What are you reading?

I just finished FSoG and can't decide what I want to get into next.  I think I need a stand alone book because these series are so draining.  I have Moneyball on my kindle so I might try that.

Also, FSoG was, in my opinion, a steaming pile of crap.  So poorly written and the characters were just awful.  I have a compulsion though so once I started the series, I had to finish all 3 books.  What a mindnumbing waste of time.

Re: What are you reading?

  • Jess - I'm number 7 on the library list for Insurgent! Slowly getting there! 

    Right now I'm simultaneously reading Outlander and Baby-Led Weaning.

  • Jen I can't wait to hear your thoughts!  It took me a little while to remember who everyone was but it was pretty fast paced and I really enjoyed it.

    I just reserved How Did You Get This Number by Sloane Crosley.  I read I Was Told There'd Be Cake on my honeymoon and it was really funny.  I also have the audiobook of Stories I Only Tell My Friends by Rob Lowe but you can't download it on the mobile site and I can't download the software on my work computer so I have to wait to do that tonight.  I'm going to try to listen to it in the car.

  • I just finished Catching Fire last week and bought Mockingjay for my Kindle.  I am saving it for after I finish grading my exams and finalizing report cards...and the beach this weekend!

    Right now I am trying to finally finish up House Rules by Jodi Picoult.  I started it in the fall but kept putting it down to read stuff for book club.  I generally like her books but need to spread them out.  The plot starts to get predictable after a while, but I really enjoy the amount of research she does on each book topic.  I always feel like I learn something. 

    My SIL gave me Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, so I may read that after Mockingjay.  We'll see. 

    Is Divergent another YA sci-fi novel?  I am hearing a lot of chatter about it.

  • I'm reading Middlesex right now --- I'm really enjoying the story (it's the story of a hermaphrodite's greek family who come to live in Detroit in the 1950s). I didn't think I'd like it but I'm hooked.

  • I haven't been able to read as much as I would like lately. I'm part of the way into both American Gods and The Immoral Life of Henrietta Lacks....this has been my reading status for about the last two months. Embarrassed

  • Henrietta Lacks was a struggle for me to get through as well.  I mostly read it on my lunch break at work.  Took me 3 full weeks to get through.
  • I finished Shades a few weeks ago and started Dragon Tattoo again, just cant get into it though. Currently I have 107 people in front of me for Insurgent so I started a freebie I found on Amazon called A Week at the Beach. Not novel writing but entertaining enough

    It's not a struggle, I'm really enjoying it, it's just I have zero time to read.
