Reading Angel Time by Anne Rice, which I'm enjoying.


Creepy, but sooooo good. I loved it.


Ooooh, my Montalbano book is waiting on my shelf....never read any story with him in it and I am very curious!

would like to finish these before the new year.


Up next is a non-fiction Hidden Power Presidential Marriages That Shaped Our History. I've been looking forward to this one, and it was finally available at my library.


How is it so far? I have heard people either loving or hating this book. I'm not sure if I want to read it or not, but let me know how you like it.

I read One Thousand White Women The Journals of May Dodd with my in person book group and the discussion was very interesting. It is still a favorite book of the group.

The hubbs just got done reading that and made me swear to read it next lol. He absolutely loved it.



I love this trilogy. Be patient, City of Glass the book is fantastic and the third, could not put it down.

I'm currently reading The Museum of Innocence by Orhan Pamuk.So far so good....I'm just at the beginning.....
Next...I just got The Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood.I'm really looking forward to start it.

I just love Montalbano novels. It's like a slice of life with a nice mystery on the side. My favourite character by far is Catarella. Love him to pieces.

I've added Gilead to my list, thanks!



I enjoyed them, especially The Sugar Queen. I put a request in for her next book at the library. It's not out until March, I think.

Yes, I like the movie too :-)

I loved Rebecca. It was one of my all time favorites. I also enjoyed Mrs. DeWinter as a follow up. It was not as good as Rebecca but it was interesting.

I'll have to reserve mine too so it won't be a long wait!

I had high hopes for this book, but it's been totally disappointing so far. I'm about 3/4 of the way through. I'd love to know what you think of it when you're done.

Vicki:
Hope you enjoy this fun romp as much as I did. I am now a real fan of Fforde. The Eyre Affair was one of the more creative mysteries I have read from a book about a book standpoint.

I am enjoying it so far. I think I am really going to like these books.

I loved Speak. It is very powerful.

i started The Fixer Upper from Mary Kay Andrews, and i'm nearly finished with it. this was exactly what i needed, something light-hearted but with a good story to it. i should finish it up tonight, i don't have much more to go.
I am reading cassie edwards savage spirit

Speak was one of my top books of the year. I thought it was amazing.
I went to the library yesterday, and as usual, made a stunning display of my complete lack of self-control. I always go in thinking I should get just 3 or 4 books so that I still have time to read some of the books that I have on my shelves at home. I never seem to keep to that resolution. Yesterday being a prime example, I ended up 7 books.
They are:
Eon Dragoneye Reborn by Alison Goodman
Fire by Kristin Cashore
The Servants' Quarters by Lynn Freed
Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson
The Everafter by Amy Huntley
A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby
Lament The Faerie Queen's Deception by Maggie Stiefvater
Now I get the task of figuring out which to read first. Lament and Eon: Dragoneye Reborn are both high in the running so far, but I haven't looked at Fire yet either... :D

Blood of Elves
Bureau 13 #1 Judgment Night
Perdido Street StationFaded Steel HeatShadow Games
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell
A Princess of Mars
The Sword and the ChainSwords Against Death (Lankhmar, #2)
Cugel's Saga

Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
The Gargoyle
That Old Cape Magic
I had to return Guernsey awhile back before I finished it so I will read the rest of it and be ready to start The Gargoyle on Friday.

I'm reading Stephen King's new book, Under the Dome, and it's really good so far!


JG--I am so jealous that you're reading that. I've been itching to get over to B&N to pick up a copy of it with my Christmas $! haha


The Forever War
Ceremony
The Book of Lost Things
I'm putting them all to my 50 pg. test :) "
I just finished Forever War a couple days ago. It was a little weird. What do you think of it so far?
And what's the 50 page test?
