    I listened to the Hunger Games series and loved them all! Can't wait for the movie!

    I'm currently reading What Alice Forgot - gotta say it's weird so far...

    I've got Storm Front (1st Dresden file book) started on e-Reader.

    Is anyone on Goodreads?

    I am on goodreads. If I'm not on here I'm on there. But this year I have been a bit slack with reading. Exercise, work and study have taken up some of my reading time.

    I'm currently reading The Ghost Bridges by John Scalzi and listening to Fragile by Lisa Unger in the car.

    I recently read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, never read it before, it was OK. Just finished The Sellout by Paul Beatty -- heavy duty satire, some of it is very funny. Right now I'm reading Gumption by Nick Offerman. Again, its pretty funny in parts.

    My daughter bought Chrissie Hynde's book "Reckless" for me at Christmas. I am trying to read it right now. It is excruciating. Chrissie Hynde is no author. The book is full of grammatical errors. The writing is sophomoric. Unfortunately, I don't want to disappoint my daughter. Going to read this as fast as I can and move on.

    I'm reading The Maze Runner by James Dashner. It's petty good so far. Haven't watched the movie yet, waiting to finish the book.

    I'm reading the Harry Potter series. First time. Good stuff. I've recently read Wild, which was decent, and the 4th installation in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series by the new author, loved it!

    I'm reading Double Feature by Owen King. The books is okay, but for me it's somewhat hard to read and follow. Double Feature is my first read by Owen King. Maybe the more I read it the better in following the book for me. I think I'm passed the halfway mark of the book.

    I just finished reading "The Martian", and can easily classify that book as one of my all-time favorites. During my masters degree in space systems engineering, we studied the steps required to survive on Mars, so to read all those same steps and more in a novel was extremely gratifying. I can't wait to watch the movie.

    Recently started The Curious Incident of the Dog in Night-time by Mark Haddon. Basic plot: an autistic boy investigates the murder of his neighbor's dog. It's written first person from his POV, which is really interesting.

    WranglerMichelle, if you enjoy that book, check out Marcelo in the Real World by Franscisco X Stork. It's also told from the POV of an autistic person. I enjoyed both these books.

    Nossmf, I hope to read The Martian soon. The queue at the library is still long.
    I recently discovered the books of Nancy Kress. Her sci-fi seems based on futuristic human experiences.

    I just started The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin.

    Thanks for the recommendation, @PaytraB! I'll have to add it to my list. It might be on there already . . . I can't keep 'em all straight. :) But I'll definitely check it out!
