    Just finished World War Z and I am sure my new book The Secret History of the Mongol Queens: How the Daughters of Genghis Khan Rescued His Empire was delivered while I am at work. Can't wait to start that!

    The Story of O, Pauline Reage

    Under The Dome, Stephen King

    Is Under the Dome any good? The TV series is atrocious.

    The Bonesetter's Daughter by Amy Tan

    I just started it, but I'm really liking it so far.

    The book was amazing, the tv series didn't do it ANY justice what soever. If you're a King fan, definitely read the book. It's very creepy, one of my faves.

    I'm currently reading Lord of the Rings by Tolkein

    The Story of O, Pauline Reage

    Under The Dome, Stephen King

    i picked up Under the dome a couple weeks ago from the library but I got so intimidated with how big the book is, so I decided to return it without reading a single line, lol.

    Under the Dome is OK. I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as many of King's other books. The show is...yeah.

    Reading: "Prairie *****" by Alison Arngrim (Nellie) from Little House on The Prairie. It's pretty crazy, gut wrenching at parts and hilarious too much of the time.

    Also reading the first book of the Chinese classic "Journey to the West" series. Lots of deities fighting. Enjoying that too.

    Reading Kathy Reichs mystery series featuring Temperance Brennan ....... (the inspiration for "Bones" on TV) ...... read 9 of them so far ...... just started "Bones to Ashes" ......... also like science fiction & fantasy genres ...... with an occasional cookbook thrown in as a change of pace.

    Thanks for posting these. I am always looking for something else to read.

    I am currently reading The Giver by Lois Lowry. It is a non-fiction work about a 12 year old boy living in a utopian society in the future. I find the story very entertaining and it is a very short book at around 200 pages.

    I'm reading this too, and it is amazing, I've not quite to the part where he starts talking about what to do, just the part about establishing the science.

    Have you been implementing these ideas yet?

    Cheers!

    The Giver is fiction, non fiction books are true stories. :flowerforyou:

    Wuthering Heights. Thought I would attempt it and so far so good. It's compelling even though I don't actually like, or can sympathise/empathise, with any of the characters!
