Kylie Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Glad to hear you're enjoying Grave Sight, Whitegold. I've had that on my TBR pile for a little while, but I'm barely keeping up with the Sookie Stackhouse books at the moment. Speaking of which, I've read a bit of From Dead to Worse today, and also some of Shakespeare by Bill Bryson. Hopefully I'll have some time to knuckle down and read this weekend. I just bought an iPad today, which I'm really excited about. I can't wait to put my books on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SueK Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Finally finished The Siege by Helen Dunmore last night - great book and will review it later on. I'm now starting on the sequel - The Betrayal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kidsmum Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Finished Living Dead in Dallas last night which I enjoyed & decided to make a start on the Millenium Trilogy so I'm now about 50 pages into The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson.

Weave Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I'm halfway through 'Desires of the Dead' by Kim Derting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesilbeach Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Halfway through Foreign Bodies - nothing has happened so far, and I'm only keeping going for my book group, although need to finish to find out if anything does actually happen by the end! Also bought The Postmistress by Sarah Blake which is our other book for this month, and a weekend indulgence for me, the fifth book in The Immortals series by Alyson Noël, Night Star.

Chrissy Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 I finished 'One Of Our Thursdays Is Missing'. As ingenious and detailed as ever, Mr Fforde has clearly continued to drink the clever juice. Although I really did enjoy reading this latest installment of the Thursday Next series, it did feel a tad separate from the previous books.

AbielleRose Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 I'm still reading Beastly and loving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peacefield Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) I managed a whopping 6 pages of my Bradley book last night before falling asleep, wow! After work yesterday I stopped by the Border's that's closing and picked up a copy of Nightlight for myself. It's a parody of Twilight put out by Harvard Lampoon and is hilarious. Last week the book was 30% off but knowing the price would come down further I hid it behind a zombie Christmas book . Yesterday when I went back it was still there and 40% off! Go me .

chesilbeach Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Read The Immortals: Night Star today. This series has definitely picked up since the first book, which I was a bit ambivalent over, but I liked this one, but I'm quite glad to find out the next book will be the last in the series. I do like to know the authors have a definite end in sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobblybear Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Caroline - Stephen King Do you mean Carrie? I've not heard of Caroline, and Amazon reveals nothing. I purchased The Help by Kathryn Stockett today, after hearing so many rave reviews. I paid a bit more than I wanted to for the Kindle version, but it sounds so good that I just have to read it. I'm also still reading Ubik by Philip K Dick, which is finally coming together in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had much book activity all weekend, unfortunately; I've been completely absorbed in my new iPad. I did, however, lend my Mum a new stack of books. Hopefully I can wean myself of my iPad long enough to do a little reading this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitegold Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Finished Grave Sight by Charlaine Harris and loved it! It was an easy quick read. It flowed better than the Sookie Stackhouse books and made it difficult to put the book down! I'll have to continue with the series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
