Carol-- I agree, I should be able to get through WH sometime in the future, but I gave up too quickly on it. I'll try it again soon. Crime and Punishment, so far is a bit easier to understand (I'm one chapter in). I'm excited to get into the book.

[Bhumi]

Me too, I've also given up on Wuthering Heights. Yet I hope to someday find the patience to read it.

[Carol]

Crime and Punishment is a magnificent book.

I read that a couple of weeks ago. What an awesome book!

[KarenLee]

I just finished Skeletons at the Feast by Chris Bohjalian. It was excellent.

I am now going to start The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley.

Magda & Bhumi I stuggled as well with Wuthering Heights. Picked it up about 6 months ago and only got just over a chapter of the way through before giving up. Picked it up again a week ago and finished it yesterday. For me it was all about patience and mindset, just kept going and not too long in I had gotten used to the language and was hooked.

[Brenda]

I finally finished reading Last Night In Twisted River. This was not my favorite book.

[Cecilyn]

I am currently reading . I love the series. This is my 3rd time to read this novel...

[Patrik]

I just finished A Kiss of Shadows (Meredith Gentry, #1)and gave it 4stars. Interesting ideas and plot, some twists but the characters are a bit two-dimensional. Anyway I will order the 2nd book of the series.

I had misty eyes in the end. Read it last year and it was one of my best of the year.

I really want to read that, but I have heard such mixed reviews. I'll be looking forward to what you think.

I really enjoyed that book!! I actually love all of her books they are all very good!

[Marti]

I really liked Nefertiti too!!

I just finished reading The Paris Vendetta by Steve Berry. Another enjoyable thrilling chase and looking for treasure book.

[Carol]

I have to get that one. I have read all of his so far. Who is your favorite character,Marti

[Maria]

i finished Very Valentine from Adriana Trigiani today, and i really enjoyed it.

i'll start The Last Dickens from Matthew Pearl tonight or tomorrow. i read his The Dante Club a few months ago and it was a fantastic story. i'm not a huge Dickens fan, but i'm hoping this one is still an entertaining read for me.

Eliza, I have an author interview on my blog with John Connolly. If you liked Book of Lost THings, you really should check out his newest - The Gates!

Take it from me... WH doesnt get any better. It's best to leave it and never look back :)

[Carol]

I started True Detectives-Jonathan Kellerman

[Marti]

I really like Cotton Malone... I like Henrik too. It is out in hard cover, I have been in line at the library. The historical story was not as prominent as it has been. More stunts for Cotton this time. Which was your favorite book?

I am reading Not My Daughter by Barbara Delinsky. Premise - three best friends age 17 get pregnant.

[Carol]

I can't think of the woman who is Henriks side kick . I like her . I think so far The Alexandria Link is out in front, although I have liked them all.

Oh, but Lori, I've also heard some very good things about it; people seem to love this book. It doesn't help that I already bought the book, and it's going to sit on my desk for months, waiting to be read.

[Lori, Super Mod]

Bhumi, Each to their own, right? I agree that a very many people out there enjoyed this novel and some even consider it a favorite. I just have to scratch my head and wonder what the heck I was reading then :)

I was one that loved "Wuthering Heights". It's kind of a tough read but I enjoyed it.

Her name escapes me too - maybe Cassandra Witt? She was not in this novel at all.

[C.]

I'm currently doing a reread of Second Helpings by Megan McCafferty whilst trying to finish Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk.

I just finished The Unseen by Alexandra Sokoloff and was a bit "meh" about it. I'm now reading Audrey's Door by Sarah Langan. It already has the potential to be a better haunted house story than The Unseen.

I can't wait to really get into it. I have been reading a good bit of WWII settings lately, and I LOVE them!

I finally caved and bought this tonight, after two months of eyeing it, but know I won't get to it right away. Too much going on right now, and at least two book commitments to fill before end of the month. Why can't I just stay home all day and read??

[Stephanie]

Heather I ask myself that same thing almost every day! ;)

[Carly]

The View From Castle Rock - Alice Munro
Dreaming in Stereo - Steven Broderick
This Year in Jerusalem - Mordecai Richler

[Linda]

Just started Two Rivers by T. Greenwood yesterday and am about 2/3 of the way through it already. Just can't seem to put it down.

[Stephanie]

I just started A Reliable Wife by Robert Goolrick.

[Cait]

I'm almost done with Ulysses (200 pages left) and I've also started Tipping the Velvet, which has been slow paced but enjoyable.

[Carol]

Cait are you finding Ulysses worth the struggle?

[Donna]

I am now reading my last (for now, hopefully) ARC of Sleep No More

[Cait]

carol (akittykat) wrote: "Cait are you finding Ulysses worth the struggle?"

Absolutely. It's definitely had it's ups and downs, but I'm already glad that I challenged myself to read it. I plan on popping back in to the discussion thread as soon as I'm finished with Episode 15 (Circe).

[KarenLee]

I have just started 13 1/2 by Nevada Barr. It is my turn! Even though I requested it before the library even had it, it still took forever to arrive. Anyway, I'm excited!

I just read that one this month. It was really good. Enjoy!

[Jeane]

Finished The Mists of Avalonand still reading The Color Purple and a book in Spanish.
Just started The Eight

[Bridgit]

Just finished The Name of the Wind which is one of the best fantasy books i have ever read. I can't wait for the second in the trilogy to come out. If you are a fantasy fan, I highly recommend trying this one on!

Am now half way through Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and am finding it quite enjoyable to read. The imaginative descriptions and questions and language of the little boy have really helped to paint such a colorful story.

For me, its more about the little boy as a wondrous, exploring character than about the underlying plot of the story. But again, am only halfway!

[Edith]

I'm reading Catching Fire. I don't know what it is about this series but I can't seem to say no to these books. Not my usual genre but I'm racing through this one.
