    I just finished Love Anthony by Lisa Genova. Pretty good read, emotional story through.

    I just got back from vacation and managed to hit my favourite used bookstore while I was gone... I have 6 more books to choose from. I think the next one will be Circle of Fire by Keri Arthur.

    I'm reading Onion Girl by Charles de Lint. It is an urban fantasy. I've read it a few times and keep coming back to it.

    Had to take a break from reading ASOIAF, so I started reading Every Day by David Levithan today. I've only finished the first chapter and I already love it.

    I'm reading Pandora's Lunchbox: How Processed Food Took Over the American Meal by Melanie Warner.

    An eye opener now I'm on this path.

    Almost finished with A Dance with Dragons! Whew it's taken over a year, lol. Also, change my mind on Gone Girl I think I might start the Clan of the Cave Bear books again.

    I just started reading The Fault in Our Stars for the 2nd time. Preparing to see the movie next month. I'll be taking tissues with me lol.

    I love TFIOS, John Green is a big fav of mine (my second fav book of his would be "Will Grayson, Will Grayson" - which I think is a totally underrated book). Can't wait to see how the TFIOS movie turns out :)

    Lol, the more I think about it, I like Will Grayson, Will Grayson better :P - I re-read TFIOS the other day and was all "Uh, it was not as good as I rembembered it" - but it'll still be interesting to see the movie.

    I will definitely look into "Will Grayson, Will Grayson". I think John Green is great. I watched a few episode of Mental Floss on youtube and some other videos hes in.

    I just finished "An Abundance of Katherines", also by John Green. It wasn't as great a story as his other books but I absolutely loved Hassan. He's already one of my all time favorite book characters. I've now read all books by JG (safe for some colabs, short stories, etc.) and WGWG is still my favorite.

    Now I started "The Maze Runner" by James Dashner, also a YA book (for some reason, my current TBR pile is almost 100% YA fiction). It was recommended to fans of "The Hunger Games". I've only read a couple pages so far but I can already say that it is promising.

    The Maze runner is very good as well as the second book The Scorch Trials.

    I've just started the Goldfinch. Not sure if I'll stay engaged. Seems rather drawn out.

    Yesss, I finished it yesterday and was so tempted to run to the next bookstore and buy the second book. But I really want to get through my TBR pile eventually before buying any new books. Let's see how long that'll last. :tongue:

    I'm starting "Starters" by Lissa Price today. For some reason I can't get away from the YA lit genre right now.

    I finished two lovely YA books, "Eleanor & Park" by Rainbow Rowell and "Every Day" by David Levithan. They were on a "If you liked TFiOS you'll probably like these books too" - list, and I actually liked them more than TFiOS... Still love John Green tho :). Started out "Mona Lisa Overdrive" by William Gibson, seems decent enough.

    I am reading 2 books right now. These are both romance and about vampires. I have read both series and love to read them again and again.
    #1 Dark Prince by Christine Feehan
    #15 The Harlequin by Laurell K Hamilton. The 1st book is Guilty Pleasures but you have to read to the end of book 6 and then only the juicy parts begin. It gets better and better the more books you read!!

    I'm reading The First Rule of Ten (Tenzing Norbu Mysteries). They're sort of Buddhist detective mysteries. I'm not sure if I'm into it yet, but I'll report back!

    I've begun "The Poisonwood Bible" again. I really liked it the first time I started it, but put it down and didn't pick it up again. Hope to get through it this time.

    I really need and want to start devouring books again.

    I'm reading Living With the Dead by Kelley Armstrong. Not a massive work of literature but a good, easy-to-carve-through supernatural thriller.
