I wanna read Warm Bodies too but I can't seem to get it at the library.....

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. :)
I'm in the middle of Maisie Dobbs, which I am enjoying,
as well as Shoe Addicts Anonymous, which is just okay.

Over the weekend I finished The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield, which was absolutely wonderful!


I just finished Gone with the Wind yesterday, and wow what a good book!
This is definitely be added to my all-time favorites list. It was just an incredible book.
I also finished A Bend in the Road by Nicholas Sparks this morning. It was okay, but not my favorite NS book.

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.

This morning I started The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom. It's pretty good so far.
I'm still slowly getting through Outlander.

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.

This morning I finished up In the Still of the Night: The Strange Death of Ronda Reynolds and Her Mother's Unceasing Quest for the Truth by Ann Rule.
Since I've read a lot of True Crime lately, I decided to indulge in a guilty pleasure, and so I've started Yuletide Baby Surprise by Catherine Mann

I'm overwhelming myself with





I'm glad they are all different genres so it makes it easier
Oh my goodness, Trisha. I don't know how you do that all at once. When I get to three at one time, I start getting confused,. Lol
Yesterday I finished If Fried Chicken Could Fly by Paige Shelton, which as a very cute and funny cozy mystery.

I've started the audio of Firefly Lane (needed an insect on the cover, lol).
On my Kindle, I'm reading Addicted. Fair warning, this is not for everyone.

I am currently reading The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty
It is a very interesting book. Actually, I'm listening to the audio, and the narration is very good as well.

I am getting currently listening to Mortal Fear 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.
I'm very anxious to start my next chunkster - A Game of Thrones 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.

I am listening to The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón.
On Kindle, I'm reading Catch Your Breath by Shannyn Schroeder, which I won from Netgalley.
For my chunkster nighttime read, I'm working on A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin - I'm about 15% into it.
