I need a new book. One that is so great that it takes my mind off dieting. Or one that is so great, it motivates me to reach my goals.

Calling on all readers to tell what great book they are reading or have read that they would recommend. Why did you like it?

    Almost done with Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. As both a twin and a college student, I can really relate to the main character, plus she's just so funny! Actually laughed out loud multiple times ... great read!

    Working my way through Game of Thrones. I want to read the books before falling prey to the (amazing I've heard) show. :) I'm just a few chapters into book 1, so far so good!

    The Prince of Tides.

    Very good in some places, but entirely too wordy in others.

    Clinical Kinesiology and Anatomy and Manual Muscle Testing.

    It's interesting if you're into human physics and biomechanics, or if you're in school for it. Otherwise, can't recommend either lol

    I just finished Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. Loved it until the very end, but still worth it!

    "City of Thieves" by David Benioff, the guy who wrote the screenplay for Game of Thrones. The book is nothing like GoT's though.

    It's about two Russian boys going on an adventure during WWII. It perfectly blends comedy and tragedy.

    When I finished the book, I closed it, and stared at the cover for a good 10 seconds in appreciation before I put it down.

    No offense, but I think I will pass. Proud of you, though!
