    Oh wow, i didn't think i would get that many responses, but wow....AWESOME. I have to load my kindle up. You guys/gals gave me some great idea and i will check them out. Right now i have to start with the "the girl with the dragon tattoo" by Steig Larsson, I saw the movies and loved them and now i want to read all the books, 3 of the.

    Thanks Eveyone ;0)

    I have a kindle too - love that thing. I know these movies were AMAZING...so I can't wait to read the books as well. Right now I'm reading World War Z - it's actually a really good read, although I'm not sure how they're going to make it into a movie.

    The Dark Hunter series by Sherrlyn Kenyon. Funny boy meets girl, girl finds out boy is immortal and hates him, they kill a bunch of bad immortals, fall in love, live happily ever after - literally! My 19 year old daughter got me to read these and they are really a lot of fun to read.

    oh!! is there a new sookie book?!?!?! I didn't know that!!! make that 3 books that I will be reading then! LOL

    I'm currently reading " Dead Reckoning" on my kindle. It's the latest in the Sookie Stackhouse Series. For those of you that don't know, "True Blood" on HBO is based on the Sookie Stackhouse series. What can I say, I'm a sucker for vampire books. :smile:

    Hi!
    I love my Kindle, too- being a voracious reader, i can plough through a book in a few hours- so on holidays I love it now that i don't end up with like, 10 books to take home with me! Too much luggage...
    ( Mind you, i do miss that fresh "book smell", I wonder if amazon can incorporate that into the kindle somehow? haha)
    I just finished reading "People of the Mist" by H. Rider Haggard, its a lost race fantasy novel- highly recommended if you like this genre.
    Otherwise...I could go on for hours, but can recommend some of my faves:
    "Pillars of the earth" and "World without End"- Ken Follett
    "Oryx and Crake"- Margaret Atwood- some challenging themes but a really amazing read. I love anything by Margaret Atwood!
    "Foucaults Pendulum", "Baudolino", "the Island of the Day before" By Umberto Eco- i love everything by Eco, he's a genius!
    "Cathedral of the Sea" Ildefonso Falcones

    ...i won't go on, cause now I'm just nerding out. :glasses:

    I'm reading "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett. It's a fiction book about black maids and their employers set in the 1950s-60s in Mississippi. It's very good!

    I am reading Heaven Is For Real. It's a four year old boy's account about how he went to Heaven. The story is written by his father. It is so refreshing on how he gives his accounts of how heaven is. Check it out it will truly strengthen your faith. Oh it's by Todd Burpo

    I soooo want to read this book... hoping to get it soon :)

    Congrats on your kindle, and wishing you many happy reading hours.

    Am reading to and with my 8 year old son, and we're on the third Harry Potter book.
    I also just finished: Because They Hate, by Brigitte Gabriel.

    I read the whole Potter Series to my son. I miss doing that.

    Ya know...I love vampire books...and I love True Blood...but I didn't really like this book series. I couldn't get past the first few chapters of the first book. I just don't like her writing style.

    Temple Grandin is awesome. Have you seen the movie they made about her? It is amazing.
