    I try to alternate fiction and nonfiction or read them simultaneously. I just finished Five Days at Memorial by Sheri Fink and The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein. About to start Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution by Steven Levy and The Persecution of Mildred Dunlap by Paulette Mahurin.

    Hi everyone

    I'm currently reading Me before You by JoJo Moyes, its an emotional rollercoster of a book, sometimes your laughing, sometimes your crying. But i'm really enjoying it, would recommend it to anyone.

    Glad to hear it - I've had this on hold at the library for a while.

    I finally came up for this at the Library - and finished it the other day. Best book I've read in a long time - really made you think and evaluate things. I laughed out loud and cried - perfect combo :)

    The Crimson Petal and the White- by Michael Fabre. The story of a nineteen year old prostitute in 1870 's London.

    There is also a mini- series based on the book which I'm looking forward to watching after I'm done reading the book.

    I loved the Crimson Petal and the White. And my daughter did too!

    I just finished This Star Won't Go Out by Esther Earl. She is the 16-year-old girl that John Green met and was inspired by to write The Fault in Our Stars.

    Maine by Courtney Sullivan. Great read, but stirs up some uncomfortable emotions. It is a very human novel. :-)

    Just finished No Short Cuts to the Top by Ed Visters. It was about climbing all 14 of the 8000 meter peaks over the course of 18 years. Amazing!

    I'm re-reading the brilliant THE BOOK THIEF by Markus Zusak before the film's released in the next few weeks. Highly recommend it.

    I'm incapable of reading just one book at a time so I'm also in the middle of:

    - GAME OF THRONES (Book 1) by George R. R. Martin - struggling with this beast!
    - THE EMERALD ATLAS by John Stephens - good but I'm not in love with it

    And last night I finished THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO by Stieg Larsson. Brilliant but very disturbing book.

    I love seeing people reading some of my favorite book series and hope they enjoy them as much as I did! (Dark tower, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones).

    I'm currently reading The Allegiant, but I am really looking forward to reading "The Companions" by Salvatore! I cannot wait to get back with my old friends in the Drizzt series!

    I read very fast so I typically have more than one book going at a time. I'm reading Year Zero, (Oddly honest aliens have been pirating Earth's music for some years and realize they need to pay for it. When they tally the costs it will bankrupt entire planets to pay so a faction decides the be best way to get out from under it is to destry the Earth. Think Douglas Adams crossed with Terry Pratchet but a little drier and slighlty less funny.), I just started Cyber Storm by Matthew Mather. I'm part way through The Bones of Odin by David Leadbeater. It is sort of like that National Treasure movie w/ Nick Cage only image the lead character is former special forces and played by someone more muscle bound and physical than Nick Cage. I started the Long War by Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter but it wasn't as good as the Long Earth and I don't think I'll finish it. I started on the Definitave H.P. Lovecraft: 67 Tales of Horror, but I needed a break. I was also half way through Star Soldiers by Andre Norton but it was a little tedious with I never thought I would ever say about her. I am also reading The Hen of the Baskervilles by Donna Andrew and The Ghoul Next Door by Victoria Laurie, both 'light' murder mysteries.

    Vince Flynn has a great series of books with Mitch Rapp. If you like that try Lee Child. His 'Jack Reacher' series is stunning.
