What are you reading?

I just finished the first of the Harry Potter books.  I'm annoyed that I am 5/6 on the waitlist for the second haha.  And I started Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close but it hasn't piqued my interest yet.  I will have to give it another shot.

Re: What are you reading?

  • Moo, Baa, La La La  for the hundreth time.  I have it memorized.

  • I have tried to finish that twice and it just isn't doing it for me, I am just going to watch the movie.

    Just finished The Secret History for book club, it was blah. Also just read Beautiful Disaster in three days and enjoyed it.

    I really want to read Emily Griffins newest book, also have a few freebies on my kindle. Do you have anything that was good and is lendable?

  • I was just about to ask everyone this very question. I lurk on the nest book club board and I was reading through the amount of books they claim they read every month. I am just blown away. Some of them read more than a dozen books a month. I just don't have time for that much reading or maybe I just read too slow?  

     

    Anyway, in July I read On the Island. It was good but not great. I liked the story but I didn't think the writer needed to tell the story from the perspective of both main characters. The female character was stronger written and I think I would have enjoyed the story better from her perspective alone. Next I read The Knife of Never Letting Go. It ended with a very large cliff hanger but it didn't leave me wanting to run to pick up the next book right away. I liked it but I'll wait before starting the next one. Last week I started Outlander and I haven't been able to put it down. The first 8 or so chapters were slow but now I think I may be in love (with the leading male character, of course!) Sitting here at work is driving me nuts because all I want to do is go home to find out what happens next! My August book club book is The Perks of Being a Wallflower and September is A Tree Grows in Brooklyn so I hope to get those read while on vacation in Maine next week!

    I have all of them in hard-cover (most of them bought at midnight on the release dateWink) I'd be happy to lend them to you if you promised to return them!

  • NQ - I am on book 4 of the Outlander series (Drums of Autumn) and I seriously love it.  I actually look forward to my pumping sessions at work because that's when I read.

  • Beautiful Ruins, by Jess Walter. It's a good, light summer read. I don't think it's as amazing as all of the buzz I had heard about it though. Gone Girl is next on my list.
  • I am reading The Sixth Man by David Balducci.  I am a fan of his books.

    I have heard great reviews about Gone Girl.  Looks like that may be my first purchase on my kindle.

  • I'm reading Emily Giffin's new book right now. Just started it two nights ago. I also have Jennifer Weiner's Next Best Thing downloaded but I'm trying to hold off until vacation at the end of the month.

    Mix it up with some Perfect Piggies.  It's a song, it's a dance, it's a celebration.
