So what should I be reading??
DH bought me a Kindle for my birthday (even though its a month away, he wanted to buy me something before he left for OTS) and I have no idea what's even out there these days!
So far I know I want to read The Hunger Games series and The Help. ...other than that, I'm lost.
And if anyone wanted to also recommend a parenting book, that would probably be helpful since most days I have no idea what the heck I'm doing.
Re: So what should I be reading??
Do you like biographies? I read Elizabeth, the Queen last month and enjoyed it.
ETA: Tina Fey's biography Bossypants was hilarious and an easy read. I read it when Sophia was first born (aka when my brain was on vacation).
I read Bossypants and absolutely loved it. I have a major crush on Tina Fay though. Thanks for the other rec. I like biographies like that because I'm nosy haha.
I just finished reading "Divergent" and it was so great. It's a distopian novel, like The Hunger Games. (Which are also amazing.)
I haven't read many recent novels thanks to school.
Three Sister Island Trilogy by Nora Roberts,The Bride Quartet ( its 4 books to the series) also by Nora Roberts.
Anything Beverly Lewis- she writes about the Amish, all of her books are really great.
The Apothecary's Daughter- Julie Klassen
Embers of Love- Tracy Peterson ( Its the first in the series but I haven't read the rest)
Winter Garden- Kristen Hannah
Maid To Match- Deeanne Gist
Hope those give you some ideas!
I'm reading Wolf Gift, the new book by Anne Rice. It was a slow start but it's pretty good.
Next on my list is Divergent.
I got a kindle for Christmas and I just started using it. Woops.
I finished the Hunger Games series in like 48 hours. I loved it.
I just finished the latest in the Sookie Stackhouse Series. More of the same, but I love Sookie!
I'm probably going to read Bill O'Reilly's Killing Lincoln next. I've heard good things and I love history.
I also have gone back and read Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility and Little Women recently. There's a great Marilyn book called Marilyn Monroe by Barbara Leaming that I loved. I'm also a massive Marilyn fan though, so that might be why I liked it.
Loved loved loved Divergent.
Delirium by Lauren Oliver is another YA, dystopian fiction that is good. The second book in the series, Pandemonium came out a few days ago.
I wish I could figure out how to post my Goodreads shelf. I read an obscene amount of books.
