    Dragonfly in Amber (2nd book in the Outlander Series) by Diana Gabaldon. Super good read and very addictive. The 1st book in the series came out in 1991 and there's like 7 in it now...can't believe I never knew about these books before!

    Love this series!

    I am re-reading Fall of Giants by Ken Follett. The second book in the series is coming out this fall, and I want to have the characters in mind before I read the second part. I love his books...he's pretty much ruined me for other authors.
    Can't wait for the second book to come out

    Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain

    Death Without Company by Craig Johnson (part of the Walt Longmire series)

    Man Eaters of Kumaon by Jim Corbett

    I usually keep a book in each room of the house and read whatever book happens to be in the room I am in.

    Bright from the Start by Jill Stamm, Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood and The Prague Cemetery by Umberto Eco.

    I just finished Iq84 by Murakami, Summertime by J.M. Coetzee and The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides. I loved the first two but didn't care for The Marriage Plot much despite liking Middlesex and The Virgin Suicides quite a bit. I would have rated it an average book had it been written by someone else but it was sort of disappointing coming from Eugenides.

    'The Invisible Bridge' for a book group that I belong to. It's long, but good.

    50 Shades Freed....really not the best series of books, very poorly written and very repetitive.

    At any given time, currently one of the following:

    Wool, a sci-fi series by a guy named Hugh Howey. It's more like a bunch of novellas. Read the first one, it was very good.

    Sherlock Holmes - picked up the collection for my Kindle.

    Game of Thrones - about to start book 3.

    The Daily Five - for work (teacher).

    Thinking the Impossible - a book by Spanish card magician named Ramon Rioboo.


    BTW: if you like sci-fi-mystico thriller stuff laced with a skewed sense humour, check out my Australian cousin's (Daniel O'Malley) novel titled The Rook. It's very good.

    The Rook is awesome!!!

    Thought I would chime in again since I read soooo much ;-)

    I am now just finishing Jennifer Weiner's "Goodnight Nobody".

    I read 3 to 4 books a month. I mean big novels, not less than 450 pages each.

    Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn

    Do you like it so far? I read "Sharp Objects" by her and thought it was really good so I'm wondering if I should give "Gone Girl" a try.

    I'm reading "Crossed" by Ally Condie at the moment. Love the story of Cassia and Ky!

    Hysterical - i just bought the Rook for my Kindle... as far as what's being read on there now - "Good Omens" - Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman for about the millionth time; "Heresy" by S.J. Parris (pretty good first book, looking forward to the rest of them); and re-reading the October Daye books by Seanan MacGuire to prepare for her new book coming out next month... oh - and listening to Atlas Shrugged audio book when i'm running or driving.

    I'm kind of a bookworm.

    I just finished State of Wonder by Ann Patchett - it's a wonderful novel about a scientist's adventure in the Amazon rain forest. I'm reading the Gospel of John for my daily bible reading.
