3. What is next on your to-read list? A Tale of Two Cities. I read it years ago and I had started rereading it but then DH got me Ender's Game for Christmas. I put it down figuring I'd finish Ender's Game in a few days and be right back to it. Then I got busy
Me too!!! Sparks is one of my all time favorite authors!
If you like him check out Marc Levy's translations (unless you happen to be fluent in French...in which case we should talk!!)...the movie Just Like Heaven, which came out a few years ago is based on his book Si, c'etait vrai (you can get the book (same name as the movie) in English as well).

I totally agree with this! HG & CF are two of my ALL TIME FAVORITE books!!!! Please come tell us how you liked them when you're done!!!
Cannot begin to express how much I loved those books... I read both of them in the span of a few days, during our parent-teacher conference week, no less (AKA the time when I have ZERO free time) - they were just that good. I am SO excited for August & Book 3 (which, by the way, is available on amazon for preorder for $8.50 right now)!!!
And although I do very little "fun" reading during the school year (esp with the commute this year - just not enough time in the day), I'll go ahead and answer the OP:
1. What book did you read last?
Book #2 of the Sookie Stackhouse series
2. What book(s) are you currently reading?
Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol
3. What is next on your to-read list?
Still working on the Sookie series & continuing on with the Outlander series... I have another 7 weeks of this grad class, and then I'm free from grad classes until next January (hooray for having a baby right before the fall semester and therefore skipping a fall class!). Hoping that since I'll *just* have work to handle starting in March, I'll have a little more time to read before the little one arrives!
... every single day of forever.

2. What book(s) are you currently reading? Firefly Lane by Kristen Hannah

Him!)
I don't post much, but I love polls, so I'm going to respond
1. What book did you read last? Wicked
2. What book(s) are you currently reading? Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (it's pretty funny!)
3. What is next on your to-read list? Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters
I just about died laughing when I saw these at Border's the last time I was there! I really want to read them but it's been so long since I read Pride and Prejudice or Sense and Sensibility that I feel like I need to reread them first. I'm glad to hear they're funny
Do IT!!!! How far into HG are you? I so wish I was reading them for the first time again. Such fantastic books. I can't wait for the 3rd book this summer!
OK, thought "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" and "Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monters" were 4 books total, not 2! I may have to look into them !
LOVED that book too!! I thought there was supposed to be a movie coming out about it, not sure what happened.
