I re-read Gatsby quite frequently - one of my all-time faves! I am reading The Martian, We Are All Shipwrecks, and Whoever Fights Monsters. I always need more than one book because I'm reading in so many different locations!

Currently reading Origin by Dan Brown. Absolutely love the Robert Langdon series. The plot twists are amazing. You spend the whole book trying to put the pieces together and Dan Brown does it so seamlessly.

I'm also in the process of reading and rereading and preparing mentally to finish the Legend of the Guardian-King Series by Karen Hancock.
Thankfully, I do have the first three books, but I hope to get the fourth soon so I will finally (finally) know how it all comes together and ends. Sigh. It's been a wonderful journey. I don't even want to accept it will be over. Can only recommend this series (even despite the not-so-accurate-and-a-little-weird-looking cover).

Latest Review: Raven's Peak by Lincoln Cole

I just finished reading Raven's Peak by Lincoln Nicole. It was actually a really refreshing supernatural mystery, and I'm working on my full review of it right now! To be honest, it's probably going to be a 4 star rating for me.

I watched the movie and read the book, The Lovely Bones. Currently re-reading it. Makes me cry every time. It’s so sad yet beautiful and I think the ending was perfect. Justice was served by karma.

I'm currently reading Those Girls by Chevy Stevens, and Breaking Sandcastles by Kirk Burris. Both are really good so far!

Latest Review: Twisted Threads by Kaylin McFarren

Post by JodyVamp »

I am reading The Two Towers by J.R.R. Tolkien again. It's been a few years since my last read through and some of the details have completely left me. It's always amazing to see what pops out with each read and how it differs from the movie I've seen so many times.

I'm just about to start The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov, which I am quite looking forward to.
So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

I just finished reading <If Only I'd Listen To Myself: Resolving The Conflicts That Sabotage Our Lives> – Jacques Salome and that was an amazing book.
Now I've started to read <Black Tulip>Alexandre Dumas :)

I thought that a gripping read, really loved it. Hope you enjoy
I gave it to someone for Christmas, and have been regretting ever since that I didn't read it first. I plan to borrow it back off him at some point. :)

Latest Review: Dont Panic Its Organic by Dr. Andy Lopez

Post by Libs_Books »

I've recently finished reading Lost for Words by Edward St Aubyn. Famously, the author has never won the Booker prize, and this novel is about the process by which the winning book is chosen for a completely different literary prize, from a list which already contains some books of dubious merit. I'm not going to give away any spoilers about what wins, but I somehow doubt that this obviously completely fictional tale has endeared St Aubyn to literary judges. I've heard St Aubyn compared to P.G. Wodehouse – to my mind he is darker and therefore less side-splittingly funny. There is wit here, but not pasted on with a trowel in the manner of the great PGW. A thoroughly enjoyable read and not without depths, but I wouldn't put it among the greats. 8 out of 10.
