What are you reading now?

I am on book #6 of a series by Stuart Woods. It follows the same main Stone Barrington) character thru the whole series. Almost hate to get to the end.

DH and I both read him and haven't found one of his books that we haven't liked yet.

Desinne: I read Lucky Man a few months ago on the advice of Ceci, and it was really good. (an eye opener)

I'm half way through the Joanne Lees story - she's the UK traveller that was abducted with her boyfriend in the OZ outback. The boyfriend was murdered during the ordeal and Joanne managed to run away and hide until the abductor had left and she could seek help. It's a powerful story about courage and determination to see that man caught.
The story can be upsetting at times, but the descriptions of her emotions and determination are an inspriation.

I'm reading And Never Let Her Go by Anne Rule. I'm only about 80 pages in. Haven't gotten to the murder or mystery yet. LOL! I hope it's good, I love this author but the book is starting to drag a little.

Crossing the Rubicon by Michael C. Ruppert
and
The Mystical Life of Jesus by Sylvia Browne

I always seem to get myself into these predicaments where I'm reading more then one book at a time. Well at least it is only two this time. Got a tad confusing when I was reading three.
LOL!

One for the money A Stephanie Plum novel by Janet Evanovich So far so good!

Vanish by Tess Gerritsen.

I'm currently reading Vanish, and I recommend it if you like thrillers. In fact, I recommend everything Gerritsen has written. I think she's a great author.

I love Tess Gerritsen I alos adore the douglass preston & lincoln child novels

I am reading two books-----juggling time. I have just started "Blindsided" by Richard Cohen who is married to Meredith Viera. It is a quick read about his life dealing with MS. His grandmother and Dad had the disease too.
The other book is a technical but beautiful book on dressage, my passion.

My DH started reading Carl Hiaasen and likes a lot of them. He gave me Tourist Season to read and I had my doubts, but I'm loving it. It's bloody and strange, but I'm laughing out loud at parts of it.

I'm also reading a very good book by Tony Horwitz called One for the Road. He also wrote Confederates in the Attic and a book about Captain Cook, both of which I thought were great. The current one I'm reading is about him hitchhiking through the Australian Outback. It's really, really good.

LOL!

me too! ..i'm easily distracted, AND I want to read everything yesterday! ...so i can't wait for the next book ~ I end up starting it early

I read religious Catholic stuff... currently (and since summer) reading "The Mystical City of God", Sr. Mary Agreda... it is an 8volume book ~ i'm only thru 1.5 of the 8... heavy stuff....

I'm also reading the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska... another heavy read... these books tend to be a place for me to meditate....not as much a 'story' that takes me for a ride...

I started a couple others over the last month or so..... but am trying not to get attached until I finish at least one of these!

I was reading anna karenina but got bored silly lol..For my job, I read A boy called It,, very sad but moving story. Tuesdays with Morrie another book I used for a group I Run at my job, great book. Im going to read his other book that someone else listed earlier, Just one more day by mitch albom.I read Lovely Bones not too long ago as well. Good read, different perspective of the afterlife. Another work related book, if anyone has a family member with schizophrenia or serious chronic mental illness is called ..The day the voices stopped by Ken Steele.. great but heavy, graphic read. I got some good ideas from this thread though of what to read next. Thanks

I have read all 3 of Dave Pelzer's books about his horrific childhood. Amazing he not only survived but is able to help others. A Child Called "IT" was heart tearing as was The Lost Boy. A Man Named Dave was really great.
I am currently reading Cruises for Dummies and Sacred Cows. Sacred Cows is a lite mystery. Really fun so far.

Love Hiaasen. You should try Skinny Dip. That was hysterical!

Confederates in the Attic was excellent. I haven't read the other one you mentioned, but I'm sure it's laced with wry humor. I've never been able to look at reinactors and not think "Farbs!"

Donna, I heard about A Boy called It before. Glad to hear something good about it. Sounds like something I definitely want to read.

"Super hardcore" cracked me up, and still does every time my DH mentions reinactors! DH is a Civil War buff, I'm not but I still really enjoyed Confederates in the Attic. The Australian book is One for the Road.

I should change my name to I Live to Read!!
