Just finished a GREAT Zombie trilogy by Rhiannon Frater. Wow.
That was a good series. The first book hooked me so much, I started it at 11 pm (terrible habit) and finished it at 2:30 am. I've read all the BDB series but it makes me roll my eyes. A lot.
I was obsessed with the trilogy. Did you BAWL in book 3? I was a mess. So great and action-packed.
BDB was very good in the beginning. It's dirty & cheese-tastic... lol, but I love it.0 -
Anyone on Goodreads.com or have the app?0

I am trying to decide which of my many books to read next but I am usually into contemporary lit. I'm really looking forward to Khaled Hosseini's new book coming out (author of the Kite Runner and a Thousand Splendid Suns).0

I agree with dirty and cheese-tastic the only book I really didn't care that much for was the one about Revhenge. For whatever reason I felt it was a good story, but really a lot longer and drawn out than it needed to be! All the others are amazing IMO!0 -

Yes!!!! I have all those books on my kindle shelf (and actual books and audio). Started reading Dunk & Egg stories and on the 2nd installment (young King Aegon prequel). Can you tell I'm obsessed and ready for tomorrow's premier?
I have Rick Riordan books. My daughter and I read all the Percy Jackson books together.0 -

I live in France so as such I watch very little TV, I am going to try and avoid the entire series then watch them all back to back online? (Some would say sad..........and I would have to agree with them)0 -
I haven't been able to do a lot of reading the last couple years...going to school for my associates degree in accounting (I wish I was done already!) I've read a lot of books..but I can't pick my favorite...I really like jodi piccoult...but I don't think I've expanded my reading as much as I would like...if I find an author I like I read a lot of their books....I need to start keeping a list of everything I read!Regosaki...if you had to pick one book as your favorite (it sounds like you have read a lot!) what would it be?
Bound for Glory by Woody Guthrie! How about you?0 -

I'm currently reading Sing You Home by Jodi Picoult, The Infernals by John Connolly and trying to decide if I want to finish Storm of Swords by George R. R. Martin. I put it down quite a while ago and I'm still angry.
Oh, I had a couple of "Oh no, grrm DITN'T!" but I couldn't stop reading. Now I'm salivating for the next two installments and even read his preview chapters from TWOW. He sucked me in good.0 -

Because her phrasing can be awkward, these guys are centuries old vampires but they use hip-hop slang, listen to rap and drive Escalades and she drops brand names like she's paid to do so. But the stories are entertaining so I put up with it. :laugh:0 -

Bound for Glory by Woody Guthrie! How about you?
I really don't think your alone in the regard that you don't think you have read enough books, everyone feels like that. A love of literature is a lifelong love of the written word, in our lives we will find dozens of authors that inspire and excite us. How many books you read isn't important, what'is is that you cherish each new book with the same energy and passion as you did your first. I love reading as it allows me free reign to use my imagination and it is a wonderful way to escape the real world for a short time. I agree with you in a way that picking one book above all others is very difficult, my answer of 'Bound for Glory' was more of a recommendation to read, I recommend it everyone I speak to about literature as I just think it is a fantastic depiction of pre WW2 America, it is a biting social and cultural commentary on a global superpower in a transitional economic phase of history, seen through the eyes of one of it's song writing legends.0
