    I love to read and was recently visiting a friend who loaned me the first of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J. R. Ward. It's about warrior vampires, not my normal stuff... but I can't put them down!!! I'm on book 3 already!! Vampire smut... but well done!

    I've re-read the Twilight series each time a new movie comes out, so 4 times now... probably will again before the last movie releases. Loved the HP series as well. Still looking forward to the Hunger Games series, hopefully soon before that movie comes out. Yes, I like the books better, but I do like seeing what they come up with for movie adaptations.

    Oh, and I'm doing a challenge at church to read the entire Bible this year. We're doing it chronologically... so far it's awesome and I'm reading the Message version so it's more contemporary and I'm finding it easy to read and understand that way.

    "V" is for Vengance by Sue Grafton. I started with "A" is for Alibi and now I wait every year for the new book to come out. V came out in November and I got it for Christmas.

    I am about a quarter of the way through IT (Stephen King), much better than the film.

    A million times better than the film.

    Nothing at the moment; I guess Sizzlin' Sixteen by Janet Evanovich has about fifty or so pages left from when I ... kinda stole it from the library four states away. I've read almost all her stuff, but I like Jeffery Deaver [yeah, the guy who wrote The Bone Collector] better.

Check it out if you get the chance. you won't believe this really happened to someone. http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/piece-of-cake-cupcake-brown/1103292580?ean=9781400052295&itm=1&usri=a+piece+of+cake (doubt the link will work - cut/paste into your browser)

    I had the most awful nightmares when I read that book.

    100% agree with you on that. The book is incredible. The movie? Not so much!

    I have read The Hunger Games trilogy as well! It's amazing

    Reading a couple of books. On audio (for my morning commute) I'm reading "The Girl Who Played with Fire" by Stieg Larsson. On my Kindle I'm reading "World War Z" by Max Brooks. They're both pretty good.

    I just finished "The Magicians" by Lev Grossman which was a fun read and also "The Hunger Games" Trilogy by Suzanne Collins which was also pretty stellar.

    Have you read Firefly Lane by Kristen Hannah? You'll love it more than Winter Garden. An extraordinary story of friendship but you will need the box of tissues!

    If you like kids fantasy you should definitely try the Hunger Games Trilogy. Best young adult books writtenin ages, seriously. Beautiful.

    My daughter had me read The Hunger Games with her. I finished it and just bought the second one - Catching Fire and have moved on without her...lol.

    She wanted me to read it with her because the movie is supposed to be coming out in March of this year. Can't wait. Such a big kid:)

    Just finished reading The Help a few days ago, so last night I watched the movie. While they were both good, the book was better. It was almost like watching a different story though.

    Before that I read The Room, which was weird but good.

    For the next few months I probably will only have time to read text books though.

    Reading the last book of the Game of Thrones series.


    I am on book 4 of the A Song of Fire and Ice series...however, I do have a question, how can you be on the last book if he hasn't even written it yet? I believe there are supposed to be 7 books and he just released the 5th book? I was just wondering! Didn't mean to sound rude or anything:flowerforyou:
