    I am about to start reading Codependent No More by Melodie Beattie

    My bestie is in marriage counseling and her therapist told her throw all of her other marriage books away and to read this one. Ive heard it is great for everyone not just those in marriage counseling. So, Im all over it as soon as I get my hands on it.

    One of my all time fav books! I'm currently reading "The Other Boleyn Girl" by Philippa Gregory. I love the way she writes. Just finished "The Virgin's Lover" by the same author. She makes history come alive.

    Just finished "The Art of the Steal" by Frank Abagnale.

    I just restarted "An Echo In The Bone" by Diana Gabaldon. Hopefully, I don't get side tracked and finish it. So many books, so little time (*sighs*) Thanks for all the great suggestions everyone.

    If "Emma and Me" is on audio, I may try it just so we can talk. You have me intrigued.

    I just started The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams :). Yay for giant box sets at Barnes and Noble!
  • The Lost Symbol, the latest novel by Davinci Code author Dan Brown. Almost finished I thought it was pretty good but Deception Point was better I read that in one day and it was 700 pages couldn't put that one down.

    I just finished Kay Hooper's "Blood Sins" and will read "Blood Ties" when it comes out in paperback.
    So now I started Dean Koontz "Your heart belongs to me".

    I love Dean Koontz but I have to say "Your heart belongs to me" was not one of my fav's. How do you like it?

    currently working on the Wheel of Time series (Robert Jordan)

    Faves I can read over and over:
    Lord of the Rings stuff
    Harry Potter stuff
    Twilight stuff
    any Stephen King (will be starting Under the Dome next)
    any Dean Koontz (especially Odd Thomas stuff)

    I LOVE his Odd Thomas books. I've read 3 or 4, but I think there are at least a couple more scheduled to come, I wish they would come out already.

    I just finished The Carrie Diaries by Candace Buschnell (author of sex and the city). I've never read the sex and the city book, but I hear it is quite different from the series which I love. The Carrie Diaries is a prequal to sex and the city, but I didn't mind the inconsistencies from the Carrie we know on the show.

    I also just finished Love the one you're with, it's a cute "what if" novel by Emily Griffin. She has a couple other books I will check out.

    I might also read Eclipse again for the 4th time or so, the movie is coming out soon so I have to refresh.

    Just finished The Host and The Second Short Life of Bree Tanner by Stephanie Meyer. Both very good....didn't think I would like The Host because I don't usually do aliens. About to start Judge and Jury...an old James Patterson.

    After many, many years of chiding people for their fanaticism of Harry Potter, I figured that if I'm to hate something, I should at least read it once.

    I'm on the 6th book and absolutely loving them! I never expected my self to be a Potter nut, but here we are. I can't wait for the next movie (although the movies absolutely do not compare to the books)

    The Scent of Sake, by Joyce Lebra. At work I am also listening to the Sookie Stackhouse audio books. I am about to start #10 then I will be done until another one comes out :)

    Just finished 1-9 of the Sookie Stackhouse books also. Would love to read the 10th but it's not released on Kindle yet damnit. Currently about halfway through Reading Lolita in Tehran which I would highly recommend.

    Yeah I couldn't wait for #10 once I was finished with #9. I had to wait a couple weeks until I had another credit on Audible, lol.

    Read that series twice. Loved them. My copies are still sitting on my shelf. I have tried re-reading again, but can't get my brain to warp in the needed way. :wink:

    Have the third of the Inkheart series - Inkdeath - on my nightstand. Will likely finish it before summer is over, but it is slow going right now.

    Lovely Bones right now.

    I love that you read mostly the Bible. I also used to read mostly the Bible and applaud you for sticking to it. It really is quite good when you get into it, but I have to say that it takes some pushing for me to read it now. I trying to prepare my own Bible studies to keep into the Word.
    God Bless and hope you are having a good week!

    rereading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand

    That's a book I want to add to my personal library. I've never read it yet but my daughter recommended it.

    I'm currently reading Barbara Walters' Memoir "Audition" its really very interesting & I'm not very far into it. My other reads are anything by John Grisham, Nicholas Sparks, James Patterson, and I love love love the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evanovich. Can't wait for the next one #16 to come out next week!

    I read Time Traveller's Wife last summer...its an excellent read also! I just finished The Lovely Bones. It was ok for me.

    I also like Jodi Piccoult books. I have so many books on my shelf that I've yet to read. I can't wait to get to them all! I have an addiction of going to the book store at my local library. They have books that people donate & also ones that they take out of circulation & put them for sale. I get fairly new released hardbacks for $2.00 and older hardbacks for .50 cents & $1.00! All paperbacks are .25cents, but I love the hardbacks on my library shelves.

    Hello, my name is Tiffany, and I am a Jodi Picoult addict.

    LOL, every book of hers that I have, I've read at least 10 times, no kidding. Great books, and they never get old.
