    I'm reading: Thrive - The Vegan Nutrition Guide to Optimal Performance in Sports and Life in paperback.

    Do audio books count? When I run I listen to The Bite Club - Book 10 in the Morganville Vampire series. Love audio books when I run!

    Currently reading East of Eden by John Steinbeck, Ready Player One by Ernest Cline and the 17 Day Diet by Dr. Mike Moreno. I usually have a stack of books on my nightstand that I rotate depending on my mood.

    I'm a juggling reader. Currently reading Twelve Sharp by Janet Evanovich, Clash of Kings by George RR Martin, and rereading Electric Kool Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe... all in good ol' fashioned REAL books. I'd sooner learn to make paper myself than switch to an ereader... maybe that's partially because I work in a bookstore...

    .... OH and I just finshed Wheat Belly, and HIGHLY recommend it :)

    I enjoyed the Hunger Games trilogy, but I also had some issues with it... I'm currently reading the latest Dresden Files book, in hard cover. Ghost Story. I'm not finding it as accessible as the rest of them, but I think that's because I'm not entirely thrilled with the premise.

    I also got very excited for a moment, because when I saw Lamb, I thought you guys were talking about the book Lamb, by Christopher Moore, which was a very excellent book, indeed.

    Most recently finished the Hunger Games Trilogy on my Nook - LOVED them. Just started Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. Want to try to the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo again - tried once and just didn't like the style of writing at all!

    I'm rereading the Knife of Never Letting Go, all three books are absolutely phenomenal. Also Look at the Birdie, short fiction by Kurt Vonnegut.

    Physical book: The Master & Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov - absolutely loving it!

    On Kindle: various 16th century Venetian cookbooks. Venetian dialect I can understand (I'm half Venetian) but 'old' Venetian dialect I struggle with a bit, so the books are a bit challenging! :laugh:

    Also on Kindle: some of Mark Twain's letters....I love Twain, he's always been one of my favourite authors, and I've recently discovered a wealth of his work (and Edgar Allen Poe - another favourite) on Project Gutenberg, which are downloadable for Kindle. How cool is that?! :bigsmile:

    Also, the Manee books (PDF), which are Thai kids' books, designed to help them read and write. I'm moving to Thailand in a couple of weeks, so thought I ought to learn how to be literate....at least then if nothing else, it will enable me to read signs which warn of wild elephants (for example)! I'm hoping it will help with my spoken Thai too.

    I am reading the 3rd book in the Hunger Games, Mockingjay on my Kindle.

    Are you loving it?! I've had dreams about THG series. I even find myself thinking about the characters and the plot line constantly. It was THAT good of a series. Probably up there with the best books I've ever read.

    I'm almost finished reading The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson... then I'm going to watch all 3 Swedish dvds back to back :bigsmile:

    I've a pile of books waiting to be read and methinks the new Janet Evanovich is probably next on my list as I need some light relief after Steig Larsson and I've the new Stuart MacBride waiting too... that's gonna be another gruesome read :laugh:

    I think most books by Christopher Moore are very excellent. The first book I ever read of his was A Dirty Job. My daughter and I read it aloud together. There were parts where we were laughing so hard we were crying. We got to meet him at comic con and he is just as hilarious in person. Very cool and down to earth too.
