I just finished up Fingersmith by Sarah Waters, which was good, but I didn't think it as good as everyone was saying. Kind of like your book, Brianna, though I did enjoy mine somewhat.

I've started a couple of others, but I'm having a hard time getting into them, so I may have to lay them aside for now and move on to something else, although I don't know what.

I finished up Christmas Eve at Friday Harbor this morning, and it was a real disappointment. It seemed very, very rushed, and way under developed. I know I'm in the minority here, but there you have it. :)

Zone One by Colson Whitehead was very boring and made me feel stupid because of the way the author writes. I had no clue what he was saying and I had to read the same page a few times and still didn't understand what was going on. I think this is the only book that makes zombies boring

I started Outlander by Diana Gabaldon late last night.

This is actually a re-read for me. I read it several years ago, but needed a re-read to fit a challenge. It is also the BOM at one of my other groups.

I finished A Kiss at Midnight this morning, which I really, really liked (4 star read).

I'm currently in the middle of John Adams, which is really good as well. I've been on the Presidential kick lately, and I have to read some American History books for another challenge. Along those same lines, I also just finished up Washington: A Life a few days back, and it was very good as well. So, if anyone else gets on this kick, these are good books for the first two Presidents. They are tomes though, so just be prepared, or do the audio.

Riya, I'm also on an Agatha Christie kick right now, so I'm glad to see you reading And Then There Were None. I'm hoarding them though. Lol. It's like I don't want to just fly through them. I'm currently allowing myself one a month.

Next up, I'm not sure, but probably Aunt Dimity's Death and The Civil War, Vol. 2: Fredericksburg to Meridian.

Mortal Fear (Mississippi #1) by Greg Iles


Hopefully today sometime I will get to start A Nose for Justice by Rita Mae Brown on my Kindle, which is for a team challenge.
A Nose for Justice by Rita Mae Brown

I'm very anxious to start my next chunkster - A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin.
A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, #1) by George R.R. Martin

I really love reading a chapter or two each night before going to bed, and I usually choose a chunkster book to do that with. While it takes along time to get through it, I seem to be able to absorb it more that way. As I get older, I find it more and more difficult to remember what I've read.

What is everyone else reading.
