Most heavily read books on NBC right now?

I've been MIA lately with summer and my two kids bored at all hours of the day, swimming, etc. Found myself knocked up (we're thrilled) and the kids in school, so between extra hours in my day and feeling "blah", I picked up my books once again and it feels great! I was just wondering what the popular books are lately around here. I am a big fan of Divergent, HG, HP, Sookie, Outlander, TTW, The Maze Runner, Nicholas Sparks (some of them if they look good), etc etc. Thanks! My name used to be Husker*Mama I believe and some of you may be my friend on fb so please no outing me being pregnant lol. Young_Love that's for you!

Re: Most heavily read books on NBC right now?

  • Welcome back and congrats!! Me Before You by Jojo Moyes and The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay have been my favorite books this year.  They are both amazing.

  • I remember you! Congrats on the pregnancy. I'm so out of the loop when it comes to what's popular right now but I agree with Lauren on The Sea of Tranquility.

  • Thanks ladies! I didn't know if you'd remember me or not! Keeping a pregnancy a secret (especially in a small town when you feel icky and you constantly think your MIL is looking at you funny) is hard! 5 more weeks.... unless I suddenly show early being my third! Eek Thanks for the rec's I'll add them to my list!

  • If you enjoy some young adult, I think you'll love "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" by Laini Taylor and "Shadow and Bone" by Leigh Bardugo.  Both have sequels.  Laini Taylor's writing is positively excellent. I also read "Blood Red Road" by Moira Young recently, and after I recovered from the style she uses to write in dialect, I enjoyed it. 

    But if you only pick up one, "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" is a must read IMO.

    It seems like there are a few newly pregnant nesties on here.

    I'd suggest The Raven Boys.
