I've just started Fatelessness by Imre Kertész. I'm only on page 15, but I'm enjoying at the moment.

[Susanna - Censored by GoodReads]

Started Fatal Voyage, by Kathy Reichs, last night.

Service With a Smile by P.G. Wodehouse

[Lindz]

I love P G Wodehouse!

Still Read Jane Eyre which I am absolutely loving. If you thought this was the leaden novel you read as a teenager, read as an adult it has so much colour and texture.

[Holly]

Currently, Dead Girl's Dance by Rachel Caine.

I got that one the other day. Hope you enjoy it!"

I've only read good reviews both from friends and here on Goodreads. Looking forward to a good book.

[Marti]

Reading Black Hills by Nora Roberts. Good mystery and love story. Is hard to walk away and put it down.

[Lauren]

Still reading The Stand by Stephen King... I don't know why but I am finding this book a little hard to get through!

Finished My Sisters Keeper the other day which i really enjoyed except for the amount of crying i did during it.

Now onto the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho which i'm finding pretty easy to read though not all that interesting to me so far. Hope it picks up.

[Darcia]

I'm almost finished with All The Pretty Girls by J.T. Ellison. This is her first book and looks to be an upcoming series. (I already have the second book.) I'm really enjoying her writing. It's a great mystery/suspense story. The characters are very believable and I haven't found one dull page. There's not a lot of blood and gore, so it's also great for those who don't like a lot of gory detail in their mystery/suspense stories.

Last night I started The Uses of Enchantment The Meaning and Importance of Fairy Tales, Bruno Bettelheim. I had to read parts of it in one of my college psych classes and purposely kept my copy so I could eventually read it all. Decided 10 years after graduating was probably as good a time as any. :)

[Marci]

I just finished You Can't Drink All Day if You Don't Start in The Morning by Celia Rivenbark. A great southern humorist very light and enteraining. Just started The House at Riverton by Kate Morton which I have had in my to be read pile for awhile.

[Janny]

Finished Someone Knows My Name, which turned out to be beautifully researched. I was tickled to note in the author's afterward, an acknowledgment of the nonfiction history book, Black Cargoes A History of the Atlantic Slave Trade 1518-1865 by Daniel P. Mannix, which I read years ago. He was my landlord for 11 years, and quite an extraordinary man.

[Soumya]

currently reading The monk who sold his ferrari.. a good book of inspiration...a fabel of sages of sivana..

[Bridgit]

Reading Jonathan Kellerman's A Cold Heart. I read a ton of the Alex Delaware series about 10-15 years ago, but nothing since. I really liked it back then, so hopefully I will like the revisit!

[Tracy S]

Finishing up Frankenstein and The Great Gatsby this weekend and hopefully starting A Dirty Job.

[JSou]

Finished House of Leaves last night. Just started Player Piano by Kurt Vonnegut. How is it that I've never read KV's first novel???

[Juniper]

Hello!

I am about to start Traveling with Pomegranates: A Mother-Daughter Story by Sue Monk Kidd and Ann Kidd Taylor.

I finished The Help by Kathryn Stockett last night and loved it!! I highly recommend it.

[Stephanie]

Having absolutely zero motivation to pick Something Wicked This Way Comes over the last couple of days, I've started The Secret History. I'm not abandoning Something Wicked for good, I just need to find a time to sit down and plow through it. I just can't get into a rhythm with it.

[Agnieszka]

I am currently reading Richard Lee Byers' 'Dissolution' and I have to admit that I'm enjoying it immensely - partially because I love the language he uses, it makes for a really good flow, plus, the story itself is really engaging. Albeit it could be perceived as your usual Forgotten Realms book at times, as well. The battles here are on the boring side. I skipped the most recent one. Although I really adore some of the characters that are depicted in the story. Next, I will try to pick up 'Necroscope' by Brian Lumley again (since I'm reading too many books simultaneously and I tend to forget to finish reading what I've already started..).

