I started Kafka on the Shore last night. Seems promising and interesting.

[Maya]

I finished The Book Of Tomorrow By Cecelia Ahern and Hell's Heroes By Darren Shan and i just started Living With The Dead By Kelley Armstrong

[Efe]

I just finished Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. I really loved it and am now starting Dragonfly in Amber but also hoping to dip into Brave New World

[Paula]

I'm reading "Pretties" Scott Westerfeld.

[Alisha Marie]

I put down The Historian because it was going to slow for me and I kept dreading picking it up. Now I'm starting Bloodstream by Tess Gerritsen.

I thought The Historian was just okay.

I wasn't a big fan of Gargoyle.

I am currently reading Mini Shopaholic. It is an easy read. I just finished The White Queen and The Red Queen. I liked the first one, but the second one seemed like I was basically reading the same thing again. I hope the 3rd one is better. Next up: Vampire Academy. Any thoughts on that one?

I really enjoyed that book, which surprised me because I have never enjoyed anything about a circus. But, it was very good!

I love the VA series! Just finished #4 this weekend.

[Diane]

I finally finished The Woman in White, by Wilkie Collins. It's one of the best written books I've come across . . . . I really enjoyed the intrigue and gothic atmosphere.

I read that one a couple of years ago and really liked it! I read The Moonstone last year and loved that one too.

[Brenda]

Just finished The Little Giant of Aberdeen County. Now reading The Bark of The Dogwood.

I thought it was a good story once I got into it, but it seemed like the longest book I've ever read. : )

[Linda]

I have just started The Bronze Horseman. I'm about 50 pages in and I think I have a problem. I have never cared for romance and this just seems like a very slow moving love story. Tell me....is there anything more to this one? Should I read on?

[Candyce]

I'm currently in the midst of reading 3 books. I started The Demon King by Cinda Williams Chima. I struggled through a small portion of it, and decided to try Magyk (Septimus Heap Book One). I started to enjoy that one somewhat, then I was surprised with the gift of A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin, which I absolutely could not wait a single momemt to begin. Did not know there was gonna be a series on HBO. Don't know how I feel about that. Happy reading!

[Tess]

Just started Elizabeth Gilbert's Committed. We will se...

[Emilly R]

many years ago i read "3 horsemen of the apocalipsy" i am not sure about the title or author .The story is set in during the war in France

[Brenda]

I am reading Heads You Lose by Lisa Lutz and David Hayward

[Madeline]

I finished Dracula which was fantastic but grossly misrepresented by our current culture, which surprised me a bit. Although I should be used to it by now. I had the same revelation following Frankenstein. So I'm back to Cover Her Face, and am just a minute farther in than I was before.

[KHoopMan]

Just finished Son of a Witch...loved it! My favorite part about finishing a book is selecting the next book!! Can't wait to go stare at my tbr bookshelf...

[Maria]

i started The Transformation of Bartholomew Fortuno yesterday. so far it's ok, but not too fantastic. we'll see if it gets better.

[Paula]

I'm starting "A Real Basket Case" Beth Groundwater.A Real Basket Case

[Anne]

I just finished Water for Elephants, which was wonderful, and I've just begun The Moviegoer, by Walker Percy. I enjoyed alternating between reading contemporary fiction and classic novels.

[Emilly R]

I am still reading "Three Junes"it is taking too long ,i have so many other books that i just purchased that it is getting difficult to finish reading this one

[Blaine]

Just began "Cosima" by Grazia Delidda. She is an Italian author who lived in Sardenia and was the first female Italian writer to win the Nobel Prize.
Is very, very descriptive in nature, with minimal dialogue.

[Alisha Marie]

I finished Bloodstream by Tess Gerritsen and thought that the beginning was fantastic. After that, it started getting really disappointing. Now I'm going to start The Catcher in the Rye since I went through high school without being required to read it.

[Jeane]

Finished Suite Françaiseand started The Other Boleyn Girl. Loving it!

