    "Water for Elephants" by Sarah Gruen. I am a huge reader and I highly recommend this book, could not put down, and it was'nt full of crime and detectives like lots of books out there.

    This is one of my favorite books..such a page turner, although the movie was blah

    Like many others - I just finished the Hunger Games series. The movie looks kind of dumb, though...

    Mowing through Dale Brown's Dreamland series. Basically an aviation (Air Force) themed action series. I only picked it up because it was ghost written by Jim DeFelice.

    Read the first 6 and now starting (just picked it up today at the used book store) Satan's Tail. I have five more to go after this one.

    Decent time wasters until COUP D’ÉTAT shows up in paperback April 24

    "Heaven is for Real" a story of a three year old who went to heaven and met Jesus. Definitely a moving and thought provoking book.

    Usually am a big fan of Dean Koontz but haven't read any of his lately.

    Helen of Troy by Margaret George. Love the way she writes stories seen through the eyes of the that person. My favourite is her one on Henry VIII. I also have her Memoirs of Cleopatra and Biography of Mary, Queen of Scots, Elizabeth Tudor and Mary Magdelene (which isn't as good as all the others)

    I'm going to have to look at some of these books,


    The last book I read was The Other Boleyn Girl, by Phillipa Gregory, I love her writing style although I hate how inaccurate she portrays the characters although it really makes for a different story

    Just finished The Story, which is an abridged version of the Bible put in chronological order to read more like a... well....story. Now I'm half way into A Princess of Mars which is the book the new movie John Carter is from.

    Is A Princess of Mars any good? I was considering reading that next.

    I read a lot of sci-fi and I really like it so far. I hope the movie holds up.

    They are making a movie?? I had no idea! My first name is Dejah and it came from the novel back in the 70's. I guess this means I won't be one of the few with that name anymore. :-/

    Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. This is probably my 3rd or 4th time reading it. They are my "go-to" books when I get in a reading rut. Plus, I'm getting ready to go to Harry Potter World in a couple weeks! Yay!:happy:

    Oh, and for Hunger Games fans you should check out Veronic Roth's 'Divergent". It's another YA dystopian book. Very good!

    I recommend The Best of Me by Nicholas Sparks. I think its the best book he's written so far aside from A Walk To Remember.

    Star Wars: The Old Republic "Fatal Alliance"

    An outcast spec ops trooper for the Republic. A sullen padawan, turned away from the Jedi trials. A Sith apprentice, eagerly awaiting to turn on her master. An Imperial spy, praying the Republic's higher echelon does not discover him. A smuggler with a mutinous first mate. A Mandalorian Bounty Hunter playing both sides.

    All the characters cross paths with each, and must put their differences aside to stop a quickly growing threat that could wipe out the universe.

    (pretty geeky, huh?) :tongue:

    It was called Soul Eyes, I forget the poor author's name. lol. But I got it at the Dollar Tree and so it was good for a buck. It was about a psychic goddess lady who could heal people.

    The Food Revolution

    It's about the detrimental effects of typical diet on people's health & the planet. Highly recommend it.
