Re: What's everyone reading?

  • Currently reading Accidental Billionaires about facebook and Naturally thin.  Also listening to The Help at work and during my drives and it's been addicting!

    I can't wait to read Mockingjay, the last in the Hunger Games trilogy.

  • You actually reminded me I'm out of books on my Reader. Need to load a couple more before work tomorrow. Hmm, what to get?

    I really want to read Winds of War. I heard it's great.

  • I am reading "Eat Pray Love" right now, and so far I LOVE IT! I love Jodi Picoult books and Jen Lancaster (she is all memoirs, but she is one hilarious woman... I find myself laughing out loud a lot to myself when I read her books. I believe she has 4-5 out. I haven't read the last one yet though!).

     

    So far this summer I have also read "Gone Baby Gone" and "Mystic River" by Dennis Lehane. And "The Wedding" by Nicholas Sparks :)

  • I've just started The Friday Night Knitting Club" by Karen Jacobs. I'm only on the second chapter but I am really liking it.

    I'm also in the final chapters of "Not Without Peril" by Nicholas Howe. It's a fantastic book that chronicles the deaths and tragedies on Mt. Washington (hey, it's about NH!).  Despite the subject matter, it's not a dark book at all. I find the history and context fascinating, especially the background on the earliest events in the 1800s (discussions of period clothing and food supplies and road conditions, etc).The chapters are broken into separate events, so it's an easy book to pick up, read one chapter then put it down for a week.  I am finding the last chapters difficult because the events occurred only a  few years ago (relatively) so I'm finding I'm relating to the people more. I enjoy hiking and am familiar with the areas surrounding Mt. Washington, so I'm able to follow the locale descriptions pretty readily (and the book includes maps.) I really recommend it. 

  • I am reading Eat, Pray,Love also ! I really want to see the movie, but refuse until I read the book, almost there Big Smile

  • Let's see..

    I've read Eat,Pray, Love.  I liked that one.

    I've read The Wedding, that was cute.

    I'm a big Jodi Picoult fan.  I've read all her books.  My favorite it The Pact.

    I also like Barbara Kingsolver.  Both The Posionwood Bible and The Bean Trees are good.

    Another great book is She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb.

  • Reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.  I actually haven't seen or read Pride and Prejudice, but now I'm curious about how the story goes minus the undead, so maybe I'll read that next.

    Pride and Prejudice is my favorite book. I haven't read the zombie version though ;)

  • I just started The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I'm only a few pages in, and it's a little disjointed so far, but I have high hopes because I know so many people who have loved it. Hopefully I won't be disappointed!
