Good Reads Girls...
...thank you for adding comments/reviews to your books when you're done reading them - I LOVE seeing what you guys have to say or thought about certain books! It's really helpful in deciding if I want to join you in reading them too.
I suck at blogging of any kind but I am actually really into checking in and updating my account over there and I've been loving seeing what all the rest of you Sweet Shoppers are reading too! R

I am seriously addicted to Good Reads!! I love being able to add any book I think looks interesting to my "to read" list so I don't forget about it. I love some of the groups they have also, they are a great way to find new books! Not to mention the never ending trivia game is a blast, even though I suck at it. LOL

I suck at updating... oh wait. That would mean I have to actually read a book.... LOL
I am reading Danielle Steel's Honor Thyself right now for an easy read. It's okay so far. I need to get into some of the other books I have waiting for me but I'm just too darn tired to read when I get done doing motherly/housewife stuff at night.

So hey... can any of you convince me to read either of Ken Follett's books? I'm always tempted to pick them up when I'm at the bookstore but they look gigantic so I always go with something lighter instead. I felt the same way about The Other Boleyn Girl and was pleasantly surprised by how awesome it was and what a fast read it ended up being - I read it in just 3 days.
Would love to hear from anyone who's read A World Without End or Pillars of the Earth... R

I loved Pillars of the Earth. It was a great story, had a well described setting, interesting well developed characters and is historically accurate almost on everything.
I didn't really care for World Without End though

I am reading Pillars right now and really enjoying it, it is a whale of a book though at 900+ pages, but sucked me in and is keeping me interested, there are a couple things that are annoying me, but if you like historical fiction, then I would recommend it!!
