What's everyone reading?
« on: February 16, 2013, 09:45:51 AM »

What are you currently reading (non-fanfic) and is it something you'd recommend, or are you struggling to just get through it?

I'm currently reading Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion.  I'm only on page 53 but am enjoying it so far, but think any zombie lover would enjoy it :)

Just like everything else in my life currently, I am in a reading funk as well. There are a few books I want to read but haven't yet, like the new Mitch Albom book and am looking forward to the new books by Jodi Picoult and Dan Brown. I think Stephen King has a new one coming out soon as wel.

I wonder what Stephen King's new one will be like.  I still think 11.22.63 is one of the best, if not the best book I've ever read!

I am currently reading Fablehaven: Keys to the Demon Prison... it's the 5th in the series ..it's a YA series.  I like the plots and they are exciting to read, at least for me :p

Also, I am reading Nowhere to Run which is alright so far but I'm only 1/4 of the way through.

I have started Guilty Wives as well, by Patterson, and I'm not too far into it because it's a different style I'm having a hard time getting into it so it might be on my "not finished" list.

I've been reading The Walking Dead comics.  Almost caught up with those.  When I finish, I have a few children's books I bought for my classroom library and want to read before I take to school, and I also have a Mary Higgins Clark novel that I got for Christmas from my Secret Santa that I should check out.  They're all just piled up waiting for me; I've been reading these comics for weeks!

I have 3 Mary Higgins Clark books on my nightstand to red.  I went overboard on my reservations at the library and the holds came in faster than I expected.

I loved the FableHaven series, YA fantasy that takes place in the modern world.  Loved it! 

I am still reading Nowhere to Run, my kindle books tend to not get read unless I'm at work.  I am 100 pages into Guilty Wives.  It is alright but I am still not sure.  The next section is about the trial and I don't want to read all of that I want to get to the part where the main woman gets redeemed and the bad guy gets the shit kicked out of him! LOL

I'm now reading Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks, I've read quite a few of his books and love them.

I really need to read a book or write or both. All I've been doing in my spare time is watching things on Netflix and playing Angry Birds Star Wars edition. My brain is slowing down to drool stage! lol

LOL I've also been watching far too much TV (Merlin).  I'm crap at Angry Birds though, can only manage a few levels and then can't get any further.
