    Reading Tina Fey's Bossypants on my Libre e-reader


    I have a major girl-crush on Tina Fey. Love her!

    Hate to be a party pooper but Tina Fey in real life is not as wacky and fun-loving as she is in front of a camera. My boyfriend works at Disney World and when he first started part of his job was to escort any celebrities that came into the park and make sure they had a good time. She basically wore him out, she complained about everything, she was terribly snarky (he didn't recognize her at first and she had a huge fit about it then kept bringing it up) and she curses worse than a sailor with a hangnail. And really, the way you treat someone who is serving/below you says volumes about who you are.

    *ahem* back on topic...

    Currently reading two books, "The Night Circus" by Erin Morgenstern and "The Woman In Black" by Susan Hill. Both are regular books, I don't like Nooks or Kindles and I don't do anything that warrants an audio book. The former I picked up on a whim because I liked the cover, the latter is because I saw the newest movie for it and I like comparing the visuals of written word to cinema.

    I enjoyed the Hunger Games trilogy, but I also had some issues with it... I'm currently reading the latest Dresden Files book, in hard cover. Ghost Story. I'm not finding it as accessible as the rest of them, but I think that's because I'm not entirely thrilled with the premise.

    I also got very excited for a moment, because when I saw Lamb, I thought you guys were talking about the book Lamb, by Christopher Moore, which was a very excellent book, indeed.
    I LOVED Ghost Story.....I read it, cried for half an hour, and immediately started it over again. Harry Dresden is one of my favorite characters of all time (and I have lots of favorites)

    The Hunger Games seems popular. Looks like a good read but I'm going to go audio so I can "read" and run. :love:
    Thanks y'all.

    "Sojourn," the third book of the Dark Elf Trilogy by RA Salvatore, in paperback. Because I'm a dork.

    I love Salvatore's Dark Elf books. I have the whole collection and with book 12 waiting for me after finishing a Hamilton SF trilogy. Now don't get me started on Pratchett... I suppose I'm really into the sf/fantasy genres :)

    I read that title and was a bit confused until I figured out that you meant "what format?".

    I refuse to read books on electronic devices, so it's real books all the way for me. Right now, I'm reading:

    In The Woods by Tana French
    Spooner by Pete Dexter
    The Fortress Of Solitude by Jonathan Lethem
    Dog Blood by David Moody

    I also just got my shiny, new BBC versions of the first two Sherlock Holmes books in the mail.

    Witch World by Andre Norton paperback

    The Gods of Mars by Edgar Rice Burroughs Kindle

    The Sharing Knife by Lois McMaster Bujold iPhone Audible

    Seeing the ads for the movie John Carter started me on a scifi/fantasy kick. Especially the old ones that inspired the movie.
