    I'm reading "Sex at Dawn" about the evolution of human sexuality. It's very interesting.

    And before that I read "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" by Gaimon. Very scary/magical/weird. Good!

    Just finished the following books and looking for a few more to read this week.
    1. The English Girl ( by Daniel Silva )
    2. Inferno ( by Dan Brown )
    3. 15 Minutes To Live ( by Phoef Sutton)
    4. The Happiness Project ( by Gretchen Rubin)
    Since I have just finished them back to back, I am looking for another set of goods.................I have a huge collection.
    I love thrillers, romance and metaphysical books.
    I read a lot of books on parallel reality and life after death.
    My all time favorite is " Parallel Universes Of Infinite Self " ( by Frederic E Dodson ).
    I keep rereading it and every time I a discover some hidden gems in his written words.
    I also read ANY book on mind power and reality creation.

    Right now I have started reading " Life After Life " by Kate Atkinson.
    I will know what kind of a book is this only after reading a few pages..................the title caught my attention and so did the book description.

    Currently reading:

    The Hapiness Project by Gretchen Rubin - everyone should try and be happier :-)
    Modelling Variation - study materials

    Yes, I agree with you regarding the book " Happiness Project".

    Finished Magic Rises by Ilona Andrews a few weeks ago and moved on to rereading The Mortal Instruments. Currently on book two, City of Ashes.
    I'm wanting to reread the Fever Series, by Karen Marie Moning as well, but that's nothing knew. It's my absolute favorite series.

    I finished that last week. I'm reading "Good Omens" again. I loved it the first time I read it and need a good laugh.

    Also trying to read "The New Rules of Lifting for Women" by Lou Schuler.

    I'm reading "Good Omens" again. I loved it the first time I read it and need a good laugh.

    This is one of my once-a-year reads. You can't go wrong with either author on his own, together they're just plain magic. :)
