WOW! I'm very jealous (and feeling a little guilty)! You're all reading so much!!! I finished reading Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain and passed it on to my sister since that was my third time reading it. She's read half of it and loves it. For some reason, I find his narrating style very similar to Murakami's, so I knew that she'd like it. I'm re-reading another favorite ...

Barb , remind me of what Terry Brooks writes. His name sounds sooooo familiar. Jessie ! It's SO good to "see" you and a big relief to know that motherhood hasn't stopped your reading habit! Gives me hope for my future (no, I am not pregnant! But you never know...). Love reading your list and am looking forward to checking many of them out. Do you like the Sisterchicks books? I ...

JessieW replied 4 months, 4 weeks ago
Laurie, Most of the Sisterchicks books I have liked, although they're not great literature or anything! I'm actually giving away a copy of that latest one on the blog this week! I've never even heard of Olive Kitteridge . What's it about? Kim, I added Kitchen Confidential to my Paperbackswap wishlist. Sounds fun! I love food memoirs (not that you could tell that from my reading list...

anything Jodi Picoult, shes got a great writing style. Try The Pact or Keeping Faith. also, Eat This, Not That! Hysterical to see what you thought was 'healthy' is actually a baby step away from a heart attack!!

Laurie - Terry Brooks is a fantasy writer. He is best known for his serieses based on the Sword of Shannara. He has 17 books in different trilogies based on that world and then two other series that are good too. I finished the last 8 of his books very quickly and picked up some Stephen Donaldson and David Eddings today at the library. If I remember David Eddings is better so I'll start ...

I just finished reading -Julia/Julie. This takes place in 2002. Julie decides to cook 564 recipes from Mastering French Cooking by Julia Child and starts a blog (which was not that common then). I really enjoyed reading about her disasters and triumphs. By the way if anyone doesn't now there is a movie made based on this book starting Meryl Streep.

I just started Made in the U.S.A. by Billie Letts. It's a good summer read and drew me right in from page 1.

JessieW replied 4 months, 3 weeks ago
sophie, I reread Julie and Julia again recently, too! (Somehow it didn't make my reading list--oops!) If you can get past the language, it's really great. I am always hesitant to see movies based on books I really like, but I'll probably see that one when it comes out.

Kim_Star060404 replied 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Jessie: Just an FYI on Kitchen Confidential ; get ready for some language and a bit of "unsavory" behavior. I know you're a "big girl" and have read this stuff before, but I do like to send out a bit of a warning on that book especially. Anthony Bourdain does not censor himself even a little bit! Lol! Julie and Julia sounds like a great book; and probably a great movie as well. I...

beachgal replied 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Barb, that brings back some of my memory. I love David Eddings...he's quite the writer!

Oh, wow, Kara! No, I haven't read his other books, though I do remember hearing good things about Snow Falling on Cedars. I love Seattle, so they sound right up my alley. I'll have to check them out! I found out that the second book I mentioned earlier is actually The Day The Falls Stood Still .

Hey, everyone! I see that the thread has been getting some activity and that's great! I'll have to take some time this weekend to read through what you're all reading. We have a lot going on right now, so I've been taking the easy street when it comes to reading. I've been working my way through the Harry Potter series again and I'm on Chamber of Secrets right now. I'll probably read it through until the end...

I'm going to have to find those Jennifer Weiner books at the library. I love her stuff. Maybe I could try the Kinsella since it isn't a Shopaholic. The Shopaholic books make me want to break out in hives and murder the main character. But Can You Keep a Secret by her is one I loved. I cannot stress how much I have LOVED the Leisha Kelly books I've read the past year. There are five in the series (although technically...

I just finished "David Copperfield" (vintage version). It took me three months to finish and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I really enjoyed the Masterpiece Theatre Dickens series so when Mother's Day and my birthday came around my kids gave me about five Dickens books. I have to read something else in between so will check my pile. take care Sophie

_The Other_, so far (I'm about 2/3 finished) is about a friendship between two guys and how it developed over the years. The one guy came from money but decided to give it all up and live in the woods and the other guy came from humble beginnings and ended up being a teacher. They met in high school and the story has been following their friendship through the years. It's written in the first person (from the perspective of the...

A friend just gave me the first three books of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and I'm looking forward to starting the first one of the series tonight. I haven't had much time this summer to read!

Laurie - I loved Good Harbor . It definitely has some plot weaknesses but I loved the book so much anyway I definitely recommend it. It's one of those books you just have to share with your best friend as soon as you finish it

I just finished Boneman's Daughters by Ted Dekker. I shouldn't have started it at night - I stayed up way too late because I just couldn't put it down.......
