    Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
    You so are not!? I hope it's abridged. I tried once... and I think I was on page 4329 and the lovers hadn't met yet. I gave up. It's also one of my most hated musicals ever. Hope you enjoy it tho.

    John Irving's "The World According to Garp"

    I found that book to be soooo depressing.

    Currently reading Driving with Dead People,by Monica Holloway. Over half way through. Writer is great, story is going in a complete different direction than the title suggests.

    World War Z - Max Brooks(?), 4th of July - James Patterson, and Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn (?)

    I just finished Gone Girl. Excellent book, but the ending PISSED me off. Ugh. :explode:

    World War Z. My favorite book last year. I can't believe what they did to the movie. But it kinda worked. However, I read the book twice. Sooo Good!

    I'm nearly finished with The Wars of the Roses by Alison Weir and I will move on to The Princes in the Tower next (also Weir).

    She wrote Princes first, but Roses is about the period leading up to that, so I decided to read them backwards.

    "My Life at Rose Red - The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer"

    A very small book compared to what I'm used to, and I'm slightly torn apart by the fact that I'm reading someone's diary, but this story has always intrigued me.

    I stopped by a thrift store and picked up The Big Bad City, by Ed McBain the other day when I had to take my Mom to the Doctor's office. I had read it years ago, but McBain never gets old.

    Because I work in the Children's Dept at the library, I'm reading the How to Train Your Dragon series by Cressida Cowell,
    but also, Hidden Girl: The True Story of a Modern-day Child Slave by Shyima Hall
    and,
    Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea by Barbara Demick

    I recommend all of them, including the dragon series, because they are all very good. The HTTYD series makes me LOL on occasion!

    Did you see the miniseries a few years ago?

    And maybe I'm reading your post wrong, but you know Stephen King wrote that book and it's fiction, right?
