I swear we should try for an actual book club or something!
I've been reading a ton of Nora Roberts books as I think I mentioned last time. I am letting my cheesy romance novel freak flag fly!
I just finished Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris. He is absolutely hilarious. I am anxious to read more of his books!
I just restarted How Did You Get This Number by Sloane Crosley.
Re: What are you reading?
Articles about the differential use of self as a tool in therapy.

I love David Sedaris!!
I'm reading "This little piggy went to the liquor store" - some of its hilarious and then other times i'm bored.
My little nuggets
Is that a children's book? If so, I want a copy.
haha no...its an adult book!
My little nuggets
I am on page 2 of Gone Girl.
We should do a book club for the board - that would be fun (assuming people actually partake)!
Also slowly working through Ina May.
In the middle of the Uglies series by Scott Westerfeld. I'm a sucker for teenage fiction.
I just finished Gone Girl last week. Not crazy about the ending, but I did enjoy the book. I'm on the e-book waiting list at the library for her other books.
This week, I started The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, but I'm having very strong deja vu. I borrowed the first 2 from my sister, and never got around to trading them back for the 3rd one. There's a strong chance I at leasted started the 3rd one...I have a vauge memory of finding it posted online and me having a slow day at work ....
. I'm reading it on my Kindle via the library.
And I'm also listening to the Friday Night Knitting club on my drive to/from work. Makes the commute go by faster. I also borrowed it from the library.
I'm reading Lets Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson
http://www.amazon.com/Lets-Pretend-This-Never-Happened/dp/0399159010
I haven't started it yet but I have this on loan from the library right now in audio format.
I just started it last night and fell asleep pretty quick so I've barely started it but her blog cracks me up so I have high hopes for this book!
Before that I read Something Blue by Emily Griffin when I was in the hospital. I loved Something Borrowed so I ripped right through that and enjoyed it.
Recently I've read Reflected in You by Sylvia Day (kind of fifty shades-ish), A Good and Useful Hurt by Aric Davis (I enjoyed this, about tattooing ashes of loved ones on you...weird I know), and The Hangman's Daughter by Oliver Potzsch which I also really enjoyed and I'm looking forward to reading The Dark Monk buy him as well.
I just started Raising Your Spirited Child, not very exciting but it is helping with my urge to strangle (not really for all you people that want to report me to Child Services) a certain little being in our household.
Also just decided on Gone Girl for our book club revival, is it lendable on the kindle?
