City of Thieves has been one of my best reads of 2009 too. :)

 

I haven't read anything today - I'm too tired. I hope to read a good chunk of Orwell tomorrow though. :lol:

I started reading The Book of Tomorrow - Cecilia Ahern bout hour and half ago...halfway through already :lol::)

I finished Jamaica Inn by Daphne Du Maurier on Saturday and really really enjoyed it. I am going to start Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris tomorrow. Can't wait :lol:

Up to chapter 12 (page 157) of The Bone Garden so far, and can't put it down! If not for baseball distracting me on the TV I'd probably be a lot farther :lol:.

Over the weekend I finished Weekend in Paris by Robyn Sisman

then I read some more in Only Pleasure by Lora Leigh but since this book is 18+ I don't drag it along on the train so this morning I started reading Falling for you by Jill Mansell.

Wow, my first post :lol:

Just started reading Interview with the Vampire, tried reading it when I was 15 but never got through it, enjoying it so far though.

Yay :lol:, congrats and welcome! I first read Interview at about 15 (possibly a bit younger) but then, I was always a bit vamp-mad :)! Hope you enjoy it, I personally think it's brilliant (although I am of the considered opinion that the first sequel, The Vampire Lestat, is even better).

 

I've just received Sorcery and Cecilia, or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer in the post today from a lovely BookMoocher :D and cancelled four pending requests on the same site after a week of silence; how long does it take to click a button that says "no, I will not send this book to you?" :)?

I received 'The Undead' by Dacre Stoker in the post today from Lexie - it got here WAAAAY quicker than I expected! :) I'm gonna have to rush through Dracula :lol:

Posted

I will finish The Ghost at the table Today for sure, for sure. Only have about 30 more pages to read. Next up ....I think The Reader.

Welcome to the forum :lol: that is a fantastic book :)

ohno! I tried reading Dead Until Dark this morning but... I gave up because I didn't like the way that it was written :lol:

 

I have started reading The White Queen by Philippa Gregory instead and I got The Lost Book of Salem out of the library. The library told me that they didn't have a copy and there it was when I went in!!!!

Posted

I picked up Almost Moon by Alice Sebold today. The hardback was in the sale section! only paid $10 for it :lol: I love bargains.

 

As for reading - Im still making my way through Dead as a Doornail. Loving it so far!

I'm ten chapters into Rebecca Stott's Ghostwalk, now and I'm very impressed. It's a very interesting read, especially since I know very little about alchemy and this book has triggered my interest. :lol:

Bought in '48 by James Herbert,A Game of Spies by John Altman,Complete short fiction by Oscar Wilde,Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and Dead Beat by Jim Butcher.

Carried on reading a Kestral for a Knave, including the Games lesson part of the story, absolutely fantastic

I'm up to chapter 16 (page 205) now in The Bone Garden. I read quite a bit yesterday and just a few pages today since I got home late and now all my attention is on the NFL game on TV...:lol:. I'm loving it though, and am so glad to read more of Oliver Wendell Holmes. It reminds me of reading the Dante Club :). All this early 1800's Boston/Cambridge is SO lovely!

 

Oh, and glad you are liking Ghostwalk, Scarlette! It was quite an interesting read and I'm so glad I read it :).
