I´ve just finished "The Friday Night Knitting Club" by Kate Jacobs. The idea of reading about knitting seemed really exciting and it still does, maybe because I secretly hope to learn to knit one day but the book itself was not that enjoyable. I am not sure I am reading anything else but that author.

I am currently juggling Gone Girl, The Maze Runner, and I just started The Infinite Sea. However, my reading is stalled at the moment due to college. I hope to pick up all three and start reading again very soon.

Right now I am reading The Longest Ride by Nicholas Sparks. So far it is a fantastic story. I love how it talks about two different love stories. It seems to be the perfect romance novel so far.

I'm reading Cold My Heart by Sarah Woodbury and when I finish that I'll start a Sum of Flaws by Phil Penne, which is the next book I'm reviewing.

I probably should not have bothered starting another novel between reviews, but now that I have I can't stop. I am loving this book!

Currently reading "The Middle East" by Peter Mansfield. Almost finished it. A good overview of the history, especially in regards to the political organization, of the middle east. Works its way up from the 19th century with a focus on the Ottoman Empire, it's dissolution and then slows down to consider the last eighty years.

Right now, I'm reading "Firefly Lane" by Kristen Hannah. It is so good! I can really identify with the characters, especially Kate. I have about a hundred pages left, and I've already got the sequel, "Fly Away," waiting on my nightstand!

Now I am reading The Great Gatsby as I am trying to read more classics. So far I am hanging in there. To me it has too many words like a long winded person when your eyes start to wander and get that glazed over look. I'm hearing blah, blah, blah and wanting him to get to the point, lol. What was said in the first 60 pages could have been summed up in 5 pages or so. I liked his recapping better than the long winded story so far. Oh well…I am in it for the story so I will keep going as I don't know where it is going.
