    deciding what to read next ...

    50 shades of grey, the hunger games, a John Grisham, or Tina Fey's autobiography ...
    50 shades of grey is definitely not light reading! I cant get into it, way too full on for me I'm afraid! I feel like a naughty little school boy getting caught reading dads magazines behind the sports shed!

    If you read the hunger games you'll finish them all in a few days and that will give you time to decide what to read next? Lol

    What are you reading right now? Come in and tell us!

    I have just started 50 Shades of Grey, I am hooked!! I will be reading the trilogy. The tension right from the start is amazing.

    I have just finished 50 Shades and have started the next one...

    Umm, I really don't understand the hype.

    I did realise I would make a shocking submissive however!

    With all Christian's *sit* *eat* etc I would have kicked him in his *shins* ....

    As well, as, welllllll I really don't like the thought of not being able to participate in certain recreational activities!

    0o0o0oh maybe a Dominant! ... I could see tying hubby up while I did nawty things to him! oh and blindfolding him! cause then, who cares if the lights are on!! w00t w00t

    I always knew you were one to watch Nikky!!! (in a completely non-voyeuristic way of course!) I've found it interesting the very different reviews the BB ladies have had of it - certainly makes me want to read it and see what all the fuss (or non-fuss) is about.

    I've done it. I've finished Shantaram. Fantastic book and really glad I persevered with it. Am now reading Lone Wolf by Jodi Picout - a Mother's Day pick from my girls. Very easy read and am already half way through so hopefully by tomorrow afternoon I'll be reading my first book on my kindle. Can't wait - just have to decide what to download first!

    bwahahahahahhahaha .. think we are more *vanilla* so not very exciting peeping thru our windows! (that word vanilla will have more meaning if you read 50 Shades )

    Shantaram was a massive book to read! But I really enjoyed it

    A book by Milly Johnson, great light read, and a bit of humour

    What are you reading? Girl with the dragon tattoo

    Who wrote it? Stieg larsson

    What is it about? A complicated girl helps investigate the murder/disappearance of Henrik Vangers family member

    Are you enjoying it? Only up to the introductions of all the characters, am 50 pages in. But seems interesting so far.

    I've just started 'War and Peace'- hoping to get it finished before the baby arrives

    I do love long books though, Shantaram was good, cos I read very quickly, so a long book is more satisfying for me.

    I am loving it, i was a bit wary as I read Dr zhivago last year and didn't like it so was worried it was going to be similar ( dont' know why just cos it was russian I guess).

    DH is threatening to get me a kindle, but I am so old fashioned when it comes to book. Although with the size of war and peace, it is tempting as my arm muscles get sore holding it in bed at night

    I've been plugging away at the A Song Of Ice And Fire series for the past couple of weeks. According to my Kindle, I'm 26% into A Feast For Crows

    Oh my LAWD is it good! The multiple storylines are so interesting - though I prefer some stories to others - and the characters are so well thought out! It's hard to believe he's actually making it up as he goes, which is what he's gone on record as saying. Apparently he has the ending in his head, but the journeys to that point aren't set in stone
