Minis On The Edge Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Have you read any good books recently?? It's Winter time and I love to curl up with a good book. I just read Alice's Tulips by Sandra Dallas (Bought it at the library). It was pretty good. What about you, have you read anything good recently??

New Day Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Right now, I am reading Maniac Magee for DS's book club. Before Christmas, I finished a great book - The Book Thief by Markus Zusak. It was sad, but so well written, and uplifting in a way, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I'm currently reading Bloody Mary the story of Henry VIII's daughter by Catherine of Aragon. She was quite a person in her own right. Also reading The Infidel. Wolfie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrellandmelissa Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I am reading a book I got for Christmas. I have read it many times before and loaned all my copies out to not have them returned. It is ok, I figure they like it as much as I did. I also recommend it to all my children and anyone else. OH, The title is "Men are from Mars, and women are from Venus" Melissa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiemae Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I just finished Bush Wacked. It would be funny if it where not so scary true! Assassination Vacation was also a good read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whippet-gal Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I'm enjoying an old copy of William trevor's 'The Boarding House'. I found this yellowed paperback in a charity shop. Before that it was John Grisham's 'The Broker'. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minis On The Edge Posted January 9, 2008 Author Share Posted January 9, 2008 Okay, Have anyone read Twilight By Stephanie Meyer yet?? I hear they are making a Movie about it too this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJEP Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 I'm trying to read Martin Pring's Introduction to Technical Analysis. Unfortunately I haven't had a lot of time to read--or energy to understand it. My father wants me to learn more about investments, so he loaned me his copy for a couple of weeks. I have to return, but just ordered myself a copy, so I can really read and learn from it. I also have been reading Wicked, but for some reason have not really gotten into it yet.

MickeyMiniFan Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Right now I am reading every book that my library has on miniatures. I have about 20 books checked out and have returned about 5. So far, I've only inter-library loaned from libraries in my district. The only problem is that not all of my DIY projects are turning out as well as the books. I'm starting to wonder if my projects are more expensive than their store-bought cousins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 Upstairs I'm reading C Everett Koop's autobiography and long-overdue Allan Paton's Cry the Beloved Country. Downstairs I'm reading Darwinia, a strange little book I picked up at Good Will that I'll probably give to DS#3, my sci-fi reder, when I finish. I also have two books on the origins of human thought processes; this piqued my interest since I'm reading Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors by Carl Sagan out in the camper. (I can't read just one book at a time, it isn't possible; I have at least one book to read on camping trips and another to read while eating, one for the livingrom when I'm resting my hands & fingers from needlework, one or two to read in the "library" and one to read in bed). Oh, and a book by Benjamin Franklin out in DH's truck! Y'all would not believe the stacks of books DH & have still unread. I just finished Joseph Wambaugh's Hollywood Station & Killer Pancake by Diane Mott Davidson (my favorite mystery author lately) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovecats Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I'm going thru my Patricia Cornwell collection again. I'm on the third book now. I need to find out where our local library is, i'd like to start going to the library again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiemae Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 My son has the first 10 book from the Disk World series. I have been reading them after he has finished. Just started the third book today. If you have read Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy and liked it, you would really enjoy these book. He is buying them used on Amazon. It is sort of weird to get book recommendations from a 12 year old, but I really like the books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
