About to start Sam Shepard's Rolling Thunder Logbook .

[[deleted user]]

Haven't posted for awhile been too busy with the house of night novels. I'm currently one chapter away from finishing Awakened which is the eighth (and last released) in the series. Now I have to wait till October or November for the next one.

Next i'll be onto The Spellmans Strike Again by Lisa Lutz which should be funny.

Detriech - I'm happy to hear that you liked Fool more than A Dirty Job, I haven't yet had a Chris Moore book thats been able to match it so i'll have to try Fool as my next one.

Love, love, love Gone with the Wind--book and movie! I think I'm going to reread GWTW this year. Enjoy!

[Diane]

I read that last year. I found it really enjoyable all the way through. Hope you do too!

[Tess]

Just started "Five quarters of an Orange"

[Yulande]

Reading Cloudsplitter by Russell Banks. Really, really powerfully written.

[Erin]

I'm reading Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption by Laura Hillenbrand. Pretty amazing story of endurance in the most challenging circumstances. Writing is solid, as well.

[for-much-deliberation]

I'm reading "The Story of Mankind" by Hendrik Von Loon. Its an amazing and quite interestingly written book chronicling from the dawn of humans to the then present events...

[Natalie]

I have started The Joy Luck Club . Loved the movie , finally reading the book .

[Lynda]

I'm reading The Joy Luck Club too. I'm liking it so far.

[Eden]

I'm currently reading Famous Pennsylvania Hauntings: Famous and Not so Famous Ghostly Encounters From the Keystone State by Lawrence J. Gavlak.

[Maria]

i finished Sarah's Key the other night, and i loved it. i picked up Blue Bloods for some quick, easy reading.

[Venuskitten]

I am reading King Death by Toby Litt - nearly halfway through, and enjoying it a lot. King Death is very a well constructed mystery investigated by two amateur sleuths.
Next on the list is to finish reading The Hare with Amber Eyes by Edmund de Waal - an engrossing memoir about a family's collection of netsuki.

[Tess]

Sarah's Key was excellent

[Amber]

I am currently on chapter 6 of Halfway to the Grave (Night Huntress #1). So far, it for some reason reminds me a lot of Karen Monings Fever series, which I LOVED. I hope I continue to enjoy it!

[Diane]

Well I guess I'd better get on Sarah's Key with these two glowing recommendations!

[Carol]

You know I didn't like Sarah's Key. I think we discussed it here in another thread. It was a book with mixed reviews. I look forward to hearing what you think about it.

[Alisha Marie]

I finished Deeper than the Dead and it was just okay. I've definitely read way better mysteries. Now I'm reading Into Thin Air: A Personal Account of the Mt. Everest Disaster, which I'm already loving.

[Claire]

Tiger Eyes - Judy Blume

[cazdoll]

ScarpettaOnly started it

[Jeane]

Finished yesterday Agatha Christie's Secret Notebooks: Fifty Years of Mysteries in the Making - Includes Two Unpublished Poirot Storiesand this morning The Death of a Mafia Don. Bth great books.
StartingPort Mortuarynow!

[Bridgette]

Playing with fire by PETER ROBINSON

[Betsy]

Finished Atwell's Robber Bridge and They Went to the Field -Women Soldiers of the Civil War.Atwell's was the best written,but then it was fiction. The other book by Tsui was interesting but written for a college degree and was "just the facts,Mam"

[Paula]

I'm reading a new to me author (and I've forgotten her name right now) but the title is "Invisible" an Ivy Malone Mystery I'm really enjoying it so far, it's a christian lit cozy mystery but not a lot of christian stuff in it. It kind of reminds me a bit of the Anne George Southern Sisters cozies.

[Susanna]

Currently I'm browsing 101 Cult Movies You Must See Before You Die and I'll be starting Catch-22 by Joseph Heller as a "real" read.

[MichelleCH]

Susanna wrote: "Just about to start Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead."

I loved The Fountainhead..hope you enjoy it as well.

[Flora]

Finished Saving Ceecee Honeycutt and absolutely loved it.

Just now getting started on City of Ashes and so far its ok.

[Donna]

I picked up Caravans: A Novel of Afghanistan by James Michner and The Black Echo

[Mary]

I'm reading The Poison Tree, which is a pretty typical first novel in the sense that it's rather thin and uneven, but it's not bad.

[Madeline]

I started A Local Habitation today, second after Rosemary and Rue which I finished a couple days ago. I liked Rosemary, the main characters was likable though... somewhat of an idiot in her methods. Her backstory makes it believable for the most part though.

Did you read all the earlier books to? I still have to finish Scarpetta, somehow I stopped reading in the middle of the book.. not sure why. Maybe I should pick it up again to!

Erin: I wanted to see if her writing style would interest me and picked up her book Seabiscuit. I loved it. It opened up a whole world of information about horse racing I had not previously known. The story was solid and fascinating. I will most definitely read her latest.

It was okay for me. It might have been better for me if I hadn't read Atlas Shrugged first. In comparison, The Fountainhead kind of seemed like a smaller-scale version of AS.

Thanks, Catie. I'm not too far in but so far it is good and interesting. I really like the way the author writes true to the dialect of the family, etc.

[Christy]

I'm reading When Will There Be Good News? by Kate Atkinson. I really like it as I've liked all of this author's books.

[Erin]

I am succumbing to peer pressure and am going to give The Hunger Games a try. It doesn't sound like my kind of thing, but I think I need to know what all the fuss is about.

I really want to check out Seabiscuit after finishing Unbroken. I'm impressed with Hillenbrand's storytelling. Thanks for the recommendation!

[Emilly R]

Last night i finished reading "VINEGAR HILL"by A MANETTE ANSAY the story was a fascinating look at family struggle ,feminism and domestic violence.

[Scott]

I'm finishing up the series by reading The Dark Tower.

[Flora]

I finished City of Ashes and really liked it. I thought it was much better than the first one.

Getting started now on The Scarlet Letter

I've had Vinegar Hill on my shelf for awhile, I just haven't gotten to it yet. It seems like you enjoyed it, Emily. Would you recommend I move it up on my priority list?

[Bonnie]

Question for you guys. (Topic related to thread.)

A friend of mine just gave me a draft of a novel he has written. I'd kind of like to make a note of it on here as it is a book that I am reading, but is it ok if I add an unpublished book? Or should I just keep this one to myself? Thoughts?

It is a good read ,but,it can be disturbing and sad the old man is such a creep

[Lianne]

I am halfway through Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children. It's been sitting on my shelf since last summer so I'm glad I'm finally reading it xD
