    just finished the fifty shades trilogy ... i liked it even if others dont.

    Just started The Night Circus..

    If anyone can reccomend any other good trilogies please do so.. im into action ( i have just read hunger games soo good).. girly romance...magic... anything with a gripping story !

    Night Circus was good. If you like Young Adult (Hunger Games like books), I'd recomment the Trylle trilogy by Anamda Hocking (tho I've only just finished the first two...). The Delirium trilogy by Lauren Oliver. The Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth. Delirium and Divergent are of dystopian societies much like Hunger Games. The Trylle series is a little Harry Potter (but a troll society rather than wizards & witches) and a little Princess Diaries (lead girl is a Princess and didn't know it and is learning about the kingdom she is to inherit).

    If you liked the Fifty Shades series, you might like to try the Crossfire series by Slyvia. Book One, Bared to You, is out in soft cvoer, but Book Two, Deeper Into You, is only in kindle/ebook format right now - the book book will be released in October 2012. Same basic premise, young college graduate in first job (tho' she's got money of her own) meets young accomplished businessman. Steamy scenes, yes, but not the emphasis on D/s relationship. Also, like Christian, there is a history to Gideon that needs to be revealed.

    Happy to talk more!

    I am reading Breaking Dawn still, It has taken me forever to start reading it. I like the book, but the book is so long I don't really like picking it up. My friend is glad I am reading it because he loves those books and has been bugging me since it came out to read it, but I don't really like starting big books because they take so long and look like so much work.

    I am currently reading the Earth's Children series by Jean M. Auel.

    It's a prehistoric love story and I can't put the books down.

    I am currently re-reading The Dragon Reborn which is the 3rd bood in The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jorden. I am hoping I don't get through them to soon before the final book of the series comes out in Novermber (I hope).

    From all the post, I am going to have to get a hold of 50 Shades of Grey and The Hunger Games series.

    To the couple of people who were leary about the backlash in regards to reading the Twilight series, I am also a fan who has read the series multiple times. Its relaxing light reading (no, I am not trying to change minds of the people that dont like Twilight), I am just emphasizing thats why different genres exist; people have different taste.

    Just finished Hunger Games and am well into Fifty Shades of Grey right now (with the other 2 books pre-ordered) and Catching Fire is on tap.

    I finished Fifty Shades and the second book in the series. Don't think I want to read the last one. I'm currently reading "Poughkeepsie" and I'm loving it. I also just bought the next book in the J.R. Ward series "Lover Reborn", going to get to that one next.

    Just finished Poughkeepsie!!! REALLY liked it!!! I've a handful of J. R. Wards patiently waiting in Mount TBR.

    I like the following, depending on what you like to read of course:

    Non Fiction: I am a big fan of this book 'The Raw Food Detox Diet - Natalia Rose'. I liked this so much I brought a hard copy.

    Fiction: 50 Shades of Grey.

    I go through phases and haven't been reading anything lately, but have a goal of two books a month so need to pick up a new book to read.

    Love all the ideas that I get from threads like this!

    I am reading Steven Tylers book "Does the Noise In My Head Bother You?". It is really all over the place but still interesting to hear about all of the people he knew when he was first starting out.

    I just finished Wool by Hugh Howey. Best book I have read in ages in the dystopia genre. I am how working my way through Hugh Howey's other works. Luckily they are very cheap to buy from the ebook store on Amazon.

    After I finished with Mr Howey's writings I have World War Z and Riddley Walker lined up.

    Finished "Gang Leader For a Day" by Sadir Venkatesh.
    (co-authored Freakonomics)

    Was for a SOC class, but I must say that was an EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT book. Would recommend in a second to anyone.
