    Default What's everyone reading these days?

    I'm working on Stephen King's 'The Dome'...typical King, very long, descriptive, lots of characters....but very good. Started Duma Key a few years ago, couldn't finish it, but this one is holding my interest. Any good recent reads you'd like to share?

    It's not a book that holds my interest, but a magazine. It's called Backwoods Home and I love one of the feature writers: Jackie Clay...she is a veritable fountain of information.

    I get to start the latest J A Jance mystery tonight.......she is usually pretty good.

    Just finished Out To Pasture (but not over the hill)..........it was some fun reading...........84 year old author that writes (fiction) about all the characters in her 'retired living home'..........what a hoot. She lives in a 'home' in real life too.
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.

    I loved The Dome, The Omnivore's Dilemma, The Strain, and The Kite Runner!!

    Now I'm working my way through Dean Koontz's Frankenstein series. I'm on book 3 of 4.

    I liked The Dome as well. Right now am working on The Messenger. So far so good but I'm waiting too late to start reading at night and getting too tired before I get many pages read.

    Yah, I suck at this money stuff, I know. That's why I'm here.
