I'm just tearing through My Best Friend's Exorcism by Grady Hendrix. This book is a lot of fun--I recommend it if you love trashy teen thrillers from the 80's and 90's. A+.1
-
Reading the Best Science and Nature Writing of 2016. It's awesome! Also reason Macchiavelli' s The Prince.0
-
I'm reading Anne of Green Gables. It's delightful.1
-
Just started Peter Atkins' Reactions: The Private Life of Atoms.0
-
Sailor Moon Volume 2. I just completed the collection, so I'm reading straight through them.1
-
Make that Volume 3. ^_^1
-
I just started The Outsiders. I can't remember if I ever read it in school. I think it may be one of the only S E Hinton books I haven't read.
I also only just found out the Hinton is a woman! Mind blown.1 -
Hello everyone! I'm new here and I just wanted to share. I'm so glad to see that many of you are like me and read several books at once, because a lot of people are irritated by the fact that I do that haha!
Currently, I am reading book 4 in the Vladimir Tod series "Eleventh Grade Burns", book 3 in the Hush, Hush series "Silence", "Fahrenheit 451", and my current favorite "The Shack". All of them are wonderful so far but if you haven't picked up "The Shack" yet I would highly recommend it, but if that's not your thing, the Hush, Hush saga is amazing!1 -
@brittaniarina I absolutely love the Hush, Hush series!! Have you ever read the Fallen series or the Abandoned series? I absolutely love them and highly recommend them! ^_^0

I just started Company: A Psychological Thriller. It's total garbage writing but I'm finishing it because it's so short, I'm already halfway through.2

Currently reading The Scorch Trials from the Maze Runner Series. I am not crazy about Dashner's writing, but I have to find out what happens.2

I lied. I couldn't finish it. Reading We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson2 -
Sometimes it isn't worth finishing a truly bad book. Good on you for putting it down.
Hope you enjoy We Have Always Lived In The Castle. It's creepy and intriguing.
I'm currently reading Born Crime by Trevor Noah. He's had a unique upbringing and his story is interesting. There's a lot in the book about apartheid and how it functioned in society that I never realized.1 -
Slowly working my way through Burned by Karen Marie Moning.1
-
I finished Born A Crime and found it an interesting look at South Africa at the time of Trevor's life.
I'm now reading The Hidden Life of Trees. Fascinating, so far.1 -
I am currently reading Brother Odd, it is book 3 in the Odd Thomas Series by Dean Koontz.1
-
-
I actually liked the movie odd thomas with anton yelchin. Assuming you like the series enough to be reading #3. I've nwver read Koontz. Is it graphically violent or more suspenseful?
The books for the Odd Thomas series that I have read are not graphically violent - they can be suspenseful.1 -
Dark Places by Gillian Flynn. I have read Gone Girl and Sharp Objects and enjoyed both, so I'm excited to read this book.
Currently waiting for the the third book in the Maze Runner Series to be available through my online library, I have it on hold.1 -
I've been too busy this year to read as much as I usually do.
Currently reading Feverborn by Karen Marie Moning. Only my 16th book this year.
Recently finished FNAF: The Twisted Ones by Scott Cawthon & Kira Breed-Wrisley.2 -
Well Dark Places was so good I pretty much read it strait through lol. Finished in two sittings haha!
Now reading Wild by Cheryl Strayed, I've seen the movie and was curious about the book. I have been reading a lot of very intense books lately so I figured a lighter read might be good!

Wolf in White Van1

Democracy: Stories From the Long Road to Freedom by Condoleezza Rice, The Poisoner's Handbook by Deborah Blum and Pride and Prejudice.0
-
The Bards of Bone Plain by Patricia McKillip. It's fantasy and I love this author!1
-
I've completed 2 wonderful books this week.
We Are Water by Wally Lamb (audio). A story of family relationships and dynamics. I haven't read Wally Lamb in years and this book told me I have to remedy that and read all his books.
Shtum by Jem Lester. Flawed people, all with a hidden story. Jonah is a character that grew on me. At times funny, at times sad, this is a really touching story.

Currently working my way through Phantom of the Opera. I love it and get frustrated by it at the same time! It can definitely be dull at points, but the story is so intruiging.
I remember when I was a very small child (probably 8/9 yo) that I was drawn to the Phantom when I saw the movie, I truly felt for him, which is really weird since I don't remember anything else from the movie and didn't really understand the plot other than I felt that he was lonely. This is why now nearly 20 years later I felt so compelled to read it, and to push through the pages that are less than exciting... so far it's worth it!1 -
I'm about to finish Ghost Story, which really reminds me of It. Good, long read.1
-
Does reading "The Joy of Cooking" from cover to cover count for this purpose? Not exactly a gripping page turner, but I am learning a few things.1
-
It totally counts. Share anything amazing. I'm a fan of the pumpkin bread though it's fairly awful for you.0
