    I just finished the Fifty Shades series. I agree with the previous poster's assessment - entertaining crap. ;). Well, hot, entertaining crap. The way it was billed, I thought it was going to get kinkier than it did, and I wish it had. :blushing:

    I have Wizard's First Rule and The Mists of Avalon up next, but I can decide which one to start.

    Oh, a book thread. I will be in here often, I'm sure. Books are the only things I love more than chocolate.

    Let's see... recently read Gail Carriger's Soulless (fun Victorian-era paranormal mystery with vampires, werewolves, and parasols) and Leigh Lavalle's The Runaway Countess (sort of a gender-flipped Robin Hood in a romance novel). Right now I'm halfway through Robin LaFevers's Grave Mercy (damaged young girl becomes awesome assassin and gets caught up in political intrigue). Really enjoying that one so far. And for the non-fiction part of my diet, I'm slowly picking though Aine Collier's The Humble Little Condom: A History.

    The mfp forum, The Hunger Games (Once I get around to it) That other book everybody's reading (once I get around to it (this is true always, it doesn't matter what the book is)), and War and Peace.
    I'm in the middle of the last one, or close to the middle. It makes me feel like I didn't pay enough attention in history class.

    The Unnamed....a fictional account of a man's battle.....and here is where the novel gets fun....it is a tale of a man's battle with complacency in life...told through the eyes of a man who one day, gets up and leaves his job, wife and kids, and just literally walks out the door...and keeps walking....for the reader, the question is 'did he really walk away due to illness or searching, or is this an allegory about being 40 something, successful, and still not being happy'....a good read....for many reasons :)


    ~ How did the story end ?????

    I am currently on the third book of the Fifty Shades series. Honestly, I am fighting my way through these books. Started reading them to see what all the fuss was about and I really just don't get it. The books are very repetitive. I'm thinking of going with some sort of mystery or thriller next and hope that I will never have the read the words "apex of my thighs" ever again! :laugh:

    When I got my Kindle I loaded it up with some of my favorite readers and then found some new ones. I was reading CS Forester's Horatio Hornblower Saga (11 books) and that lead to reading about the Royal Navy, Horatio Nelson and Admiral Lord Cochran and that lead to finding out about Captain Frederick Marryat, who was probably the first author of Naval adventures and as a former Royal Navy captain during the age of the sail his novels are historic and fascinating I am currently reading his novel, "His Majesty's Own"

    I'm currently reading Lolita - a classic novel.

    I have just finished The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen

    And after Lolita I will be reading Pride and Prudice and Zombies which should be an interesting read!

    i cannot go past a paper book, I'm a bit old fashioned :wink:

    I'm not reading it yet but I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of World War Z by Max Brooks.

    I just finished Brave New World by Aldous Huxley

    WWZ is so good, written by the son of Mel Brooks...hilarious, he def inherited his pop's sense of humor.

    I read a copy of Brave New World that contained a bonus of Huxley's writings and that man was brilliant beyond his time. Wish I still had that copy so I could tell you what the name of that essay was!

    I recently bought a Kindle Fire and was wondering what everyone was reading to keep themselves "busy". I feel like this has really kept my mind off of food and yummy commercials fast food commercials and has helped me lose some lbs.

    I'm currently reading "Fallen" by Karin Slaughter, finished "No-one left to tell" by Karen Rose last week and part-way through "Half-Head" by Stuart MacBride, but finding that a bit difficult to get into.

    Is everyone on here (ladies-wise or even men :smile: ) obsessed with "50 shades of grey" as well? Can't say I've read it (or want to either), or even heard of it (up until last week when everyone was mentioning it on Facebook)

    I'm reeeeally looking forward to Patrick Rothfuss's books being delivered (in hard copy). A friend lent me 'Name of the Wind' (the 2nd book in the triology' to fill in an hour or so I had to kill. I read about 100 pages and now I'm really hooked and I want more!

    If you like books like George R R Martin's Game of Thrones series, you'll love this one. Different type of world/plot/characters etc and slightly better writing.

    I am very impressed by all these people who can read multiple books at the same time! I just get confused between story lines!

    I'm currently reading The Unheeded Christ, a book of sermons by David Cook. Only one sermon in, but its very challenging so far!
