I was, and still am, going through a dystopian stage in my reading habits and just finished up "Birth Marked" by Caragh M. O'Brien, "The Reapers Are the Angels" by Alden Bell and "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy but I felt the need for something a little lighter so I've picked up Tina Fey's autobiography "Bossypants" and began it this afternoon. ^_^

[Olivia]

I've taken summer beach reading seriously and am reading the first volume of and finished . Am really looking forward to .

[Doug]

Hi Olivia. How do you put the bookcovers into the blog? Is the series similar to Stephanie Meyers?

Hi Doug. There's a link at the top of the comment box as you're typing that reads "add book/author." Click on that to add covers or links.

Vampire Academy is much sassier and sexier than Twilight, I'd say, maybe less romantic as well. Switched and Torn are part of the Trylle Trilogy, and don't have anything to do with vampires. But it is a paranormal romance and a lot of fun. Also, the author Amanda Hocking is great e-book success story.

[Doug]

Duh, LOL. Thanks. I just read your profile. You are an author of a published book with great reviews!! Awesome. I'll check it out.

Next:

Still on:

[Patricia]

I finished The Maytrees by Annie Dillard. I really wasn't crazy about the style of writing, characters or the story line. Oh well. Next I'll read Body Surfing by Anita Shreve.

[Mafi]

The characters are interesting and the story too but I thought the book was a bit long so I liked it but I recommend with reservations, if you like a very long novel but with a happy ending, then this is the ideal book.

[Mafi]

I just finished The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and now I'm reading Second Summer of the Sisterhood.

[Mafi]

I'm reading and I'm loving it!

[Paula]

I'm reading It's ok so far.

[Maria]

not sure when i was last in here, but i've finished Slow Waltz in Cedar Bend by Robert James Waller. it was ok, not my usual read though.

i'm more than halfway through The Doctor and The Diva from Adrienne McDowell. it's interesting, and a unique story to boot.

[Maya]

just finished Men of the Otherworld By Kelley Armstrong and Casper the Commuting Cat By Susan Finden

[Patricia]

I finished Body Surfing by Anita Shreve and next will read Digging to America by Anne Tyler.

[Gitte]

I'm reading Battle Royale by Koushun Takami and I'm listening to Gathering Blue by Lois Lowry - really like them both!

[Karen M]

Just finishing up Memoirs of a Geisha which I was very late to getting around to reading. Really good book. About halfway through The Insider, I do love a good thriller and this one is great.

[Lynda]

I'm about halfway through Rebeccaand really enjoying it. I also finally started reading The Hunger Games.

[Rahul]

Reading The story of my life by Helen Keller & Sea of Poppies by Amitav Gosh...... Enjoying both the books.

[Pavarti]

The stand is epic, love it. Hope you enjoy!

Susanna wrote: "Did not enjoy The Catcher In The Rye much. Next I'm picking up The Stand, finally."

[Pavarti]

I'm reading A Line in the Ice as well as some awesome titles I picked up at the Indie Book Expo. So much to read and so little time!

[Linda]

Just finished . Gave it a 3.3. The concept is good, but the execution was a bit ho-hum. The ending is what put it in the 3 category for me. Before that I was on the fence about whether I liked it or not.

[Maria]

I finished The Doctor and The Diva which I really liked.

I started Wicked today and although it is so different from what I was expecting, it is wonderful so far.

[Heather L]

Started reading Dracula and am three chapters in so far. Though vaguely familiar with the story (aren't we all?), I've never read it before, and wanted to do so before tackling Dracula in Love by Karen Essex, which arrived in today's mail.

[Patricia]

I finished Digging to America by Anne Tyler and now will read The Story Sisters by Alice Hoffman.

[Flora]

I loved [book:Dracula in Love so much more than the original Dracula. I will definitely keep it to re-read later.

I am currently about half way into The Girl Who Chased the Moon and really like it so far.

