Happy Friday!! What are you reading?

jenndawnp · August 2013

I just finished EX Heroes this morning, it is #59 for the year, it was really awesome, zombies and superheroes!

I'm still listening to Under the Dome, it is #60, I like it but work hasn't been great for listening lately.

I'm reading, Seeing a Large Cat, it is #61 and I like so far.

ThisModernLove · August 2013

I'm reading And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini and I love it so, so much.

Also listening to Prisoner of Azkaban. I think they are #34 and #35 for the year.

jlc1979 · August 2013

I am reading The Husband List and Darkest Mercy. Neither are really grabbing yet.

TXAngela · August 2013

I'm reading "Lost For You" the 2nd book by B.J. Harvey. "Lost in Distraction" was the 1st. I really like it. It's pretty unbelievable, like most romances, but I like all of the character relationships. It's a good easy read.

I will be starting Gone Girl today, I need to pick up some Audio books, since I'm now back on chauffeur duty for school.

Whatever you do, do NOT get Bad Monkey on audio.

I am reading Willowleaf Lane by RaeAnne Thayne, which is a fluffy romance-novel-without-the-smut (aka "women's fiction") that is the fifth book of a series. People who liked the Fool's Gold series by Susan Mallery might like these as well. It's #83/100 for the year.

I am also reading Daring Greatly by Brene Brown. I love, love, love her, and her research on shame and vulnerability makes so much sense to me. This is her newest book, and so far it's great. It's #84 for the year.

I'm reading Chose the Wrong Guy, Gave Him the Wrong Finger. It isn't really holding my attention.

Hope it picks up. I just picked this up yesterday & I usually like her stuff.

About 80 % through Life After Life by Kate Atkinson. Fairly good. Excited to finish it today or tomorrow and tackle something else on my TBR list.

sweetrhythms · August 2013

I'm reading Surrender to Sultry! I also have Millie's Fling going on my kindle app. They're #s 52 and 53

UFCasey · August 2013

I'm reading "Shooting Scars" by Karina Halle (the sequel to "Sins and Needles"). So far so good!

I am not the best person to comment on Outlander but the audio put me to sleep.

booneybear · August 2013

I am going to finish Theodore Roosevelt: A Life by Nathan Miller today. It is a great bio.

I am also just a few pages into And the Mountains Echoed. I am reading it for my IRL bookclub and I have to admit I am dragging my feet because I was NOT a fan at all of The Kite Runner.

I'm listening to The Name of Wind - love, love, love it. I'm trying to decide if I should start the second one right away. Does anyone know when the third book is coming out? I don't want to look for fear of spoilers.

I'm reading Chose the Wrong Guy, Gave Him the Wrong Finger. It isn't really holding my attention.

Not for years.

I knew it! Every time I swear I won't start a new series until all the books are out - and every time I get sucked in.

The Redemption of Callie and Kayden. I'm not liking it as much as the first book

Dangit. I was looking forward to reading this!

BTW- there will be a third book in the series.

Yeah, seriously disappointed. I won't be reading the third book though I think it's supposed to focus on Luke instead.

I am finishing up Pretty in Plaid by Jen Lancaster. It's really funny but I am not enjoying it as much as I've enjoyed her earlier novels. I do like that it is an easy read.

Raeily · August 2013

I'm slowly moving along with Oscar and Lucinda by Peter Carey.

Lauren620 · August 2013

I am listening to Magic Bleeds by Ilona Andrews. It might be my favorite in the series so far.

I'm struggling with The Shadowy Horses by Susanna Kearsley. It's not bad, I'm just not interested in archeology so I don't find myself wanting to pick it up. It's my least favorite of her books that I have read.

I am reading The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness, and Murder. I'm not that far into it, but it's fascinating so far. It's # 19 for a goal of 25.

I just bought this. Let us know how you like it!

ToBeMrsT · August 2013

I'm about 70% in Wool Omnibus. I like it a lot.

Loved this book! It really surprised me how much I liked it.

I'm on BDB #3. It's number 45 of 50 for the year. I'm going to just be happy with exceeding my goal, though and not adjust it. This fall I'm taking 4 classes on top of working full time, so I'm not sure how much leisure reading I'll get in and I know if I set a new goal I'll be stressed about reaching it.

Ok, I will!

Im making progress on The Eye of the World and enjoy it so far. It really reminds me of The Belgariad series I read a couple of years ago. Its just for fun!

andypandy625 · August 2013

Club Dead by Charlaine Harris and Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank. Both are for SuBC.

Passanie · August 2013

Edit: Grr, I was trying to quote whoever was getting the Game of Thrones characters mixed up, but that doesn't seem to have happened and it won't let me delete.

Seriously! You know there's a cheat sheet of characters in the back of the book, right? I was so mad when I didn't figure this out until halfway through the first book.

kayash · August 2013

I'm re-reading the Outlander series - on Voyager right now.

And I downloaded Divergent tonight and will be starting that (finally).

booknerd226 · August 2013

I started Until There Was You by Kristan Higgins yesterday evening and I am already almost 3/4 of the way through it. It's pretty good, definitely a quick read. It will be #23 for the year.

Passanie · August 2013

I'm halfway through The Gift of Fear, only it was due back Thursday and now it won't let me renew online because I didn't renew it before it was due (even though I think nobody else is waiting for it). Darnit.

Happy Friday!! What are you reading?
