life - only about a quarter done - am not completely sucked in, not yet anyway, so I am also gonna start and hope this one really grabs me.

[Amanda]

I'm reading . So far it's really funny. I'm not very far into it yet, but I think it will be quite good.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

I understand Sarah, sometimes you need to get into something else and then come back to it! enjoy the Shining Girls

Looks interesting Amanda - let me know if you still enjoy it at the end as I may add it to the list!

[Leslie]

I'm currently reading Betrayed: Days of the Rogue by (there are no covers for her books because they are all ebooks) It's the newest book in her series and I'm really liking it. It's definitely one of the more interesting series I've picked up in a while and I highly recommend it.

[Franky]

I'm currently reading and really enjoy it. Although I've noticed the huge difference between the book and the movie by Peter Jackson that doesn't diminish my love for both.

Also I can't wait to finally encounter Smaug!

PS: I really don't know why I haven't read The Hobbit yet. But better late than never, right?

[Sarah]

Started . I enjoyed the opening folk tale the father told his kids at bedtime. That is as far as I got.

[Shawna]

Clara's War: One Girl's Story of Survival
I am reading Clara's War and finding it a very emotional read. I highly recommend it. I am also reading Gone Girl, not very far into it yet, the first few chapters i almost gave up on it, but i am starting to enjoy it now.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Shawna - Oh that looks like something I would need to be in the right mood for!

Gone Girl picks up and is an enjoyable read :)

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Doing the buddy read of

at the moment and it is a very simple, easy to read story. I am enjoying the 80s flashbacks!

Also on audio I have started

which I'm not that impressed with so far. Hopefully it improves

Karen its heartbreaking, but also very inspirational,The amount of love and courage is what keeps me reading.

[Alyssa]

I am currently reading Autumn Storm by Lizzy Ford.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

@Shawna - Once is currently a free download as an audiobook at www.audiobooksync.com, but only until June 26. Although you may not have the emotional readiness for it yet!
I just started it today after taking a very deep breath ;)

[Sarah]

Reading and loving it. Also started . Enjoying it enough so far. And am still slowly trudging through . I will finish. I am loving learning about the history but it is no exciting bookmnb

[Storm]

I'm reading WICKED: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, by Gregory Maguire.

It wasn't so hard to get through the first time I read it, though I suppose it wouldn't seem so if I were in a better reading mood. Anyways it's still a good read so far, still loving the characters.

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

@Sarah - Cleopatra does look interesting! Have you read any of Paul Doherty's books? His Amerotke series is great historical fiction (sorry on my phone, can't link it for you!)

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Just started on audio. I don't know why I've never heard of it. My partner read it in school and it seems to be pretty well known. Oh well, I have moved the rock off me and I'm now about a third through. Interesting book and considering when it was written I can see how other books have used this as inspiration.

Also started today which is a door stop of a book as although only c.500 pages the font is pretty small. So I'm sure to tone up my arm muscles over the next few days getting through it :)

[Sarah]

Finished . It is like this Summer's Gone Girl meets Outlander. Very interesting read. May have to read more of this author.

No I have not. Will have to check it out.

[Naura]

Has anyone read Maine by J. Courtney Sullivan?



I'm only 40 pages in but I just cannot find any attachment to this book. The writing makes me sleepy. It did not get the best reviews, but I always like to judge books on my own. Help!

[Karen ⊰✿, Fiction Aficionado]

Sorry Naura, I haven't. Although I just gave up on a book myself for the same reason. Sometimes it just isn't worth the effort when there are so many other good books out there!!

[Michelle]

I started reading recently and am wondering what all the fuss is about.
I'm over half-way through and am still waiting for something interesting to happen....

[Naura]

Michelle, I read Never Let Me Go a few years ago. I remember thinking the same exact thing... what's all the fuss about!? I wonder how the 2010 movie adaptation is ....

[Michelle]

Naura, I didn't realise it was made into a movie. Considering I am 90% in and still waiting for something interesting to happen I don't think the movie will be high on my priorities to watch any time soon.....

[Nancy from NJ]

I am currently 100 pages into reading Looking for Me by Beth Hoffman. I loved Saving Cee Cee Honeycutt by this author and hope this book is as good if not better. I also am 50 pages into Elin HIlderbrand for a fast summer read. While at one time I was heavy into romance authors and books, I still enjoy this author although she is one of the last. And this latest book is fairly predictable.
This morning I am planning on beginning to listen to And the Mountains Echoed. Since I also downloaded this book I ma also read along. I never intended to listen to this book since I really prefer reading some books but it was available at the library so I decided why not?

[Jess]

I'm rereading and finding it to be a nice fun read again.

I'm listening to and am almost done, but really enjoying learning about the Neanderthal society.

I have about 50 pages left of which I really love but things keep happening that make me want to take an emotional break of a few days before continuing, haha.

At one point Stephen King is going to tell you to stop reading....he means it. lol I can't say anything else without giving away the ending.

[Sarah]

I am gonna start this series next month. Looks like it will be a commitment.
