[Kimberly]

I second that recommendation!

[Tami]

Finished Shiver and Linger and am starting American Psycho.

[Emily]

I just finished Girl with a Pearl Earring. It was really bad. I'll have a review up probably tomorrow. I would write it now, but my carpel tunnel is acting up like crazy today for some reason.

[Edina]

I'm reading Mockingjay, and loving it. :)

[R]

Thank for recommending The Bloody Chamber, guys. I'll definitely check it out sometime soon.

I've just started reading The Third Policeman by Flann O'Brien. I haven't really read enough of it to form much of an opinion yet though. (i.e. I've read two pages.)

[Jane]

I'm currently reading People of the Book by Geraldine Brooks, but hoping to re-read Little Women by Louisa May Alcott asap so that I can join in the discussion. :)

[Danya]

I just finished The Grimm Legacy by Polly Shulman, and next up is probably Losing Faith by Denise Jaden.

[Emily]

I'm currently reading Kindred by Octavia Butler, and it is amazing so far. I'm just zipping right through it!

[Tara]

I feel like I'm reading a million things.

I'm trying to finish the Chronicles of Narnia.
I'm reading Pride and Prejudice.
I'm rereading A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin.
I'm carrying around a few books in desperation to read them, and I'm reading class books. None of these have been finished... I feel like such a bad reader.

[Janet]

I just finished The Lost Symbol. It was ok. Not my favorite and it took me forever to finish because I just kept getting bored with it. I am not reading The Hunger Games. I like it so far.

[ayanami]

I started Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman yesterday. I've never read any of Pratchett's books (apparently he's very funny) but I'm a huge fan of Gaiman's Sandman comics, and I've heard many rave reviews about Good Omens so I have high hopes for this book!

[Janet]

Oops...I meant to put I am NOW reading The Hunger Games...not NOT reading it. Haha.

[Tami]

Almost finished with American Psycho, then will pick up latest giveaways win: An Irish Country Courtship.

[Daisy]

I finished Tender Morsels yesterday and am now reading Manifest, I tried reading 1: The Intern, but I couldn't get into it and have now finally been able to not finish a book (hooray, less hours wasted).

Emily wrote: "I am still trying to finish Little Women. I will prevail!

I finally finished Little Women about three days ago after reading it for three months on and off with a whole bunch of books in between. I really ended up loving it! It went straight up to my favorites list. Hopefully, you get through it and enjoy it.

[Lauren]

Just finished another Jodi Picoult book... The Pact and I didn't really like it. It was extremely predictable, the ending sucked, but I still like Picoult, so now I'm reading Vanishing Acts. Haha.

[Daisy]

Lauren - lol, very brave of you to keep reading her books after not liking one! I still have My Sister's Keeper on my shelf, waiting to finally be read..

I finished Manifest last night and am not onto The Mermaid's Mirror.

[Tami]

I finished American Psycho late last night. Sort of disappointed. Wanted a creepy book and what did creep me out wasn't the parts that were supposed to. Oh well, now on to An Irish Country Courtship.

[Heather]

Lauren & Daisy- I actually just started My Sister's Keeper yesterday and so far am really enjoying it at about 100 pages in. The only other Picoult I've read was The Pact, which I liked overall. Her writing style allows for a fast read despite the size of the books, although I agree that the ending of The Pact was a disappointment.

[Daisy]

Heather - I'm glad you're enjoying it! I should really get to it, but there are so many other shiny books that need my attention.. :)

[Daisy]

I just finished The Mermaid's Mirror and really liked it!
I'm starting It Started with a Dare now.

[Meg]

I'm working on Angels of Destruction: A Novel and I'm really, really enjoying it... but it's taking me forever to get through, and only because I have no free time anymore.

Is this semester kicking anyone else's butt, or just mine?

[Lauren]

I changed my mind.. I didn't start Vanishing Acts, instead I'm reading Second Glance :)

[~*I love Tea*~]

I am reading Spy Glass

[Kimberly]

Annabel ~*I love Tea*~ wrote: "I am reading Spy Glass"

I loved Spy Glass!

[Sashana]

I'm reading Water for Elephants.

[Alicia]

I picked up City of Glass, the third young adult novel in a series. It's driving me nuts, because it is so engaging, but I always have to put it down to do other things!

[Daisy]

I finished It Started with a Dare earlier and have started Rebecca, which I hope to love.

[Chantal]

I'm working my way through the Harry Potter series again, and am on Half-Blood Prince.

