Happy First Friday of Spring!! What are you reading?

alithebride · March 2014

How do you like it so far? Is it for any of the challenges? Since today is the first full day of spring- how's the weather where you are today?

ChristyDM82 · March 2014

Last night I started A Walk in the Park by Jill Mansell. Too soon to tell how I like it. It's #21 for my yearly goal.

Today it's cold right now (20s) but is supposed to get to 50 degrees today.

WillyH19 · March 2014

I'm reading The Golem and the Jinni. I'm about 35% done. This is #25 for the year.

The weather should get up to about 60 here today, I love spring and warmer weather!

duxcaelo · March 2014

I am reading Drums of Autumn and Sugar, Salt, Fat. I like the first and the second is really interesting. They are somewhere around 48 for the year.

I am hoping we make it to the 50s. I am so ready for some warmer weather.

jenndawnp · March 2014

I'm still reading Children of the Storm, it is # 39 for the year, it's good but I just haven't had time to read it and I really haven't been in the mood for it. I'm reading some smut next.

I'm listening to The Enchantress, it is #40 for the year, I'm not very far in but it's enjoyable so far.

MrsJenE · March 2014

Still working on The Fiery Cross. This is such a long one to get through. I think it's #24 for the year.

I heard snow in the forecast for next week. I'm pretending that didn't happen.

packfan20 · March 2014

Moonlight Masquerade by Ruth Axtell. Historical/regency fiction. It's okay. A lot of political talk.

#34 for the year.

It's supposed to be 60 and sunny! That means we're going swimming! (J/k). Snow and 30s next week so...you know...

RevJen · March 2014

I'm listening to The Masterharper of Pern by Anne McCaffrey, reading A Reckless Witch by Debora Geary on Kindle, and All the Weyrs of Pern by Anne McCaffrey. I was in a dragon kind of mood.

All of these I've read before.

jlc1979 · March 2014

I am hoping to finish Lover Avenged today. I'm loving it so far and can't wait to see how it ends. I'm also reading Blue Dahlia. I'm not very far into it yet but I love all NR books and I can't imagine this one being any different.

Weather wise it is crappy here today. It had been warming up finally but it dropped back down to -33C with the wind again today! Yuck, I just want spring already!

ZeusLBA · March 2014

I'm reading Just One Day by Gayle Forman. I'm liking it so far about 56% done so I'll probably close to finish it this weekend. It's number 11 for the year.

It's 37 here now but supposed to go out to 50 but then cold and snow next week.

booneybear · March 2014

I finally finished The Harding Era!!!!!!!!! Whoohoo

Now I am finishing up with We, the Drowned by Carsten Jensen. I love the writing in this book and am sad to see it come to an end.

I also just started The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt. I am barely into it so I don't have an opinion just yet.

These are books 34 and 35 for the year.

julie37619 · March 2014

History Decoded, about various historical conspiracy theories. It's decent. Number 26 for the year.

Shepherdjel · March 2014

Still reading The Truth About Forever and loving it!
Started listening to Wintergirls and surprisingly so I am loving it (I am only about 15% in)!
10 & 11 for the year

SusieBW · March 2014

I'm reading The Wolf of Wall Street. It's entertaining, but the writing is atrocious and the author is an asshole. I keep saying I'll give it one more day, one more day, one more day, so we'll see how much longer it lasts. I'm almost half through now.

I'm listening to Doctor Sleep. I'm on disc 3/15, and still struggling to get into it. It just hasn't grabbed me like I was hoping it would. I have no intention of quitting on it or anything so drastic as that, but I'm hoping it picks up.

These are numbers 15 and 16 for the year. No challenges or goals this year.

krispy83 · March 2014

I'm reading To Kill a Mockingbird for the first time ever and really enjoying it. It's 14/52 for the year.

It's been 75-80 and gorgeous here all week. I think it's supposed to be about 65 today but warm back up by Monday, though I know for most of you right now, 65 is shorts and tank top weather.

Hoycie · March 2014

Thr3e by Ted Dekker- I have this feeling that the author is trying to be on Dean Koontz's level, but is falling short. The story isn't awful, but I'm definitely not at the edge of my seat yearning for more.

CeeCeeSugaPie · March 2014

I am finally reading The Dream Thieves. I held off because I have a signed copy and didn't want to mess it up. Dumb, I know. I love it so far. I think everything she writes (well, maybe not the Fever series) is amazing.

fabk · March 2014

Listening to a Storm of Swords and Gilded. Reading Whatever It Takes by Bella Andre. All are good.

The sun is out here but the temp is at freezing. Its supposed to snow tomorrow.

I'm still pissed about Ch. 5. grr

sweetc129 · March 2014

Reading: The Secret Life of CeeCee Wilkes

Listening: 22 Britannia Road

It is like 30 outside now, but a high of 52 I think. Snow in the forecast for early next week .

Lauren620 · March 2014

I'm about 50 pages into James Madison by Richard Brookhiser. It's for the presidential challenge and I really like it so far.

The weather is absolutely perfect! It is 58 and sunny right now and the high for the day is 75.

How are you liking this? I remember reading it quite a while ago and really enjoying it. It is actually where I got part of my SN from. I had also read Saving CeeCee Honeycutt around the same time.

ETA: Not that I identified with or necessarily admired either of the MCs, I just had the name CeeCee on the brain.

Adjudi-Kate · March 2014

Listening to A Stolen Life: A Memoir by Jaycee Dugard. The first half was hard to read because it was horrible and terrfying what she went through.

Just started Secrets of a Summer Night by Lisa Kleypas.

84Lauren · March 2014

I'm about 3/4 of the way through The Fiery Cross. While parts of it are much more enjoyable this time around, there is some definite slogging. I'm about to hit the roller-coaster ride towards the end though!

sweetrhythms · March 2014

I'm STILL reading the Count of Monte Cristo. I have put it down and picked it up a few times and it is getting good again so I'm hoping to make a lot of progress but I'm only a little more than halfway through. SUCH A LONG BOOK.

dmlk413 · March 2014

I'm reading 'Serpents in the Garden' by Anna Belfrage and I really like it. It's #17 for the year.

It's supposed to get to 65 here today.

Slogging is a good word. But then ABOSAA is batshitcrazy.

sfgiantsjo · March 2014

I'm reading Gilded by Christina Farley. I'm not very far into it yet, and so far it's "meh". I'm alittle annoyed at the Asian cliche's being thrown around. I was happy to see an Asian MC, but it feels forced and trite. Maybe it will get better. #17 of 60 for the year.

The weather here is gorgeous. Mid 70's and sunshine. We really, REALLY need rain, but it's hard to complain when it is so perfect outside.

RiverPlate · March 2014

I just finished The Summer I turned Pretty by Jenny Han and have finally gotten to a point in The Hollow City by Ransom Riggs where I'm fully into the story.

It's nice today, supposed to be in the 70's tomorrow, then back into the low 40's for Sunday.
