    On the nook I am reading:
    Decision Points By George W. Bush
    The Stand By Stephen King (have read the paper version 6 times; unabridged)
    Strangers By Dean Koontz (have read the paper version 5 times)

    Paper books:
    The Last Lecture By Randy Pausch (Just finished, have tissues near by!)
    The Sword Of Shannara By Terry Brooks

    Yes, I am reading 5 books at once, drives my husband batty...lol Note: Two of the books I have read several times and just love them! Have to say I am also re-reading the last Harry Potter before the last movie comes out.

    Congrats on your kindle, and wishing you many happy reading hours.

    Am reading to and with my 8 year old son, and we're on the third Harry Potter book.
    I also just finished: Because They Hate, by Brigitte Gabriel.

    I read the whole Potter Series to my son. I miss doing that.

    My daughter got me hooked. I have my own copies now...lol My husband had finally broke down and started reading them too, he's only half a muggle now...:laugh:

    I'm not sure if you would count massage and reflexology as health? But I'm reading up on massage techniques right now.

    Ellen Hopkins-Tricks
    To Kill a Mockingbird

    I'm currently reading Persuasion by Jane Austen.

    Oh that is my favorite of all hers!

    I also recently (re-)read The Belgariad and The Mallorean series by David Eddings (the first of all these is called Pawn of Prophesy). They are high-fantasy. My son is reading A Wrinkle in Time and I am loving that with him. Going to back soon for more of the Midnight Louie series by Carole Nelson Douglas (just met her!)

    Happy reading!

    The Stand By Stephen King (have read the paper version 6 times; unabridged)
    Strangers By Dean Koontz (have read the paper version 5 times)

    Us, we have a little bit in common here. First of all The Stand is one of the most amazing books ever written, INHO, and then pretty much anything I have ever read from Koontz has just been good. Darn, now I wanna get back to reading more Stephen King and I am in the middle of a very long series as it is.

    I'm reading Sin in the Second City: Madams, Ministers, Playboys and the Battle for America's Soul. It is about the history of Chicago's brothels and it is really interesting so far.

    I love my kindle... It's super convenient. I'm currently reading 4 books right now. Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption by Laura Hillenbrand is my favorite one on my reading list. I also subscribe to a handful of awesome blogs.

    Angels and Demons. I liked The Da Vinci Code and haven't read this one yet.

    I try, TRY to have a classic novel I'm reading and I've started A Tale of Two Cities about three times over the last several months, lol. The story is great, but the classic Old English is hard to get through at times, lol.

    I'm reading 'David Copperfield' by ****ens on classicreader.com on the iPad, and I have Jacques Pepin's autobiography at the bedside table. This summer I have to read The Sisters Grimm series because my daughters are quoting it like their own personal Monty Python and I want to know what they are talking about!

    I have the NookColor and I love it! You can rent books from the library for free, which I love! I read so much that I don't want to have to buy them all. I've read 31 books in the last 5 months. I really loved The Help, My Sisters Keeper, Water for Elephants, books by James Patterson, Jodi Picoult, Nicholous Sparks, Stephen King...

    War and Peace. Seriously. I have always meant to read it and haven't got round to it 'til now.

    I'm a sci fi/fantasy fan as well though and have been really enjoying the new Patrick Rothfuss series. I'd definitely recommend them.
