    I work in a library so I have such a long list of books I want to read! I just finished Summerland by Elin Hilderbrand and now I'm onto The Good Father by Diane Chamberlain. :)

    The Time Traveler's Wife!! So good... and since it's broken up into so many little episodes or chapters, it's so easy to pick up when I have a few minutes.

    Good book! Not really crazy about the film though

    I actually enjoyed that film. I'll have to check out this book. i imagine it's even better. (I find books tend to be better than movies)
  • I'm reading "The Blessed". It's about the Shaker community. It's hard to get into but if I'm alone and it's quiet, I am able to read it. I also have some Amish Stories that I intend to read. I'll probably take them with me to read while I'm in the hospital. I find out tomorrow when my hip replacement surgery is. I'm reading the Anne of Green Gables books on Kindle. It has 11 books on it. I love reading my kindle (on my PC).

    I'm currently reading several books - but the one that has most of my attention is the last installment of the Sookie Stackhouse/Southern Vampire Series called Dead Ever After.
