We got that book for my mom, can't wait till she is done with it so I can read it.

Right now I'm reading Handle with Care by Jodi Picoult. I seriously love her books. I thought My Sister's Keeper was a great book too.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Jen Lancaster books (Bitter is the New Black) and she had a book featured a few months ago on her blog -
I'm Down: A Memoir

Has anyone read this - I think this is my next book

I am currently reading...oh shoot, something by Jodi Picoult. Picture Perfect! I had to go look it up.

I'm kind of a huge book nerd, though my sister is moreso than I am and she supplies me with all kinds of good reads. I would highly recommend "A Thousand Splendid Suns" too! She uses bookmooch.com, and loves it!

I am reading The Bourne Identity. I figured it was high time I read the book my favorite movie is based on.

I am reading I See You Everywhere and it is not that great. I just got a notice from my library that the ebooks I requested are ready. So once I finish this book I will move onto The Book Thief.

I did just finish Pillars of The Earth for the 3rd time while I was waiting for my Nook to be delivered.

I just read Skeletons at the Feast (I liked that one), The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency (I love the tone of this), and the Harper Connelly series by Charlaine Harris (good, but I thought the last book was sort of like her last Sookie Stackhouse- just not well edited and sort of out there with the story line- not pulled together enough).

I just bought The Book Thief, so I am glad to hear everyone likes it.

I'm between books - waiting for The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society to be available at the library.

I've recently read The Help (excellent), The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie (not as good as I had hoped) and The Unit (thought provoking).

ETA: I loved The Book Thief. One of the most compelling books I read last year.

After watching Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, I had to go reead the book... and then I started to reead the whole series. So now I'm on a bit of a Potter kick... I seriously had forgotten how much I loved them!

But normally I do read more grown-up books! LOL! I have the first Sookie Stackhouse book on my Kindle, having trouble getting into it though. I also just finished a bunch of Jane Green books (great easy reads if you like british chick lit).

Im not reading anything right now. Im another who did not like Dear John although the movie does look good. I love Nicholas Sparks. I mean he is such an awesome author but I like his earlier books better. Jodi piccoult seriously does not have a bad book. I have read every one of her books. Love her!! I honestly cannot remember what book I read last though. Probably Breaking Dawn. I started reading one of my daughters books...it was made into a movie but I cannot remember the name. She gets mad when I read her books though because I read them in a couple hours and it takes her days sometimes weeks so I "ruin" them for her LOL. I have a few books to read still. The Buffalo Soldier by Bohj Alian and A Northern Light by Jennifer Donnelly

I'm reading the Black Dagger Brotherhood series by J.R. Ward. I'm on book 3 right now and I am totally in love with these books. I thought no series would top Sookie but these already have.....for me at least.

Yes, The Help is excellent. I read it a few months ago and then my hubby read it too. I'm currently reading Blink by Malcolm Gladwell and Dark Lover by J.R. Ward {slightly embarrassed to admit that}. I just finished Don't look Down by Jennifer Weiner and Left to Tell (about the Rwandan Holocaust) ... and several other books. I read a lot.

We were posting at the same time. I just started the first book two days ago and I'm a little over half way through it

I've been reading the Immortals Series by Alyson Noel. I'm through with the first three in the series and am just waiting for the 4th to come out this summer. They're a quick, easy read and are pretty good.

I'm going to have to pick up The Book Thief after all of the good reviews.

I just finished the Sookie Stackhouse series and loved them. I had tried the 1st book once before and couldn't get into it--not sure why, since I didn't have any problem this time.

I've read the Black Dagger Brotherhood, and I think they vary a lot. There are some I've loved, but others that made me wonder if I should give up on the series. She's writing John Matthew's story next, and that's the one I've been waiting for. I can't wait 'til it comes out!

I have The Book Thief...I had a hard time getting into it so I'll give it another go.

The Poisonwood Bible...it was just meh...sorry

I'm starting book six tonight in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. Totally not like anything I've read before....

I do have Teddy Kennedy's book started...I'm about half way done and I'm really enjoying it.

There is a new political book out this last week or so and I'm dying to get it!

Have you read the rest in the series? I'm a HUGE Alex Cross/James Patterson fan

I'm not reading anything right now. I just finished In Her Shoes, and I liked that.

I want to read the bible this year, but I don't own one and there are SO MANY out there that I don't know which one to get.

I use both NIV (New International Version) and NLT (New Living Translation). They are both in language that is easy to comprehend.

If you're looking for an even more modern version, The Message is also really good. It reads like someone talking in this day and time. I don't use it for every day study, but I like to read it to get a different perspective. And there are many websites that can give you a guided reading if you want to read the Bible thru w/in the year or a certain time-frame.

I'm 'listening' to Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver (it's what I do when I work in the mornings and everyone's still asleep)

I'm reading a few gardening books and The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer

Still trying to finish up #3 in Percy Jackson series as a preead for Connor..I'm giving up, though, and letting him just read it. I hate Greek mythology :P

Mansfield Park by Jane Austen - Not my favorite of hers so far but hopefully it'll blow me away at the end. It's hard to beat Pride and Prejudice so I am comparing everything to it.

These are the ones that I have downloaded on my ipod to read next:
Emma and Northanger Abbey - Jane Austen
Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte
The Scarlet Letter - Nathaniel Hawthorne
A Room With A View and Howards End - E.M. Forster
The Age of Innocence - Edith Wharton

I also agree that NIV is a great version for easier reading. I am a NKJV person myself, no idea why, but it's just the best fit for me.

Wanted to also recommend a study bible. I have a Women's study bible and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it, the additional information is amazing and the side notes really help me to fully understand what I'm reading! I'll look up at the publisher and version if you want!

Just finished The Help over the weekend, and it was excellent. I also recently read Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and am getting ready to start the second in that series, Catching Fire - they're youth fiction and really fast easy reads.

Thanks so much you guys! I'll check out the NIV and The Message. I went to Barnes and Noble a few weeks ago with a gift card burning a hole in my purse, but when I walked over to the religious area I was totally surprised at all the different versions. I got too intimidated and just left. :/

Jac, if you wouldn't mind, I'd like to check out the study bible too.

ETA: I loved the Time Traveler's Wife. I read it so I could see the movie, and then never went to see the movie, lol. I'll catch it on tv when it comes out, just like all the other movies I never get to go see, lol.

I think I'll be reading Stephen King's Under the Dome for quite a while yet. But as soon as I get my Nook I'll be getting Dear John too.

I'm actually enjoying the book. I had it out of the library over Christmas and didn't get to read much so just checked it out again..lol. Was pleasantly surprised to find my bookmark still marking my place. I also just started P.S. I Love You by Cecilia Ahern...I don't know anything about it, was just browsing the shelves at the library and it looked interesting. About to start reading The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. I'm never happy unless I have a few books on the go at once.

This is a great book!! (and yet another that is way better than the movie - I didn't even finish watching the end of the movie for this yet I couldn't put the book down)
