I just finished The Killer Inside Me. It was really good, but I have no idea what happened at the end of the book.

Now I'm starting Casino Royale. I'm interested in seeing which actor most fits the description of James Bond.

[Steph]

Still in the middle of three books. Oryx and Crake which is great and moving faster for me than the others. I think I just haven't gotten to the heart of Rebecca yet and haven't devoted enough time to it. But i'm really stuck with Hateship, Friendship, Courtship, Loveship, Marriage: Stories though and just can't seem to get through it like the other book I read of hers (Alice Munro) called Too Much Happiness: Stories which is disappointing. I'm considering putting it into the "to be continued" pile because I just can't get into it right now.

[Carol]

David Niven star in the 1967 version of Casino Royale. He was sexy and so believable as James Bond .

[Tracy]

Just finished reading Let the Right the Right In and started The Promised Land by Mary Antin. I am reading the Barnes and Noble version for the Nook for 99 cents :o) The book is an autobiography of Mary's Life which began in the Pale of Settlement in Russia and her later years in America.

I cannot wait to read these books. This is one of my dream jobs LOL

I am a little over half way through Still Alice and I love it.

[Maria]

i finished A.D. Scott's A Small Death in the Great Glen last night, and i enjoyed it. turns out it's the first of a new series, so hopefully the things i thought were lacking or odd improve as the series goes on.

i picked up a few at the library tonight, not sure what i'll start next, or when. i leave for my trip on friday, so i'm not sure if i should start a plane book before i leave or wait until i'm actually on the plane to start one of them. decisions decisions!

[Lillie]

Am in the middle of reading The Iron Duke. So far, it's okay. I kind of feel like I've read this story line before even though this is a new book. Hoping it becomes more interesting as I get further into the story.

[Lori, Super Mod]

Did I mention that I finished The People Who Watched Her Pass By and loved it?!?! Click on that link to read my review. 4 stars - a quick engaging read.

Moved on to Termite Parade which looks and sounds gross, right? But it's actually a pretty awesome read. I am just over 1/2 way and I swear, it's like taking every bad dating experience you have ever had and jumbling them all together....

[Chantawn]

I read that book as well. I couldn't put it down. It was great for a first time author.

[Ann from S.C.]

I just finished THRID DEGREE by Greg Iles and it was good. 4 stars

My problem with Niven's Casino Royale is the fact it is a parody.
I collected Bond books when I was a teen and thought that Timothy Dalton was closest to Fleming's Bond.
I've also heard that they tried to get closer to the books with On Your Majesty's Secret Service but as it was one of the least successful Bond films they gave up on that idea.

[Bridgit]

Am in the middle of reading The Last Explorer: Hubert Wilkins, Hero of the Great Age of Polar Exploration which is the story of Hubert Wilkins and how he is the first explorer of the modern age. He was the first to fully explore the poles via plane. So far, reading about his adventures in ANZAC in WWI as their official photographer.

Really great so far. Glad I picked it up.

[Brenda]

Yesterday I finished the amazing book:Christmas with Tucker. I want everyone to read this true-to-life story. It reallt touched my heart.

[Efe]

I just finished Eva Luna by Isabel Allende which I really enjoyed and am now reading Underland series #4 to cleanse my literary palate before jumping into Sarah's Key.

[Lori, Super Mod]

Loved Loved Loved Termite Parade - click link to see my review and the book trailer!!

Moving on to Les Plesko's Slow Lie Detector - which the author interestingly wrote in 1 and 1/2 page chapters. Hmmmm.....

Loved "The Poisonwood Bible".

I finished Maisie Dobbs last week on our cruise & can't wait for the next in the series! Read This Time Together: Laughter and Reflections last night- really cute stories. I just love Carol Burnett. Now I'm reading Pieces of My Heart: A Life. Guess I'm on an autobiography kick!

[Sasha]

Finished Michelangelo: The Artist, the Man and his Times last night; it was okay. Didn't love it.

Started The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements this morning. Fun so far, but I like everything at the beginning, so that doesn't mean anything.

[Kelly]

I just finished The Fiery Cross - shew that was a long one! I love the Outlander series, but I had to stick w/that one for about 250+ pages before it really hooked me.

Onto for a short little fun book, Plum Lovin' then Good Things I Wish You: A Novel for my book club.

[Susanna - Censored by GoodReads]

Read And Only to Deceive, not a complete success (trying to do too many things, I think), and working on Coriolanus, by William Shakespeare.

[Paula]

I'm just getting into "Prior Bad Acts" Tami Hoag. Boy, it sure started out with a bang! Can't wait to get back to it.

[Maria]

i started The Solitude of Prime Numbers today at lunch. it's pretty good so far, hoping to get some reading in tonight between everything else i need to get done!

[Madeline]

Just started The Homeward Bounders, I always love Diana Wynne Jones so I'm looking forward to it. I took too much on myself this week though and now I'm sick. :( Although and excess of antibiotics this summer is probably more to blame. Bah.

I had a friend recommend that one to me. I look forward to hearing what you think of it, Maria.

I just finished Horns last week. I thought that it was great. I couldn't put it down.

Good to know. I was hooked from the very beginning. Have you read his others?

[Betsy]

Finished Middlesex early this morning. For being about hermaphroditism,it was unpornographic and sentimental

Oh boy, are you in for a good thought-provoking read!

[Sasha]

Middlesex is one of my favorite books, Betsy!

I have also read Heart-Shaped Box. I was also good but I thought Horns was better.

[Patricia]

I finished Night by Elie Wiesel and Lady Chatterley's Lover by D.H. Lawrence. Both great reads! I'm now moving on to The Kids Are All Right by Diana Welch.

[Kaion]

Been sidetracked with a bunch of short stories for class, so took two weeks to finish A Tale of Time City (and no lie, it confused me, a lot).

Now reading Daughter of Fortune, which has been mostly painfully slow. I don't need to know every single character's entire life story starting with birth, thank you very much.

[Gitte]

I'm reading Shadow Kiss (Vampire Academy, #3) by Richelle Mead.

[Scott]

I have 20th Century Ghosts in paperback but I have not read a physical book since I got my Nook. Even with Horns, I have the hardback copy but I borrowed the ebook from the library so I could read it on my Nook.

I do have some paper books that I do have to read though.

I have this book on my list to read this winter. I am glad someone has read and enjoyed it.

That's one of my all-time favorite books. I think I was really attracted to Cal's grandparents' and parents' stories, as much as anything. My grandparents were immigrants too (Hungary, not Greece) and had similar experiences.
