I'm in the market for a new book to read. Any suggestions? What are you all reading?
Re: Book suggestions
Good question!
I recently finished A Discovery of Witches and then reread The Time Traveler's Wife and HAVE to find something new- Now since we aren't doing wedding stuff on the weekend, H has been playing a lot of video games (anyone else out there a Diablo widow??) and I need something to keep me occupied
Time Traveler's is a good book as mentioned above. I am also really enjoying a series by Allie Condle (spelling?) where the first book is called Matched. But here is a really great site that may help you find something exactly to your liking--http://whatshouldireadnext.com/
Also--depending on your tastes--another book called Room is an amazing read. However, it can be a little sad. But it is very well written
Also--I'm an English teacher and here is some from my book lists. (Some may be younger--young adult lit, but I love these books as an adult)
Happy reading!
Also--Karen Kingsbury is an amazing author--but she is a Christian writer for anyone who may shy away from religious filled text. I love her though.
Oops--here's the link to my book list--

I'm reading "Dreams of Joy" which is the follow up book to "Shanghai Girls" both by Lisa See. I really liked the first one and the second isn't bad so far.
Then I have to start my next book for book club, which is ?An Invisible Thread: The True Story of an 11-Year-Old Panhandler, a Busy Sales Executive, and an Unlikely Meeting with Destiny" by Laura Schroff
The Hunger Games Series
Heaven Is For Real
Pretty Little Liars Series
DianaL616--try the Matched series...
If you liked Hunger Games--you'll love Matched!

What genres do you typically like? Tell us a few examples of books that you have liked and we'll probably be able to give better recommendations!
One website I love is GoodReads - keeps tracks of all the books you've read and can give you suggestions based on what you liked/didn't like so much. It's how I find new books since I devour them at a fast rate =]
If anyone else is on there and wants to be friends, here is my link:

I'm reading the 50 shades of grey books, I'm already almost done with the second book.
H refers to them as my porno books, but they're really good!!!

Next two on my list! I'm in cheap paperback mode right now though because of being on the beach on HM and in the backyard pool now at home. My current book is The Island by Elin Hilderbrand. I thought it was going to be complete fluff, but I am really enjoying it!
I'm reading the grey series and it is girls porn hahaha! Some pages I have to skip because it gets really intense but I like the storyline and characters!
