I've been reading the Wedding Game by Fern Michaels, but I think it is a little far fetched for me.

My non fiction reads are Setting Things Straight and The Checklist, both about being healthy. One is from a natural health perspective, the other is an MD perspective. I am interested to see how they differ.

Plus, of course, the Goosebumps I read with ds.

I'm in the middle of The Truth, one of the novels in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. I'll keep working through the series, all the titles they have in the library. But I've started cross-stitching again, so have less time to read.

I'm reading a free online book called "Enniskerry". Looks pretty good.

M is for Malice by Sue Grafton

**Darlene** · 09-30-2007, 10:24 AM

I have the Prince Of Nothing series by R. Scott Bakker on deck.

**ellebee** · 09-30-2007, 10:41 AM

I just finished Still Life with Chickens: Starting over in a House by the Sea by Catherine Goldhammer. I loved this book - its the author's memior and its funny and a bit sad all rolled into one. I've also checked out from the library but have not read: Dockside-Susan Wiggs; Confessions of a Jane Austen Addict-Laurie Rigler;The Peabody Sisiters-Megan Marshall; and a ton of Christmas gift/food/decoration books - I love to look at these for ideas.

I'm still chugging through The Ha Ha by David King. I am hoping to have it finished by the end of the week so I can read something else.
I'm also listening to A Thousand Splendid Suns on audiobook via my ipod. This book I really like.

**endoux** · 10-01-2007, 02:00 AM

I've got a bunch of books going on all at once, but the one I just finished was called The Faith Club: A Muslim, A Christian, A Jew--Three Women Search For Understanding.

**baxjul** · 10-01-2007, 06:31 AM

I'm still working on the Janet Evanovich series ot Stephanie Plum. I'm on #8, I have all of them lined up to read, then will start her next series.

**Katybird** · 10-01-2007, 08:12 AM

I am reading Dream Country by Luanne Rice and the first of the Three Sisters trilogy by Nora Roberts, I can't remember the name of it and I am listening to the audio book of The Sweet Potato Queens First Big A$$ novel, it is hilarious, I love those sweet potato queens.

Lots of good reading going on, thats great. i looked up some of the titiles that you were all reading and posted in notes on the pc so later on I can go back and order the ones I want later in the libary. Thanks everyone. I like looking for new ideas ans seeing what others read and their impressions of what they read.

**tlenad** · 10-01-2007, 10:22 AM

Well this past month, I read my Management class text book. Blah. I've got to make more time for pleasure reading. Infact, I'm making a goal to read 2 non-school books this month.

Last month, I joined up at the library again for the first time in years. It's been great. So sometime this week, I'll stop in and pick up a couple of books.

**mcphlips** · 10-13-2007, 12:13 PM

I finally finished The Ha Ha..not as good as I thought.
Now I'm reading Sandstorm by James Rollins.. I really like it so far. Has anyone read it or any of his other books?
I'm also still listening to A Thousand Splendid Suns on audiobook.

My book club is going to read Water for Elephants next. Has anyone read this? Did you like it?
