    I (bought and) finished '13' by Kelley Armstrong last night. Was in tears for most of the second half, knowing this was possibly the last time I'd ever read about the Women of the Otherworld again.

    Not sure what I'm going to read now. Might re-start the Women of the Otherworld series :p

    LOVE her books! Even though I have a Nook..I still buy the actual books. I have to get this one as soon as I'm done with Mockingjay. :)

    It is REALLY good, a fitting end to the series I'd say. There were a few moments when it felt like Kelley'd stabbed me in the gut, though!

    I am actually reading the third book of "the Hunger Games" series. My daughter (17) reads these and I read them so we have something to connect on.

    Struggling through 100 Years of Solitude.

    Just finished The Stone Angel.

    Summer break from my MA in Literature, so I'm trying not to read 1200 pages a week..
    LOVED 100 years of solitude...I read it in Spanish and English!

    "New Rules of Lifting for Women." I really don't sit down and read for pleasure anymore. I seriously think working at a library for a few years ruined it. lol

    The Devil You Know by Liz Carlyle. I've never read a romance novel before, and I saw it at my mom's friend's house, so I borrowed it and decided to try it.
  • Smart Women Know When to Say No, by Kevin Leman, non-fiction. Just started . . . it's good, but also makes me realize how much work I have do on the "inside." <sigh> Also reading My Extraordinary Ordinary Life, the autobiography of Sissy Spacek. It's sweet and I am enjoying.

    Scapegoats of the Empire by George Witton. I just re-started it. When I first started trying to read it, it was only available for a minimum of $120 and for free online at Project Gutenberg (which I LOVE!). Then I lost my free online copy, I kept trying to find it but still couldn't even at Project Gutenberg. Turns out it was at Project Gutenberg Australia the whole time. :bigsmile: Though now, it's also available for cheap on Amazon, so hooray for Amazon, too.

    Have I posted in this thread yet? I'm reading The Dresden Files, on book 3. It's ok so far, but I don't think I love it. I'm really picky about books, though! I just like having my kindle read to me every night until I fall asleep.

    I have been reading a couple of serious books on the music business (Music Law by Nolo and the music business one by Donald Passman) since I am creating a music publishing company, and a lot of older Regency romances, sci fi/fantasy books from the 80s, mild stuff like that--I read a ton of financial and motivational blogs, and psychology books by Seligman and others--and I work five days a week too, so I get tired and read in bed!!!!

    "Wire" by Jeffrey Deaver. "Sleep No More" by Greg Iles "Sisters and Wives" by Natalie R. Collins

    I always have to have a book nearby. Every chance I get, I pick one up and read as long as I can.

    I'm currently working on the Hunger Games trilogy, I'm a few chapters into the second book.

    The Golden Compass is a good book, a little surreal at times though.
