The Time Traveler's Wife. I never got around to it when first released ... now that it's been released as a film, I'm reading it. A great book, that is actually about time travel, I was surprised to learn. 8/10

[The Seeker]

The Lost Symbol -- Dan Brown.

It was very good. Don't know how much of it is true (though isn't most of the stuff in his books supposed to be true?), but I read it in one day. (disclaimer: Lack of an internet connection may or may not have had something to do with that)

[Lissy]

i like Dan brown although i have only read angels and demons.

[Farin]

^ but you know The DaVinci Code too, right?

if only because of the film

[Lissy]

I know about it but i am ashamed to admit i have never seen the movie or read the book. But it is okay farin i will borro it of my mate

[Levis]

Don't worry about it, Angels and Demons is the better book.

[Lissy]

than i shall read the book

[Farin]

I know about it but i am ashamed to admit i have never seen the movie or read the book. But it is okay farin i will borro it of my mate

no, don't worry about it. I was just surprised because that's the book/film it seems everybody knows of him, you know?

it's always the association "Dan Brown? oh that daVinci code guy"

that doesn't mean that it's the best of his books really

[The Seeker]

Digital Fortress (which no one apart from me seems to have read) is my favourite book of his

[TheLizard]

I've read it. It was pretty good.

[TheLizard]

Foundation by Isaac Asimov. 10/10. Possibly the best sci-fi I've ever read.

[RyanTurtle]

Just finished reading Dune for the fifth time. . . still my favorite book! Seems like every time I read it I get something new out of it. . .

Foundation by Isaac Asimov. 10/10. Possibly the best sci-fi I've ever read.

I love Asimov Tim. I don't remember if I read that one but when I was a teen, Asimov was my all time favorite author. Ray Bradbury was/is right up there to

I just finished the newest addition to The Wheel of Time series. Awesome !

Robert Jordon the original author, passed away but left notes for the last book in the series. His wife/ editor had Brandon Sanderson finish the series. She couldn't have chosen a better author even tho I was totally unfamiliar with him.

He last book turned out to be three and I can't wait for the last two. You can't even tell it is being finished by someone else.

As with most series be it TV or books they can get a bit stale. Brandon Sanderson seems to have breathed new life into the series without ruining or taking over the original feel of the plot line and feel of the characters. He has done an awesome job.

I guess he has been a Wheel of Time fan since he was a teen and has read the books many, many times.

Two thumbs up for Mr. Jordon's widow for choosing such an outstanding fill in for him. May he rest in peace.

!0/10 for sure

[Lissy]

[Farin]

certainly not easy reading though, I guess

[Lea]

I am listening to the newest Dexter book. Dexter by Design. So far it is up to par with the other books in this series

Good thing I'm listen and not reading or I'd be getting nothing else done

I love Dexter

[Uncle Joe]

I hear he's lookin' for a new mate.

After reaidng some three or four short books of Amélie Nothomb and not being quite satisfied, I'm reading a novel by Daniel Pennac, the past Nobel Prize... I wonder if I'll like it...

[MuzikTyme]

If you don't like it, edna, then I'll wonder why Pennac received a Nobel.

Kinda like... okay, I'll shut up.

[edna]

Because the guys from the Nobel Awards didn't ask me... had they done it I would have said Jorge Luis Borges and Albert Cohen, both posthumous.

[JackieBlue]

Just finished Wifey by Judy Blume

I'd give it 4 out of 5 stars.

[Lea]

I am listening to the newest Dexter book. Dexter by Design. So far it is up to par with the other books in this series

Good thing I'm listen and not reading or I'd be getting nothing else done

I love Dexter

Forgot to rate it after I finished it 5/5.

It kinda went down hill. Thats why it got a soso rating. To much talk and not enough action.

I just finished "Push" by Sapphire. It's the book that the movie "Precious" is based on. 9/10. Very heartbreaking, eye-opening, and engaging. I read 3/4 of it in one sitting. Granted, it has less than 200 pages, but still, that's how engaging it was.

[Shawna]

crikey, I'm still creeping my way through "Lady Chatterley." My, my, but there's some colorful language in that book!

It's very up-front about talking about the "c" word, and tosses around the "f" word toward the middle of the book... but when it comes to describing the Big O, it gets very delicate, and mutters something to the effect of, "When Mellors reached his crisis," etc. as if that's the more offensive word.

[Shawna]

Finally finished "Chatterley" a couple of days ago. Not a fan of the ending. I guess I'm just not literati enough to get it. *sigh*

On to Jane Eyre now. First couple of chapters are fairly shocking. As much as I've heard about this character, I never knew she was an abused orphan. Sheesh. But I just love the flowery writing style of Charlotte Bronte.
