    (1) Beowulf A Student Edition edited by George Jack
    (2) Hindu Law and Judicature
    (3) Listening to Wizard's First Rule by Terry Goodkind
    upcoming:
    (1) Will listen to The Secret Life of Words (From the Great Courses)

    ....yeah um this is my 'fun' reading lol, at least this list has Wizard's First Rule in it :tongue: Any earlier and you would of just seen "How To Teach Yourself Old English" "Teach Yourself Philology" and "The I.N.A. Heroes Autobiographies." As my husband is found of saying my definition of a "FUN" read isn't normal.

    Recommend: Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert in the translation of Eleanor Marx Aveling

    I have three words of advice:

    Read "Gone Girl"

    It's an amazing book with twists and turns, and there is a movie to be released this year! :)

    Just finished that. Brilliant book. I love that author.

    Read that one and recommend it to my friends all the time. I can't wait to see the movie!!! :flowerforyou:

    IMO, it's harder to find time to watch a movie - you have to have around 2 solid hours, because who watches a movie in parts and you have to be where a TV or cinema is.

    Books you can read almost anywhere and you can read in installments - much easier to fit in to life time wise.

    But I guess we all find time for things we want to spend time on.

    Just started reading Grain Brain and don't want to put it down. Is an eye opener as was Wheat Belly. I have Monuments Men waiting on the sideline.

    The Fault in our Stars is next. 5 star rating with 9000+ reviews

    I was a little let down, either due to the book itself or my high expectations of it...can't decide which!
