  • I'm currently reading "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. it's been turned into a movie recently but won't be in the cinemas in Germany until March, so I thought I'd read it before I watch the movie. Also, several friends have been nagging me to read it because it's apparently very good. And it is! Also makes me a little uncomfortable, being German and all...

    Hi everyone

    I'm currently reading Me before You by JoJo Moyes, its an emotional rollercoster of a book, sometimes your laughing, sometimes your crying. But i'm really enjoying it, would recommend it to anyone.

    The Courage To start. Forget author. The book is about starting to run. A lot of people also know it by the penguin chronicles

    I'm an English student, so I'm always reading! Right now, I'm reading...er.. Peter Pan! I've just finished reading Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk. He's one of my favourite authors, he wrote Fight Club, problem is I keep reading his books in Edward Norton's voice...

    I'm currently reading "Your Money or Your Life" by Vicki Robin and Joe Dominguez. It's really putting things into perspective about what I am doing with my life and what I still want to achieve.

    Thanks OP for starting this topic! I've made a list of books that I want to read.

    Currently I'm reading Thomas Jefferson: The Art of Power by Jon Meacham, it's an excellent book! I'm listening to Silent Partner by Jonathan Kellerman on my drive to work.

    I see lots of people mentioning The Book Thief. Our book club is reading that some time this year (don't remember what month) and I'm looking forward to it!
  • I'm reading In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust. I set myself the challenge to read it because it's apparently the longest book. I'm kind of regretting it now, lol.

    From a Buick 8 by Stephen King. It's ok so far but last year I read 11/22/63 and Under the Dome by King and those were 2 of my favorite books I read last year. I just finished reading all the Time Quintet and O'Keefe family books by Madeline L'Engle which I really enjoyed.

    I decided that I need to read more. So? I bought the entire Game of Thrones series for my kindle when it was on sale before Christmas, lol. The thing come all together in one file, so I could probably read for a month and be at like 4% done, lol.

    Not trying to criticize, but wouldn't be better to read the Hobbit? :tongue:
