    ATthousand Splendid Suns - another book by the author of The Kite Runner

    so far ok, I am sort of in the middle and he completely changed characters seemingly randomly, I am waiting to see how they tie in together

    Read Kite Runner several years ago...it was very well written and very hard to read (emotionally). Have not wanted to read anything similar. I read for fun, I get enough reality my job.

    It was definitely an emotionally difficult read, but also really good. I dont mind those sometimes, but I did not know what I was getting myself into until I was already into it! This one is also not a light read but not as bad....so far.....I have been waiting for the anvil to drop

    Maybe You Should Talk To Someone - Lori Gottlieb (listening to it)

    I'm pretty obsessed. If you like psychology but want more of a story feel instead of a textbook this is a really fun read. It's not real action packed though, much more discussion about why people do what they do and what it's like to be a therapist.

    Well, if Margaret Atwood says, so, it must be true.

    I like Lisa Jackson, Lisa Gardner, Lisa Scottoline, that type of thriller/mystery or maybe it's just a Lisa thing. :)
    But I recently picked up a book by Tina Wainscott called Until The Day You Die, an author unknown to me, but turned out to be a great book.

    Same here Reenie. I have every one of Lisa Gardner books and can hardly wait till every January when a new one comes out. I'll have to try Tina Wainscott.

    The Once and Future Witches by Alix Harrow. It is interesting. I can't imagine it ending well but perhaps I am lacking in imagination. Or have too much first hand experience with reality.

    The Client by John Grisham. Nothing like a 90’s comfort read!
