What are you reading?
In need of something new!
Re: What are you reading?
Just finished the Paris Wife on Friday. It was fabulous.
Next up, is Friday Night Lights, the book that the series is based.
The Girl Who Fell From the Sky by Heidi Durrow. Am definitely enjoying it.
Also recently read The Glass Castle and Half Broke Horses - by Jeannette Walls - one is her memoir and the other what she calls a memoir of her grandmother - though it really is more of a biography, told from her grandmother's pont of view. Both are TOTALLY worth the time. Quick, engrossing reads. Her life is un-f*cking-real.
Also just finished Ann Patchett's State of Wonder - loved it (also read her Bel Canto - amazing!). State of Wonder was on everyone's Best of 2011 list (when I say "everyone" I mean all of NPR's critics bc that's all I listen to!).
OMG - I read Friday Night LIghts last Fall -- LOVED it! It was incredible. Also really timely, as you learn a lot about the oil industry, our dependence on the Middle East, and the Bush family.
Not a newbie, but, had to create a new account - formerly LBR_NJ
My Blog - "Helping Make Sense"
LOVED How to Talk to a Widower! I read another of his that I liked but I can't recall the name... I'll have to try Book of Joe.
I've been reading Steve Jobs since what feels like a decade, lol. It's good, but it's looooong and I'm getting kind of bored.
*always remembering Annaleigh Lucy*
I just finished Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. It was good, not great. I am looking for something not as heavy, so I'm leaning towards Ellen Degeneres, Seriously I'm Kidding.
The Wierd Sisters -- Eleanor Brown
finished One Summer by David Baldaci last week and that was really good.
Still Alice was awesome -- it's about this 50 yr old that gets diagnosed with early onset alzheimer's disease and her dealings with it as well as that of her family. Such a good read.
Loved this book!