Question: How do you make the book title a link?

[Kelly A.]

I am rereading Harry Potter too! I am only on the Goblet of Fire.

To make the book a link, click 'add book/author' which is right above the comment box.

[Chantal]

Okay thanks!

[Kelly]

I just finished The Catcher in the Rye, and didn't really care for it. I thought it was boring, and the story didn't really go anywhere. I'm going to readSex with the Queen next.

[Janet]

I just finished The Hunger Games. It was really awesome. I really enjoyed it! Now I am reading A Reliable Wife. I heard it's good from another person but I haven't heard much else! I hope it's good!

That's funny Kelly because my sister read The Catcher in the Rye just recently and really didn't like it either. I read it when I was in high school and have talked to a lot of other people and we all agree it might be a book to read in high school or before. If that makes any sense. I think it just reaches out to them more than adults. I'm sorry you didn't like it though! I don't think you're alone! Haha.

I loved Spy Glass!"

I loved it as well! The ending was very surprising not the one I thought I would get but I like to be surprised.

[Anika]

Well, I haven't been one here in a while, but I recently reread the Gemma Doyle trilogy, which I enjoyed for the most part. I also just started reading The Hunger Games, thanks to the praise everyone here has given it... I couldn't help buying my own copy so I could see for myself what all the hype is about! I'm also reading a bunch of stuff for school: Huck Finn (which I've read before and love!), some short stories and poems, The Old Testament, and The Odyssey and The Iliad.

No, you can consider my butt kicked as well. I feel like I never have time for reading anymore!

Luckily I had a break this weekend and I finished Little Black Book of Stories, which was a pretty good collection of short stories, and The Haunting of Hill House, which was very strange and surreal.

I'm currently reading The Good Daughters: A Novel, which I won on a blog giveaway, and Cassandra Rising, which is an anthology of science-fiction short stories written by women. The first story in it, by Ursula K. Le Guin, is really good!

Next on the list is Their Eyes Were Watching God, in honor of banned books week, and The Art of Devotion, which I just ordered from paperbackswap.

[Sashana]

I just finished Water for Elephants and I'm going to start Lament: The Faerie Queen's Deception next.

[Alicia]

Just finished Nicholas Sparks's new novel Safe Haven. Time and time again, I wonder why I read his novels, but every time he puts a new one out, I read it. This one actually turned out pretty good. Definitly an improvement over his last few, in my opinion.

[Daisy]

I finished Rebecca last night and it was so amazing! The plot twists were so good!
I'm going to start Halo next, I've heard so many people rave about it and the cover is just beautiful.

Consider mine kicked too! I don't know what my deal is, but I just can get on top of things and stay on top.

[Lori]

Snickers! I've missed you!

[Lori]

I hear ya! The shower is a wonderful place to think through life's problems. I should take a tape recorder in there so I can record any brilliant ideas I have or things that I remember.

My butt is kicked too. This is the first time I've really been on Goodreads since summer. And I don't even really have the time to be on here right now, I'm just procrastinating because I've missed you all!

[Janet]

Oh Alicia I am glad to hear that this ones is better. I am with you! I love Nicolas Sparks but his last few have been awful!! I'll have to look into this new one!

[Jamie (The Perpetual Page-Turner), The Founding Bookworm]

I'm reading Everything Is Going to Be Great: An Underfunded and Overexposed European Grand Tour. It's pretty funny though kind of vulgar at some points. It's like a mesh of David Sedaris and Chelsea Handler. At least that's the vibe I'm getting so far!

[Jen]

I started reading Speak a couple days ago. I'm not too far into yet but I do like it so far. Last last night I finished Amy & Roger's Epic Detour. I loved it!!

[Jamie (The Perpetual Page-Turner), The Founding Bookworm]

Jen--I've been wanting to read Amy & Roger's Epic Detour!!

[Jen]

Jamie, I think you would really like it! It's about a road trip and some of the pages are made to look like a scrapbook/travel journal. Plus, there are like seven or eight different play-lists that one of the characters makes so I have lots of music to look up this weekend.

[Jamie (The Perpetual Page-Turner), The Founding Bookworm]

Ok, you had me at road trip and travel journal! lol I need to get my hands on this!

[Jess]

My personal reading time has taken a serious drop lately, between work, grad school, and boyfriend. :( However, I'm almost done with The Official Preppy Handbook, which is a hilarious manual for anyone who's interested in preppy living. I'm about to start Julia Glass' Three Junes too.
