Books - what are you reading? (Official Book Thread)

[Desirous]

Me too...i'm a romantic-horror...regular horror and sci fi fan myself. HUGE Ann Rice and John Saul fan. those 2 and Brown round out my top 3 fav authors.

I don't know if I have a fave author I like Julian Barnes a lot and Oscar Wilde. I guess they'd be my fave, if I had to choose.

i read them but obviously don't let them distort my views. he's always admitted that his work is strictly fiction and should only be taken as such...

Yep - it's entertainment. Like Coli lol there are some non-Christian-like threads on here, but it's something to do to pass time...not to change your beliefs/core morals.

I'm the same way. I'll read book after book, then I take a long break from reading.

Do you like it? I know it's a classic, but I didn't really love that book when I read it. Maybe I was too young to appreciate it.

I literally just started (2pagez)

Omg Hosseini has a new book???? I am in LOVE with a thousand splendid suns. Amazon, here I come! Do you like it so far?

It's interesting you started this. I actually started a book list today that I can refer to and add to because I always forget when I say I'm gonna read something.

I didn't know he had a new one either lol

A Thousand Splendid Suns is my favourite book - the movie coming out too

Not to derail, but do y'all have a library card? A kindle? Or you straight old school buying from a book store?

I am trying to read LOTR because I love the movies. It is proving to difficult to get into. So my next book is "Five days at Memorial"

Bible and skeletons of the zahara

Got a few beerstein bears books as well

I loved Bearstein Bears

I have an iPad, but I like reading actual books. I love flipping pages and the smell of books. I'm old school. I probably have my library card somewhere, but I haven't been to a library in years to be honest. I just buy whatever I want to read...I don't read in great volume anymore, so I'm not buying 40 books a year or anything like that.
