Re: Happy Friday!! What are you reading?

  • I'm finishing up The Coldest Girl in Coldtown. I'm really enjoying it.
  • I'm reading And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Housseini and  enjoying it so far. I am listening to Room. I had previously tried to read it, but had a hard time getting into it. I'm really enjoying the audio book version. These are 62 and 63 for the year. My goal is 75.

  • I just started Dan Brown's Inferno last night.  So far I'm really enjoying it. I'm not sure what number it is for the year, but I'm pretty close to reaching my goal.  I might have to up it some. 
  • I finished up Surrender to Sultry (21) yesterday and I'll be picking up Warm Bodies (22) either tonight or tomorrow.

  • @willyh19 I thought the audio of Room was really well done!

  • I'm listening to Shiver and reading Blue Bloods.  I  think it's #32 and #33 for the year.

  • I am listening to The Fault in Our Stars.  I've already read it, so I know what is coming.  I'm loving the audio and really nervous at the same time.

    I started reading Mind Games for PNR, but I am not that far into it.  I'm going to my mom's tonight, and she has the new JD Robb for me.

  • I'm reading Wonder I can't remember what number it is for the year. It's a wonderful book just really makes me remember how terrible Jr High kids can be.

  • Dark Places by Gillian Flynn.  It's dark and disturbing but I am enjoying it so far.  She's very skilled at writing unpleasant characters while maintaining the reader's interest.

  • I'm reading 1984...still and I'll start listening to Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain after it finishes downloading.  He reads it himself so I'm pumped as I think he's awesome.

  • I'm reading Band of Brothers. The story of the 101st airborne division which dropped (paratroopers) on Normandy. I talked to my dad last night about it and he asked for a recommendation. This would be right up his alley and, of course, he had already read it, but he told me my grandpa was in the 101st! He was part of the Battle of the Bulge! Wow! Things I never knew. I wish I could talk to him about it (he died in 2002).

    It's an amazing story so far. I love the writing. It doesn't seem like a school history book, which is something I worry about when I pick up non-fiction books. It's written like a story. Love it!  :)

  • I'm listening to Life After Life by Kate Atkinson.  It took a little while to get used to it on audio but now that I've got the gist of it I'm liking it,

    I'm reading Fixing Delilah by Sarah Ockles.  It's not bad but it's not good either.  It's taking me forever to finish.  I read another Sarah Ockles book before this one and did not love it either.  I have 2 more of her books that I think I'll set to the side for now.

  • I have about 50 pages left in The Swan Thieves.  I LOVE Elizabeth Kostova's writing.  And I am really enjoying this book

    I started The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith this morning at the gym and got about 33% of it read.  I wanted to start Dr. Sleep but when I got to the gym I realized that I forgot to download it onto my kindle app prior to leaving the house and I only have wi-fi on my ipad so I wasn't able to download it at the gym so I had to start something else instead so I decided on TSPoLaFS because it will be a quick read and I can get to Dr. Sleep right after.

    I am finishing up War of the Worlds (hopefully) today. It is for the SuBC. I finished the Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo yesterday, also for the challenge. I want to break 100 pts on the challenge before it ends!

  • I'm not technically reading anything at the moment.  I finished the Edge of Never last night and I plan on starting to read Linger and possibly The Coincidence of Callie and Kayden.
