    The Hunger Games Trilogy is definately recommended, best books I've read in a long time.

    If you enjoyed those I'd highly recommend the Gone series by Michael Grant...so looking forward to the last one coming out next year :)

    Organizational Behavior: I am reading it prior to my class stating in about 2 weeks. I am working on my masters in project management. Sorry that I can't recommend anything really worth an "interesting read"....I did get some good ideas from everyone else. I am going to have to get the hunger games books.

    Depending on your professor this can be a very interesting class. As you read this book and if you ever watched Star Trek think about the structure of the Enterprise and the principles discussed in the book.

    I'm in the middle of "Fast Food Nation" but it's an actual book....I did just finish reading the series starting with "The Spellman Files" on my e-reader. Freaking love those books, the main character almost became like a best friend.

    He has a whole series of "Prey" novels...police crime mysteries with some romance thrown in...always good for a entertaining easy read...

    Just finished Insurgent by Veronica Roth. And now I'm reading Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. I've been on a dystopia kick lately.

    Just finished Insurgent last week. Next year before the last one :-( I too am on a dystopian kick also. Love how each series is completely different!

    I recently finished all three Hunger games and did all Three 50 Shades (did those in a week. COULD NOT put it down) then I did the first 2 books of Divergent (similar themes to Hunger Games) and now I'm reading the Nora Roberts Boonsboro series. Waiting on pin and needles for the new Janet Evanovich to come out Wicked Business.

    Currently reading Stephen King's The Gunslinger from the Dark Tower Series :)

    That's my jam! I need to read that series again. My favorite was Wizard and Glass.

    Uhhm, I'm not reading anything right now (between books)
    but the last few I got my hands on were....

    A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness .. which is a supernatural/occult fiction with heavy romance and mystery themes. I'm pretty sure it will be made into a movie at some point since it just seems made for it and very current.

    Secrets of The Fire Sea by Stephen Hunt .. a steampunk fantasy detective novel.. really dee-lightful, the third in his Jackals series.

    Riryria Revelations by Michael Sullivan .. old school 3 book epic with strong male leads, mystery, fantasy. Castles, kings, sorceresses.

    Silent Girl by by Tess Gerritson ... she does spectacular crime thrillers, this one is totally no different. Mmm. Tasty.

    The next book I'm going to read is going to be Blackout by Mira Grant - which is the third book in a post apocalyptic zombie series, it features a lot of conspiracy, some amazing character development, and a unique take on the future of blogging. :) One hopes Amazon will get on their game and ship it SOON.

    Under the Dome by Stephen King

    Loved the concept (though visions of the Simpsons movie kept interfering!) but hated the ending - good idea but poor execution, IMHO.

    Just finished 11/22/63, taking a break from Terry Pratchett, was trying to read all the discworld novels.

    I REALLY want to read 11/22/63.

    Fave King books:

    IT
    Bag of Bones
    The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon
    The Long Walk (as Bachman)
    Duma Key

    I like the first 4 Jean Auel books but I think they kind of got disjointed after that.

    I have watched the first season of Game of Thrones and want the books - I can't even find them at Half Price yet! :laugh:

    I've read the Harry Potter series a bazillion times more or less, as well as the Anne of Green Gables series. I'm currently listening to the first Anne book in my car - go to libravox.org for more info (they read all public domain books and make them available for listening.)

    Just finished listening to Jane Eyre.

    LOVED American Gods by Neil Gaiman

    The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

    The Belgariad / Mallorean by David Eddings (have read some others but these I think are the best)

    I finished Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter this week and just started Deadlocked (the 12th in the the Sookie Stackhouse series). I have Mockingjay (3rd in Hunger Games Series) waiting for me. Trying to finish these before my summer classes start June 5th.

    The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

    Favorite book ever hands down. Gives me the willy chillies and makes me 1 million times more paranoid than 1984.

    A FREAKIN' MEN!!

    I couldn't even read it all at once (normally I pretty much devour books.) I felt so stifled while I was reading it I had to take a break!

    A Storm of Swords. The third in the "Song of Ice and Fire" series (A Game of Thrones). I've loved the whole series so far. Loooooong books, but worth the commitment.


    I am on the fourth book of the series...."A Feast for Crows" and I am almost done with it and am waiting for the 5th book to come to paperback so I can read it!

    I love these, too, and am anxiously awaiting book 5 in paperback!

    Reading now - A Clash of Kings (Song of Ice & Fire, bk 2) - George RR Martin
    Just finished - Lover Reborn - JR Ward
    Up next - The Dark Tide (Andrien English Series) - Josh Lanyon

    I know, I'm all over the place with the genres but I read A LOT and I have to mix it up

    I'm reading "All That Remains" by Patricia Cornwall. It is so easy to read and a brilliant story, so much so I actually bought another of her books before finishing this one. I am a very slow reader though! Oh, I also want to read Tess Gerritson.

    Dragonhaven by Robin McKinley is my current read. I love books with epic quests along the lines of Lord of the Rings.
