LOVE THIS THREAD!
thanks, MD and OP!!
have ordered the books ... so don't need new books right now, but if they're as good and as easy a read as everyone seems to say, I should be through them in a week or so, right? ;)
I have the urge to re-read The Forbidden Game trilogy, and the Bronze Horseman series too ... is it post-partum nostalgia, or am I just so tired that I want to read things I know well already, or are they just really really good books? I'm not sure ... but everytime I go to pick something new up, even if it's something I've really been looking forward to reading (like the Tina Fey book) I just put it down, and pick up something well worn and comfortable.
not that I've had much of a chance to read lately - I'm only getting 20 odd pages a day read, at best. I either have no time, no inclination, or I fall asleep after the first page because my poor little neurons are totally fried ...
so what am I reading tight now? subtitles on the telly, so I can have it on but very quietly while I feed DS2 ... that's what I'm reading these days!
Love Lee Childs! Read two of his recently :)
Ladies I just read "I came to say goodbye" by Caroline Overington. Completely sucked me in and I read it in like a day. (thank God for MILs!)
Can't quite figure out if it is based on a real event or not but it is wonderfully written, with a lovely narrative, intriguing characters and a twisting, gut-wrenching storyline. Warning: you'll need your tissues. Several times.
Great read. Highly recommended.
PN, you'll love The Hunger Games. For me, it got tothe point of "Hmm, bub is finally asleep! I should do the washing so I actually have underwear. Or I should catch up on sleep. But I wonder what Katniss is doing..." I neglected everything when I was reading those books lol.
I've just downloaded A Game Of Thrones. I wasn't convinced I'd like it but decided to give it a good. Hooked already!
Just finished the Hunger Games series - loved them! Had no plans of enjoying them or even of finishing the first book but thought I'd see what the hype was about! A week later and a house severely lacking tlc, I've finished them :)
So...what now? Suggestions please!
They were awesome weren't they Kels? LOVED the series :)
The girls here have put me onto Lee Childs....finished the first book and about to start the second! When Miss H and Miss Z LET me! grrr
Any new suggestions? Couldn't get into 50 shades of grey, a bit full on for my prudish liking, lol
Not sure what to read now...
The Help totally awesome finished it in 5 days!
Just started Eragon. Loving it.
OP I am almost finished no 2 in that series. I like it better as it goes on. I found the style of writing in Eragon a bit difficult at first. I have since found out the author started writing it at 16 or thereabouts, so that explains it. He improves :)
So many books to add to the list. I saw 50 shades of grey at the bookshop the other day & thought "Is that that porno book I've been hearing about on BB?" lol! I got my kindle a couple of weeks ago so that might be one for that :p The help sounds good too. I haven't seen the movie. Any advice on whether to read the book or see the movie first?
The help is a beautiful story. I always read the books before I see the movies :)
Currently reading the griffin's flight by k j Taylor (book 2 of the fallen moon trilogy). It's fantasy and not bad at all. Bk 1 is the dark griffin.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk so may be slightly confusing :)
I am getting a kindle touch for mothers day. I know I am because I ordered it myself! Should be arriving today but I'm not allowed to open it because it isn't mothers day. Cheezed off! I want to play with my new toy.
i am currently reading "the girl who played with fire" which is the second installment of the millenium series (first was "the girl with the dragon tattoo")
i am hooked!, and especially on the bio of the late author of the books... very intriguing
I'm reading "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu and "Communist Manifesto" by Karl Marx on my iPhone.
I'm reading "Change your shoes, change your life" at home.
I do need to get more books, but am trying not to purchase any at the moment, so will need to go to the library.
I thought the same thing, but it is actually a novel :) You should read Matilda is Missing & Ghost Child as well.:
Rowellen, book first. Always book first!!
LC - enjoy your touch, I've got one of them too! I adore it!
Still working through Eragon. Really enjoying it. If it gets better, can't wait :D
I just finished 'Before I Go to Sleep' by S.J. Watson - was very gripping and a good psychological thriller.