[Tess]

I love all Tess Gerritsen - not just because of her name

[Leah]

I tend to multitask my reading, since I usually have a different book at each locale. The currently juggles are:
Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace... One School at a Time - At home
The Beach Street Knitting Society and Yarn Club - At the Office
In Cold Blood - At the BF's house

I'm quite ADD, so it was terrific when I discovered I could read multiple books at one time and didn't have to choose...whatever one is where I am, that's what I'm reading! :o)

[Tess]

Tell me what yhou think of Three Cups of Tea - I loved that one

[Leah]

Definitely! I just started it two days ago, and already stayed up way too late reading one night from not wanting to put it down.

[Karen]

I am currently reading Heinrich Boll's 'The Train Was on Time'. Good book. Easy read - although the subject matter -WWII is not. First book from this nobel prize winner. Recommended.

[Betsy]

Okay,so this is probably not the place to ask this...But I'm not sure what forum is...
At one point I had the books listed by author in the "MyBooks" section. Now its' just a random listing. I'd like to get back the by author listing.How do you do that?

[Anna]

I'm currently reading Whitethorn Woods by Maeve Binchy

It's not as good as some of her other books but a nice bedtime read.

[Claire]

The Beach House - Jane Green

[Donna]

Just finished Between Shades of Gray and gave it a nice 5 stars!

Now I am reading Island of the Blue Dolphins. I have list of books to read in order but I forgot to grab one on my way out to work this morning so I am reading the smallest book on my shelf at work. Plus, I really did want to read this book anyway so score for me!

[Flora]

I'm just starting The Nature of Monsters and so far I like it.

[Claire]

I've just read Stolen by Tess Gerritsen and thoroughly enjoyed it :)

[Christy]

I'm finishing up A Storm of Swords which is the 3rd book in the Song of Fire and Ice series. It's amazing, but also heartbreaking. I just started Room. I think I need a happy book next.

[Anna]

Lauren, do give Water for Elephants another go. I thought it was a fantastic book and has one of the best endings I've ever read.

[Christy]

Loved loved loved Water for Elephants. I agree, give it another try.

[Donna]

Ditto Water for Elephants. I gave it 5 Stars!

[Alisha Marie]

I finished The Catcher in the Rye and don't really get what the big deal is...I ended up giving it two stars. Now I'm going to start The Ruins by Scott Smith.

[Arda]

I'm currently reading Leugenaars you might know this book by the original title (Den der lyver) or the English one (The Liar). It is set in a small Danish countryside village. I don't know how it is to live there but I think it gives a good view into the village live there.

I'm also reading Wuthering Heights and Fury, although less frequent, first finish the other book.

[Tess]

Just finished the Beach House a few weeks ago. I did enjoy it. Fun summertime read

Betsy, you are correct, this is probably not the best place to ask :) There is actually a thread for questions about the group that this would have worked well in...

Either way, I think you should be able to sort by author under "my books" by licking the word AUTHOR - it's a hyperlink - but I am not sure if it will remain sorted that way. You may have to filter it each time you go into "my books".

[Patricia]

I finished Loving Frank by Nancy Horan. I had recently read The Women by T.C. Boyle so I knew what was going to happen at the end. Loving Frank covers Frank Lloyd Wright's love affair with Mamah Borthwick (#2) while The Women goes into the 4 romantic interests in his life (interestingly starting from his last and going backwards to his first wife). I thought Loving Frank was much more sympathetic to Mamah since it was told through her point of view while The Women was told through a third party (one of the architect's assistants). It also made you think more about feminism and how greatly times have changed since the early 1900's. While Frank Lloyd Wright was a genius with his art, he's not an exemplary ladies man. Both were good reads.

Now I'm moving on to A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute.

Is that the one about the big road? normally love her books too but this might be the lesser one for me too.

[Jeane]

Reading The Other Boleyn Girland loving it but damned that sister!
