What Book Are You Reading?

Mrs. P · July 11, 2006

I'm another one of those who "has issues" with books. The other day I mentioned to my DH that I had stopped in the used bookstore to waste some time. His immediate response was "where are they?" He knows me well I'll read just about anything...cereal boxes, phone books....

I just finished The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd and I'm currently reading The Rescuer by Dee Henderson. This is the last book in a series about six siblings who are all in public service type jobs...fireman, hostage negotiator, U.S. Marshal, etc. I'm waiting for the sixth Harry Potter book to come out in paperback this month.

MoOrLess --- They are making a movie out of The Time Traveler's Wife. I can not imagine how they will do the book justice. But, I will go and see it.

Another thought for you paperbackers... Unless you HAVE to have the paper back... have you tried Amazon? Often you can find hardback books that are fairly new for paperback prices. I buy the used hardbacks often because i just can't wait for the paperbacks to come out.

Just finished Jonathon Kellerman's Rage, and Nora Robert's Blue Smoke. I read all of Kellermans, although I prefer the Alex Delaware series. Some of Nora Roberts I really like, others, I cannot ever get into. This one I liked. Today I started a book my Mom gave me. Actually she gave me 7 books by the same woman, Susan Wiggs, the one I started today is called Table for Five. I was planning to buy the new Janet Evanovich, but will read these first since I have started now. I love the Stephanie Plum series. There is a similar series, by another author with the last name of Strohmeyer...with a hairdresser/crime fighter/journalist named Bubbles. I also read all of Stephen White's. Too many books, and too little time,however if I would get off the computer......Enjoy your books!
