    Jim Butcher's Ghost Story. Well technically I'm listening to it. I finished the hardcover on Sat so now I'm listening to it to catch nuances the reader's voice brings out that I glossed over in reading.

    Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
    The Plays of Oscar Wilde
    The Omnivore's Dilema by Micheal Pollan - This is a good one if you're interested in how food is made today, where it's come from how it's grown, processed etc, really interesting! AND you don't need to be an omnivore to enjoy it, I'm a vegetarian and it's still relevant.

    Just finished Wicked Appetite by Janet Evanovich yesterday and started Manhunt today.

    If there are other Evanovich fans on here (she writes screw-ball comedies with suspense/action/romance) I would like recommendations of other authors with a similar feel. You can just send me a message since it's not on topic for this thread. I'm running out of books. I need comedy :)

    I read Full Scoop by her! I actually can't think of similar authors. I'll have to get back to you on that!

    I'm going to start Shakespeare's history plays (starting w/ King John). I love Tudor history, and have read biograhpies of Henry VIII, Mary Queen of Scots, Henry VIII's wives and kids, as well as a couple of historical novels. Now to tackle Shakespeare (who I love - it just takes more "think" time. )

    I could be reading online, but...well...MFP takes time too, and I would SO hate to neglect y'all... :wink:

    I'm currently finishing Mario Puzo's The Godfather. Just finished Stephen King's Under the Dome. It *probably* would have been more impactful if I hadn't seen The Simpsons Movie first. :laugh: Plus, the ending was a tad disappointing in m opinion.
