Falling to Pieces: A Quilt Shop Murder - Vanetta Chapman
Pre-Publication Galley from Zondervan (yes, I do get a lot of these things. Cute so far, set in a rural town in Indiana with a lot of Amish.)

The Player of Games - Iain M. Banks
Giving another of his books a try, didn't like the first one much, friends say this one is actually better. Not sure yet.

[Nora aka Diva]

The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, so far it so beyond mundane and boring. Blargh, I don't like it.

[Dani]

how was "Roots", Patricia?"

Roots was very good, I'm glad I re-read it. Very long book, and some parts went on and on a little more than I liked. There..."

I am stop and go on the book. it is very hard for me to read. I'm sensitive to the issues presented in this book but I'm :glad: I have it.

[Helen]

I started Time's Edge on the way to work today (yes I'm behind!), I'm really enjoying it so far.

[Peter]

The Perfect Deceit

An intriguing and fascinating book on how countries vie against each other to be top dog on the world stage. Spies, double agents, love triangles -- it’s all in a days work! In today’s interconnected world, this book gives one an interesting perspective on how much competition goes on behind the scenes with ambitions and stakes running high. Hearts are broken and for some power is gained. High drama and lots of mind games makes for perfect summer reading!

[Cheryl]

Just finished Nightshade by Michelle Rowen and The Tuesday Club Murders by Agatha Christie and now I'm starting The Iron Queen by Julie Kagawa

[Kerri]

I'm currently a few chapters into Jane Eyre and I'm wondering why it took me so long to ever pick up this book! Probably because I hated Wuthering Heights so much. Just goes to show you should never judge one sister by the other!

[Helen]

I prefer Wuthering Heights, I used to read it every year.

[eleanor]

I'm in the middle of a crazy summer but I must ask; if I was to start w/a Steinbeck novel (not 'of mice & men' please) any suggestions. I hear 'The Grapes of Wrath' is Excellent but aren't there a few books similar to the theme of the 1 named above?
I saw a cover w/James Dean & got a little nuts. Don't know why.. He was before my time

[Dani]

finished Amish grace it was ok not a favorite and now i am currently reading The girl who played with fire by stieg larsson

[Jenevieve]

Reading The Word for World is Forest and Nightingale's Lament: A Novel of the Nightside for myself in paper form, have The Analects on my phone so that one will take forever, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes on my kindle so longer than usual since I only read it out and about, These Happy Golden Years to my 10yr old for school, and then An Age of Voyages, 1350-1600 with my 13yr old for school.

Hmm... I'm definitely intrigued by the book you reviewed! I might have to pick that up once it's released.

[Cate (The Professional Fangirl)]

Thanks! According to the author, she already saw it on the shelves of Barnes & Noble. :)

[Cammie]

I'm trying to finish and decided to start this weekend and

[Sandra]

I'm currently reading Lost in Shangri-La. Great so far.Lost in Shangri-La: A True Story of Survival, Adventure, and the Most Incredible Rescue Mission of World War II

[Helen]

Cate, how scary was it? I don't like horror as it keeps me up but loved Forest of Hands & Teeth and Feed. Would I like it do you think?

I watched the author on an interview with jon stewart. It sounded like an amazing book. Please let me know how it is once you finished it.

[Michelle]

I finished , which I really enjoyed.

I started , , today. I normally don't start three books at once but I was bored.

[Lisa]

I would recommendEast of Eden. One of my favorite books of all time and I'm not a huge Steinbeck fan.

[Everly]

Since I am a sci-fi writer The Crecian Experiance I tend to read sci-fi. Since I write short fiction i love a good sci-fi anthology! I also love reading them on my kindle because then I don't have to lug a huge book with me wherever I go.

[Jenevieve]

I just finished The Word for World is Forest and started Dragongirl.

[Jenny]

I was surprised by how much I liked Jane Eyre. I think Wuthering Heights will be my next book. It seems like people either love it or hate it.

[Kerri]

That's the general impression I get, too, Jenny. I have a friend that loves it and I just... bleh. But I loved Jane Eyre and, I have to say, I was a little surprised by that, too.

[Cate (The Professional Fangirl)]

Jane Eyre.... so much love for that book.

Just finished reading the ARC of and reviewed it here: http://wp.me/p1CKWU-63

Now reading: on nook and ARC of even though it's already available in bookstores. =)

[stormhawk]

Needed something fluffy after finishing Player of Games, so I'm reading Doctor Who: The Evil of the Daleks - John Peel

(The Doctor is my kind of fluffy)

[Jenny]

Just started The House of the Seven Gables. I wasn't particularly interested in it, but it's a Group Read for another group and I've been to the house it's based on so I thought I should give it a go. People seem to either love it or hate it, so we'll see if I finish it or not (I usually always finish a book, but since this is 500+ pages and I have so many other books I want to read, I think I'll be changing this policy).

[Helen]

I'm on Deadline - loving it so far.

[Scott]

I finished Bag of Bones this morning. I thought it was an excellent ghost story.

I'm going to start The Case of Charles Dexter Ward this afternoon. This will be my first read of any Lovecraft.

[Cate (The Professional Fangirl)]

^ I loved "Bag of Bones". :)

Just finished and here's my review: http://wp.me/p1CKWU-6p

Now reading: and .

[Kerri]

Starting on You Don't Sweat Much for a Fat Girl: Observations on Life from the Shallow End of the Pool, my Goodreads giveaway that I just received :)

[Dave]

Just finished Darkest Hour which was a bit average - see my review.

Now onto A Study in Scarlet haven't read Holmes in ages so time for a re-read.

[Helen]

Finished Deadline, was brilliant. I can't believe I have to wait til next year for Blackout.

I read that when I was on Vacation in Salem last year. Never made it to the tour of the house, but I decided that download it for free on my Kindle rather than paying for a copy at the witch museum.

At least now I can say I read it. I somehow managed to avoid American Lit in high school.

[S]

I'm currently trying to read: Rant: An Oral Biography of Buster Casey, Brain Droppings, On the Road, Angela's Ashes, The Importance of Being Earnest, Wuthering Heights, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Finnegans Wake, Breakfast of Champions, Cat's Cradle, Death of a Salesman, The Glass Menagerie, and The Loved One.

[stormhawk]

unusual mix! Rant is not an easy read, I hope you've read Chuck before. If you haven't you're in for a bit of a shock. Hitchhiker's is the funniest book I've ever read. Breakfast of Champions wasn't as good as God Bless You Mr Rosewater, and I haven't read the others.

[Dani]

finished recently The girl who played with fire by stieg larsson and now im reading Son of a witch by gregory maguire

[Cammie]

Started last night

[Dave]

Finished in record time thanks to a long train journey today.

now onto the latest Dresden Files book

This is my first book by Chuck, but it's going very well. It certainly won't be my last. And I plan on reading all of Vonnegut, I'll be sure to make Rosewater my next read.

Just finished: and reviewed it here http://wp.me/p1CKWU-6V

[sonya]

mr. paradise by elmore leonard

[Michelle]
