I'm reading Heartstone at the moment, think that's going to take awhile to get through so don't know what I'm going to try after that.
I am still working my way through Breaking Night: A Memoir and recently started Darkness, My Old Friend: A Novel.
I am reading The Welsh Girl by Peter Ho Davies, Dune by Frank Herbert for the book clubs and Scary Mary by S.A. Hunter on kindle, Only Revolutions by Mark Z. Danielewski my library book - this has to boe read front to back, back to front and upside down!
I'm thisclose to finished One for the Money by Janet Evanovich. Next I want something more sophisticated, so I'm thinking either The Psychopath Test: A Journey Through the Madness Industry, The Lonely Polygamist, or Dreamhunter. Decisions, decisions.
I just finished 22 Britannia Road, which turned out to be one of my favorites for the year. I am headed to the library in a bit to return it and hopefully find something equally good.
I am about to finish The Night Circus and it is fantastic! I don't want it to end, so I won't think about what I have next, but I also need to finish Gilead because I am leading the discussion about it in my Pulitzer Prize winers group.
Caroline, thanks for the reminder on Lonely Polygamist. I was really excited to read the reviews but the title slipped my mind!
Heather, I adored Gilead.My trip to the library was fruitful. I picked up A Bitter Truth: A Bess Crawford Mystery, and started reading it at dinner. It's great so far. I also got Flash and Bones. This series seems to be losing steam for me, but I am still willing to try the new installments.

As for me, I finished One for the Money last night and immediately began on a book I hadn't mentioned in this thread: The Hot Zone: A Terrifying True Story. I just was in the mood for something thrilling. So far I can't put it down and was up until midnight last night reading. *yawn*

*like* I'm going to start it on 1/1 for my bookclub on 1/9. Can't wait to hear what you think of it.

The Hot Zone was great!
I thought The Lonely Polygamist was good, but his first book, The Miracle Life of Edgar Mint is one of my all time favorites. I'd highly recommend it.

That DOES look very good. I added it to my to-read.
Glad to hear good things about Cutting for Stone, it's on my Christmas list:-) I'm reading A Spot of Bother this week and loving it!!
