This isn't world travel related, but I'm reading Stephen King's great memoir On Writing, which also provides interesting insight for readers.

Have you read any of his other series?
NUMA files with Dirk Pitt (his original character)
NUMA files with Kurt Austin (second generation)
Oregaon Files with Juan Cabrillo (my personal favoite)
I liked the Isaac Bell series.
Cussler also has a one or two more series going, but I've not read any of them.
I've noticed that any book co-authored with his son Dirk Cussler is an inferior read compared to any of his other co-writers. His son does not have his father's talent.

[Hannah]

I've just finished the book thief. I'm now reading Khaled Houssaini's new one, And the Mountains Echoed

[Sarah]

Started We Need to Talk About Kevin

[Sarah]

Started . It is soooo good so far. I had to start one of my group reads early because I have 7 group reads in June. But I wish I had waited on this one. This is going to be a good group read that hopefully will generate a lot of discussion, and I want to discuss now as I read. Also gonna read , , and either or

[Alana]

Some good selections there, Sarah :)

[Jennifer]

I just started "The Paris Wife." Next is The Kitchen House.
Sarah - are you still enjoying it??

[Sarah]

Just started . Trying to squeeze it in before June. Just finished . YES JENNIFER - I loved this book - it is my favorite read this year aside from . It is intense and heartwarming, more tragic though but the times were harsh. The author did her research. I found myself completely invested in the characters and completely frustrated at times due to the secrets and miscommunication that lead to disastrous events, but it really kept the pages turning. 5 stars.

[Sarah]

I should be trying to finish and/or but I find them both so boring. I can only do a little at a time in between more engrossing reads. I just want to finish Expectations in time for the movie release in October.

[Anoop]

On the moors of Great Britan with The Black Country
by Alex Grecian

[Ann]

Recently finished Escape From Camp 14 and am now reading The Orphan Master's Son, both for one of my "face to face" book clubs, where we read 2-3 related books each month. This time, obviously, North Korea is the subject. EFC14 is facinating and a quick read. TOMS is a much tougher read, but I'm about half way through and enjoying it more and more as I go along.
Am also reading The Road To Burgundy, a first reads book. Very pleasant, easy read.