[Jessika]

Right now, I'm reading Nicholas Sparks' The Guardian. I'm about halfway through and I like it so far! It took a little bit to pick up for me, and it is kinda fluffy, but that's perfect for me since I only get every so often to read while I'm here at school!

[Michelle♥]

I just finished Congo by Michael Crichton earlier today and it was exceptionally well written. I could not believe how fast I read that book.

It was my first Crichton book and now I have to say that I am addicted. I am reading Timeline by Crichton now and absolutely love the prose. I think I found a "new" (at least to me) author that I really like.

It's been an interesting rollercoaster with the last few books I've read. I hope to finish it by this evening and then hopefully pick up The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and see what all the hype is about...

I am finally going to read that one next month. Very curious about it. The summary looks very interesting but I have heard mixed thoughts about it.

I am so glad you like the book Yvette! It seems to be a love or hate book and I absolutely loved it too!

The Guardian is one of my favorite Sparks books so far. It was different than his others, a bit of a suspense novel.

[Susan]

I just started Home Safe by Elizabeth Berg. Its very good and I cant wait to read more to see what happens!!

[Carol]

I am reading John Adams-David Mac Cullough. I am really liking this book. He brings John Adams alive for me. It is not another dry biography.

[Susan]

Did you see the John Adams mini series on HBO?? I loved that series....I learned so much about him that I never knew before!

[Carol]

Susan wrote: "Did you see the John Adams mini series on HBO?? I loved that series....I learned so much about him that I never knew before!"

No. I will have to get it from netflix, we don't have cable. I read Founding Mothers by Cokie Roberts . I learned a lot about the women of the Revolutionary war. It was a good book.

[Susan]

We loved the John Adams series so much we got the box set! You need to rent it - I'm sure you will love it. It made my husband cry and he never cries! LOL(well except for the first night after he had torn rotator cuff surgery....he was is THAT much pain!!

Water for Elephants is supposed to be amazing, that's also on my to read list as well. =)

[Cathy]

Thanks to whoever recommended the book My Enemy's Cradle by Sara Young. A really good book about how the Nazi's encouraged young mothers to have babies for the Third Reich. It was a great story with great characters.

[Susan]

Ohhh that sounds good. I'm going to check and see if the library has this one! Thank you!!

[Kathy]

I just finished The Woman in Black A Ghost Story by Susan Hill, a great classic ghost story. I'm now reading Sherlock in Love A Novel by Sena Jeter Naslund, one of my favorite authors (Ahab's Wife and Abundance).

[Carol]

Just added woman in black and enemys cradle to my tbr list. They both sound good.

[Susan]

I just finished The Woman in Black and it was okay.....I hope you like it better than I did.

[Mary]

I just finished In the Company of the Courtesan and am thrilled to start the newest book by one of my all-time favorite authors, Ruht Rendell--The Monster in the Box .

I have My Enemy's Cradle but haven't read it yet. I'm moving it up on the list.

Crichton has been one of my favorite authors. I still have a few in my stacks unread. I'm saving them because I know there will be no more.

[Ana]

I'm reading "Nadia knows best", by Jill Mansell. I needed to read something "light".

[Donna]

I'm reading 2 books, Murder on the Eiffel Tower and The Queen's Devotion The Story of Queen Mary II and enjoying them both.

I really liked this also, and usually have trouble getting through biographies. John Adams is my favorite Revolutionary War hero! My husband and I were in Boston a few years ago, and attended Sunday services at the church he went to (in Quincy). His crypt is in the basement of the church and I got to touch it! Abigail is also there as well as his president-son, John Quincy Adams and his wife.

right now I am reading "The Book of Negroes" by Lawrence Hill. I am only on pg 130 but already can NOT put it down, a fantastic book!!!

[Lori, Super Mod]

Stephanie, I struggled to want to pick up Something Wicked when I was reading it to. The movie was so creepy and strange, and the book just didnt give me the same feeling. Bradbury is such a talented writer, however, this one kinda left me feeling flat.