[Jennifer]

Finished Stories I Only Tell My Friends: An Autobiography which I picked up on a whim and really enjoyed. Also American Assassin which turned out to be much better than I expected. Not sure why I didn't expect to like it-- I'm enjoying the series. I guess because it's a look back at the character's beginnings and I wasn't really in the mood to see this character at an undeveloped phase of his life. But no matter: my fears were unfounded.

[Annie]

I just finished Sister -- hauntingly good!

Lately, my guilty pleasure has been reading Tess Gerritsen - on the The Mephisto Club!

[Karen M]

Just started Dark Passages. Using the authors word both "vampiric" and funny.

[Mafi]

I'm reading by Ann Brashares

[Antoine]

Jessica wrote: "Now reading Fahrenheit 451. :)"

Cool book!

[Paula]

I'm starting . I've been wanting to read this one for a long time.

[Emilly R]

i just finished "GILEAD"by MARYLYNNE ROBINSON a beautiful book.

[Mafi]

I'm reading by José Rodrigues dos Santos

[Linda]

Paula wrote: "I'm starting . I've been wanting to read this one for a long time."

Paula: I read this book years ago, but it has stayed with me. What a great "sister act". These two are quite an inspirational pair.

[Paula]

Thanks Linda, I'm really enjoying it so far.

[Claire]

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban - J.K. Rowling

[Mafi]

I'm reading by Ann Brashares and by José Rodrigues dos Santos

[Annie]

I have recently picked up the Tess Gerritsen series Rizzoli and Isles -- now on The Keepsake and I am loving them. They are great summer reads which I am looking forward to completing before the school year starts!

[Beth]

My last two reads were recommended, for good reason, by reader friends, and I really enjoyed them both:

Left Neglected
(This is written by the same author as one of the August discussion books, and if you like Still Alice, you'll like this book, too)

The Book Thief

[Claire]

I just finished Mockingjay and really liked it. I can't wait for The Hunger Games movie to come out. I am now reading Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children.

[Think]

I just finished by Bernard Beckett. For such a little book it was a heavy read. So, now I am reading by Christopher Moore. So far, it is cracking me up.

[Flora]

I've just gotten started on Dry Ice which has been pretty good so far. I'm also re-reading The Silmarillion

[Susanna]

I started Snow Angels by James Thompson. I thought I'd be excited to read a foreigner's pov of Finnish culture. At first, I was. But the first person POV is not really working for me; it makes me feel really detached. I'm almost halfway and I will probably finish the book but it isn't really grabbing me.

[Catherine]

I'm now about halfway through Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card for a Challenge in another group and am just starting To Kill a Mockingbird. I read TKaM years ago, but now I'm reading it because I'll be interning in an 11th grade American Lit class. This is one of the books they'll be reading. The rest of the month I'll be catching up on the rest of the books (material) they're reading this year, Brighton Beach Memoirs, The Color Purple, Into Thin Air, A Thousand Splendid Suns, and a couple of other books. Not bad reading for highschoolers!

[Karen M]

Just started The Seduction and Other Stories and should be into Shadow Song by tonight.

[John]

Working on The Last Dickens by Matthew Pearl, and Truman by David McCullough.

[Jennifer]

Been kinda absent lately-- dad just got put in hospice care and we just moved so things have been a little crazy. In the middle of it I found myself reading ten books simultaneously and not making a heck of a lot of progress on any of them. Finally finishing and/or making headway:

Divine Inspiration
Strapless
Waste
Separation Of Power
American Assassin
The Aloha Quilt
Stories I Only Tell My Friends: An Autobiography
Granville Barker Plays: One
The Scarlet Contessa: A Novel of the Italian Renaissance
Best American Plays Supplementary Volume 1918-1958

[Erin]

I'm just finishing up The Book Thief. Am I the last person in the world to read this? I have been really enjoying it and can't wait to see how it ends.

Prior to that I read Blood, Bones & Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef, which I thought was amazing until the final chapters. This would be a great one for a book club or discussion group! Has anyone else here read it?
