I just finished a great juicy bonkbuster A Kept Woman... very fun and salacious.

sis · 02-15-2014, 11:17 PM

I'm in a race with myself to finish reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho by next Friday which is when the monthly meeting of the Guangzhou Foreign Book Club meets to discuss this book. Actually, I'm thinking that as I started it during late December I should start reading it from the beginning. Its not an easy genre for me to read BUT I'm learning a lot about me and where I'm at in life.

I didn't like it. I loved A Suitable Boy. I read that he has written a sequel called A Suitable Girl, I think. Not released yet. He's still editing. I hate it when a writer you like takes years and years to write a book.

I am reading The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements. So far, it's entertaining.

The Walking Dead, Vol. 1 (1-6 issues) a graphic novel by Robert Kirkman

Strangely, for me, this is a really good read.

EmJay · 02-17-2014, 02:06 PM

I haven't opened a book in so long but seeing this thread really makes me want to start a new book. I love reading, it puts me in my own element and relaxes me

a great way to end my evening too. *wanders over to my bookshelf*

I picked this book up after seeing this author interviewed. She's a wonderful storyteller. I've only read one of the stories so far but it is fascinating. I'm going to work on finishing this up.

JAGG · 02-24-2014, 07:01 AM

A book called "Life after life."

mythy · 03-17-2014, 10:29 AM

I am reading Innocence by Dean Koontz

and his Odd Thomas books are cracking also especially with a nice cuppa

The Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling

No Harry Potter anywhere near this book. Reviewers have called this book dull, but I'll read it anyway. I think I can't expect to keep her on a Harry Potter pedestal and should go into this book not considering her previous fame.

willow · 03-31-2014, 06:28 AM

Just started, The Hunger Games Trilogy.

Greco · 02-23-2014, 07:04 AM

Yes, I have heard that "A Suitable Girl" is not yet out. As for "An Equal Music" I found the writing, the plot, and of course I "heard" the music throughout this story. His novel "A Suitable Boy" I also liked but not as much.

Now am reading Nikki Giovanni's "Chasing Utopia: A Hybrid"

It is beautiful, sad, and heart-warming for me, and a G_d send.
