finished reading... Decipher - Stel Pavlou [575 pgs] The Hisorian - Elizabeth Kostova [642 pgs]

Historian - Elizabeth Kostova A great read but it took me awhile to read it. Loved the ending, very Hollywoodish. Decipher - Stel Pavlou An interesting read. Pavlou ties the Atlantic myths, religion, history and modern science together well but I found that Pavlou spent too much time on the scientific analysis. I found myself skipping paragraphs as I was reading. The Curious Incident with the Dog in the Night-Tine - Mark Haddon A short and easy read; read it in one sitting. The story is a very entertaining and humorous even though the main character, Christopher states early in the book that he doesn

Gave me a headache...

finished reading Amazonia by James Rollins [544 pages]

Just finished reading Amazonia by James Rolins for the second time. One of my all time fav books! This book is an action packed mystery thriller with a good plot. It's a wonderfully written book with scientific facts thrown in, but you won't notice it much, just flows with the story. The book held me in from the very first page, even for the second time. This book has everything from mutant animals to regeneration to a plague to a pet jaguar. done about 3/4 of The Historian, it has been a great read so far. I'm enjoying it. I've put Decipher by Stel Pavlou on hold until I finish The Historian.

From wikipedia... So I am going to assume that its her married name...More about her at her official site... http://www.janetteturnerhospital.com/

'The Lizard's Bite' was wonderful read; I found it to be better than the previous three books in this series. The best book by David Hewson that I’ve read so far. There were many twists in the plot and the ending was very surprising.

it wasn't what i expected but it was an entertaining read, i enjoyed it.

I'm not obsessed with certain authors... I just have most of their books on my self and eagerly wait for their releases. I wait for the paperbacks to come before I buy them...I'm a uni student, I'm broke 80% of the time. The authors I follow are... Nora Roberts, especially her writing as J.D.Robb R.K.Rowling (that's the only series that I own in all hardcovers and I even own 'Quidditch Through the Ages' and 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them') James Rollins David Hewson (he's recent, I randomly picked up one of his books at the store, turned out it was the third book and had to go back and get the first)

Just recently finished reading... Labyrinth by Kate Mosse [528 pgs] Currently reading... Decipher - Stel Pavlou [575 pgs] More to read... The Hisorian - Elizabeth Kostova [642 pgs] Alias Grace - Margaret Atwood [552 pgs]

I agree with you Margo, the movie didn't compare with the book. Their interpretation of the book was lacking. I read the trilogy a while back and only the first two books stick with me the last one (the Amber Spyglass) not so much. Has anyone read any of his other works?

More books for my Plan on Reading list.... Due Preparations for the Plague - Janette Turner Hospital The Footprints of God – Greg Iles Deadly Web - Barbara Nadel The Devil's Star - Jo Nesbo The Last Ten Percent - Michelle McKinney Hammond Rite of Passage - Richard D'Agostino Nine – Jan Burke The God of Chaos - Tom Bradby Amnesia – David Best The Amber Room – Steve Berry Decipher - Stel Pavlou

I finished reading the Labyrinth by Kate Mosse (finally!). As the book went on (somewhere after the 200th page), I found that it was quite enthralling. Normally, I am not fond of reading books that jump from on timeline to another, I find them to be ‘choppy’ and confusing. Kate Mosse moved through the two timelines without a glitch, they flowed. But I have to say that I enjoyed the past timeline better than the present, even though both were written wonderfully. I found that the past was blurred towards the ends when Audric tells Alice the story, I wanted more details. All in all, this was an entertaining read, but its not a book I’d want to reread. I have given up on reading Deep Fatham by James Rollins. I am done a little more than 1/4 of the book and I find that this book isn't gripping like his other ones.

my favs are... ugly betty bones cold case simpsons criminal minds numb3rs that 70's show heroes (season 1)

Read several more pages of Labyrinth today on the bus ride to and from campus today. I'm on page 159. Yay!

i was reading all the welcomes and something seemed out of place... it was my name... *blushes* i spelled it wrong... its VANI not vina. i went back and changed the original post, just letting ppl know...

I have been reading the Labyrinth for the past couple of months and I haven't got past the first hundred pages. For some reason I con't seem to get into this book. So tempted to stop reading further but won't. I've many good things about this book, hope it gets intersting as it goes on. Got a feeling that it's going to take me awhile to finish this book.

I have finished reading The Sacred Cut by David Hewson. It was a good read. Going to start The Lizard's Bite by David Hewson (fourth book in the Costa series). Excerpt from the back of the book: Life was never black and white in Italy...Venicereminded him of a bad yet familiar relative. Dangerous to know, difficult to let go. Nic Costa's and Gianni Peroni's exile in Veniceis finally drawing to a close. And the Roman detectives' last case, an apparently accidental fire that has claimed two lives, should be a straightforward affiar. However, as they dig more deeply into the insular glassaking community on Murano and the stange Arcangeli family, things don't quite add up. Soon Costa and Peroni became embroiled in a dangerous investigation into the shadowy, claustrophobic world that lies beneath Venice's sparkling facade - where the usual rules do not apply...

I don't just have one favorite book but several. Here's couple... Amazonia - James Rollins The Five People You Meet in Heaven - Mitch Albom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling The Lucifer Code - Michael Cordy

I love the poem 'Hope is the Thing With Feathers' by Emily Dickinson. Its a beautiful poem. Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune--without the words, And never stops at all, And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. I've heard it in the chillest land, And on the strangest sea; Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me.
