I'm reading "The Westies" by TJ English. Next up.. "Reading Lolita in Tehran" Followed by "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" That's the plan anyway... the (real-life) book club may throw one in there somewhere, but this is the plan for now!

Welcome!! What part of the Philippines are you from?

So glad to hear all the great feedback on "Little Bee".. I'm about halfway through now and I love it! Glad to know that that probably won't change throughout the rest of my reading.

I have! Never have I ever been on a sailboat.

We had hamburgers from a place called "Shake Shack" here in NYC.

Has anyone read Little Bee by Chris Cleave?

My husband and parents (who are visiting) are watching Rookie Blues.

Neither have I. Never have I ever bungee-jumped.

Just finished "The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane" by Katherine Howe, and moving onto "Little Bee" by Chris Cleave.

The Pale Blue Eye is up for me after "House Rules" and "Nanny Returns".. those are due back before "TPBE" but I will get to it before too long!

Hi, Chrissy! I just checked out The Pale Blue Eye from the library.. It looks good! It's a Victorian murder mystery and apparently Edgar Allen Poe makes an appearance. It seems neat, Arewenearlythere!

I'm reading 'House Rules' right now, so I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it! I'm having a bit of trouble getting into it as much as I have her other ones, but I'm hoping it will pick up soon.

Has anyone read "The Pale Blue Eye" by Louis Bayard?

From the library, I checked out "The Pale Blue Eye" by Louis Bayard.

Finished "A Reliable Wife" last night... had the book club for that today... and tomorrow, starting Jodi Picoult's "House Rules"

I didn't love this past week's episode quite as much... I missed 'peppy' songs, and I find April's character a bit annoying and useless. She pops in for a week, then pops out for 3-4 weeks, and I can't really see the impact of her character on the storylines. I do LOVE the twist , though! I feel so bad for Kurt watching it, but I think it could be the start of something great in terms of plot.

Starting "A Reliable Wife" by Patrick Goolrick.
