Tell me what you're reading

I just finished "Grey" , and am starting "Casual Vacancy" over again. And starting the Game of Thrones series.

 

I liked it better than the original 50 Shades. Better editing, probably. I'm irritated that the other two books in the trilogy aren't available (don't even know if they ever will be).

 

I'm currently reading Book #3 of the Wheel Of Time series by Robert Jordan "The Dragon Reborn". Obviously, I'm hooked since this is the 4th book of the series I'm reading... I actually read the prequel #0 before starting the actual series. The prequel was shorter than any of the books in the series, so I figured that was a good place to start to see if I would like it or not.

Happy Reading!!

 

I'm reading In the Time of the Butterflies. It's about the Dominican Republic. We're going there at the end of the month and my daughter said it would be a good book to read before going to the museums.

 

I'm currently working on two very large books, but they're throwing off my total books read this year towards my Goodreads number. haha

and

For my "downtime" I'm reading Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets again (I'm re-reading them so I can be "up" on them as my DD9 is reading them) and Superfudge (with my DD9)

 

I mean, from the point of view of Christian instead of Anastasia. I've read all three from Ana's point of view, the original trilogy. But "Grey" is the same as book one, just from Christian's point of view. But I am not sure if there will be book 2 and book 3 from Christian's point if view. I wish there were.

I'm not sure about Casual Vacancy. It's taken me all year, and I'm still not very far in. :/ it hasn't truly captured my interest.

Side note, three new mini books are being released from Harry Potter series... Kindle only I think, releasing 9/6. I keep meaning to pre order, but I haven't decided when I'd be able to read them, so I haven't yet.

 

I just finished Orphan Train by Christina Baker Cline.

 

I read they are ebook only which I don't like. My kids won't read ebooks. The pittacus lore books had enovellas released thst were later bundled into a printed book of three small stories. Maybe they'll do something like that too *fingers crossed *

 

A great read!

 

I just finished The Half Life of Molly Pierce (Katrina Leon i think was the author)- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16068973-the-half-life-of-molly-pierce it was short enough and interesting enough to keep me going but hard to describe without giving away the plot -it's one of those books where u basically start at the end and fill in the blanks as you read to what happened and the backstory -it's YA but that is a plus to me rather than a minus;
I'm near the end of The Summer I Learned to Fly https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/9578513-the-summer-i-learned-to-fly on audio. I liked the author's previous book better. It's been good but not fantastic - i think it's meant to be for middle grade / high school tho

I picked up Colleen Hoover's Confess from the library when i took the kids the other day so thats up next - i know nothing about it but it's Colleen so should be at least 4stars

 

Because melodramatic space trash is how I roll. Especially if Daniel Jackson is on the cover.

I'm also a "series" junkie.

 

I'm listening to Night Fall by Nelson DeMille (book #3 of John Corey series) and reading Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee (2nd book or companion book to To Kill a Mockingbird which I just re-read).

 

Loved the Stargate show. Should rewatch with my ds12 - who is showing signs of liking the same TV I do. Lol
