How do you like it so far? Is it for one of the challenges or just fun?

I can't believe there's only 3 weeks of summer left!! It went so fast

Happy Labor Day Weekend all!!

Still working on The Wise Man's Fear. I'm loving it, but just having a hard time finding time to read lately.

I'm still reading The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness and Murder. It's #19/25 for my goal for the year. I'm about 45% into it. It' s interesting.

I am reading Thirteen by Kelley Arnstrong i n prep for going to her signing next weekend.
I am also reading What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen.
No challenges. Not sure where i am for the year.

The last book in the Dulcie O'neil series by H P Mallory. I really have enjoyed this series. Not sure what i want to read next.

I am determined to finally finish Winter of the World this weekend. I'm listening to Where'd You Go, Bernadette. I'm enjoying it so far, about halfway through. Those are 58 and 59 for the year.

I'm reading Serena. I like it so far. It's a little slow moving but I feel like it will pick up at some point. #42

Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett.  I'm not too far into it but I'm liking it so far.  It is for SuBC.

I worked at that hospital in HR when this was all going on.  It was ... interesting.

I just finished The White Princess by Philippa Gregory.  I'm still working on Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare.

I'm about halfway through NOS4A2 and Named of the Dragon. Both are very good. #44 and 45

reading "The Girl You Left Behind".....LOVE it. I highly recommend it. 

re-reading "Wait for You" for the SuBC. Love this book. so ready for the sequel to come out!

listening to "The False Princess" just for fun. It's ok.....I am going to give it a little bit longer before I give up on it

jlc1979

I am reading The Hypnotist by Lars Kepler for my IRL book club.  I wasn't looking forward to it but I am actually really enjoying it.  I am also reading The Husband List by Janet Evanovich. I love JE books but I have to say I am not liking this one at all and it may even be my least favorite by her ever.

They are #69 and 70 for the year.

I'm listening to this one - I love it, but the audio is 42 hours long, so it'll be a while before I am done.  I am about three pages into Clockwork Prince, but I plan on gorging on reading this weekend.

Still working on Full Dark, No Stars (19).  I liked the first and second stories, but this third one isn't grabbing me.  I'm not that far into it yet, though, so we'll see.

I'm reading Bossypants. It started off strong, but now it's dragging a bit. Maybe I'm just not connecting with this section of the book because I'm not into theater. 

booneybear

I am reading And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini.  I am reading it for my IRL bookclub and struggling with it.  I was not a fan of The Kite Runner and I can't say I am a fan of this book either.  Hopefully I will have it read by Sept 4 for bookclub.

I am also reading The Titans (Kent Family Chronicles #5) by John Jakes.  I have this one going on my Kindle and have been reading it while I put in 45 minutes on the elliptical at the gym each morning.

They are books #52 and #53 for the year I believe.

Jealous!  I finished this series last month.  So much love for Elena et al!  

I am reading The Darkest Night by Gena Showalter.  It is the first of the Lords of the Underworld books and has been okay so far.  I think the series will pick up, so I'll keep reading. It will be somewhere around 150 for the year.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Loving it, I'm almost halfway in. It's #4/25 for the year.... I was in school the first part of the year, then moved so I didn't read much, which is why my goal is 25 this year.

AshleyT121

Reading: Bared to You by Sylvia Day. It's pretty good, but not great.

Listening to: Hot Ice by Nora Roberts. It's typical NR, so it's exactly what I wanted....though I'm not loving the narrator's voice. Actually that's not true, I LOVE her voice most of the time, just not the way she does the male lead.

Hoycie

Still working on Lexicon.

I finally finished A Gathering Storm!  I also finished Good Wives: Image and Reality in the Lives of Women in Northern New England, 1650-1750, which was ok but nothing revolutionary.  I've moved on to Dedication, by Emma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus (The Nanny Diary authors).  I'm only about 25 pages in but this should be a quick read.

lizabethann6

I'm re-reading (for the millionth time) the Harry Potter series while feeding the baby or up in the middle of the night. When she falls back asleep, I have to force myself to stop reading and go to bed so maybe I need to pick some different books lol.

dmlk413

I'm reading "Queen's Gambit" by Elizabeth Fremantle. I'm only a few pages in. It is #68 for the year.

packfan20

Still reading Stardust by Carla Stewart.

I just started listening to The Elite by Kiera Cass.  I don't remember the first book at all.

#s 69 and 70 for the year

Water for Elephants, its for the subc. I like it, it is so different from the movie and I like this story better then the movie story. TGIF!!!!

NestCayla

I FINALLY got around to picking up "The Happiness Project" -- it's kind of cool so far, I love her ideas on organization. I'm sure I'll have it finished by the end of the weekend (if only the weather would be nice then I could read outside!)

krispy83

I'm picking up Sea of Tranquility from the library this afternoon and I'm so excited to start it based on how much everyone here has loved it! (I know, I'm way behind on this one.. for some reason my library only had a couple of copies so I've been on the holds list FOREVER!

It will be 33/52.

I'm also thinking I will do a Harry Potter reread soon, based on some of the discussions this week.  It's been a while.

I finished up Seeing A Large Cat last night after my night terror, it is was #61 for the year. 

I just started The Ape Who Guards the Balance on audiobook, this morning at work it is #62.  I haven't decided what physical book I will start next, I'm leaning towards Horns.

minionlover

I started reading The Lying Game.  It's okay so far.  I think that I am about 25% done with it.  I just really want to finish a book this month.  I have been slacking big time.

Shepherdjel

I started The Host only about 20 pages in and I am more confused if anything, but I will be continuing.

I started and stopped reading The End of Your Life Book Club....I tried and just can't do it, right now anyway! Guess I won't be participating in this discussion :-(
