2 books at the moment. Ann Rice's book on Christ...interesting. It begins with Christ as a child inadvertantly killing and then bringing back to life another boy. Kind of funny to read, "It was Jesus! He did it!"

Also reading a book called the Conjurer's Bird. Pretty good so far.

My hat is off to you. I can not read two books at the same time. I get them confused, I have to read one at a time.
I love to read and always have. at the moment I am reading a series of books by Jim Butcher The Dresden Files series. Has anyone seen the show on Sci-Fi? If so and if you liked the show, you will LOVE the books. Dresden is a wizard that helps the Chicago police. I am on book 3 and there are 10 of them. I have them all.

I have a habit of reading more than one book at a time too. I'm reading The Third Angel and Perfume at the moment.

I read several books at one time too. Right now I'm reading David Baldacci's Stone Cold and I'm reading Anne Rule's A Stranger Beside Me.

What do you think about Wicked? I found it kind of hard to follow. . especially with the Animal vs animal thing. I'm planning to see it on Broadway though. . that should be awesome!

Do you read a lot of Ann Rule? I've read And Never Let Her Go. . but that's it. My sister is obsessed with true crime books.

I was just given Wicked, but have yet to start it. Post what you think.

Can't remember who posted about Gaimen, but I love him. If you haven't read American Gods, check it out.

Well this is the only book I've read of hers so far. I like it though. True crime really interests me and I find this book interesting.

Right now I am reading a raunchy romance but i love to read. I have been reading ever since i learned how. My fave author is V.C. Andrews but she writes very dark books. I love murder mysteries, they are my absolute favorite. I'll read pretty much anything that is fiction. Romance, romance comedies, comedies..blah blah blah.

It helps me break away from hard life and go into something else and live someone elses life.

Some awesome books to read are The Great Gatsby, To Kill A Mockingbird and Catcher in the Rye (but if you get this book make sure it's not the one edited for high schools because then you cant get the real meaning of it)

sorry..long post, i'm just a big reader.

I'm a big reader also,I love reading murder mysteries,romance and novels that have both murder mysterious and romance.

Just read a book called "Tell Me I'm Here" by a lady called Anne Deveson.

It's a story based on Anne's life coming to terms with the fact her son Johnathon has schizophrenia. It's brilliant but very depressing, and set in South Australia where I live so easy for me to relate to.

Worth a read, very eye-opening.

I just finished Echo Burning by Lee Child. Love his series about Jack Reacher. Now reading Double Take by Catherine Coulter. I read several books at once. Right now I have 3 that I am reading. One book for each room.

Many people walk in and out of your life but only true friends will leave footprints in you heart��.
