What are you reading this fine Friday? 1/25/13

What are you reading and how do you like it? Any big plans, reading or otherwise, for the weekend?

I'm still working on A Game of Thrones. I'm loving it so far but it's going to take me a long time to get through. We've all been sick this week so I think I'm only 150 pages in.

I'm reading The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner's Dilemma, the last in a middle-grade trilogy. I loved the first one, but the second was so-so. This one has potential so far.

Reading 11/22/63 - enjoying it. Need to set it aside to get going on a piece of cake by cupcake brown. Really looking forward to it.

I'm reading Firefly Island by Lisa Wingate and really liking it so far. It's taking me forever to get any reading done these days for some reason, though.

I finished the first book in Nora Roberts' In the Garden trilogy on my drive yesterday and started the second one, Black Rose. They're perfect driving/running audiobooks for me right now.

After thinking I could hold out until my friend finished her copy, I broke down and went to buy A Memory of Light (book 14 in the Wheel of Time series) last night and read too late last night.

The Night Circus. I like it so far.

The Bridge by Karen Kingsbury.

Added a date to the subject, since all the old threads keep popping up today. Too much deja vu around here.

It's bunco night so I'm only reading wine labels.

In my queue though is my local book club selection Zeitoun by Dave Eggers. Also, I've been wanting to read Nothing to Envy. It's about North Korea.

I finally got the entire Outlander series on my Nook so I'm pretty sure that if I'm hard up for something to read, I can work on those.

Having finished The Woman Who Died A Lot, I have moved on to Captain Corelli's Mandolin.  I am really enjoying it, though I think DH may be beginning to worry how much.  When I head to bed at night I have taken to teasing DH that I am "taking the Captain with me."

This weekend is the end of summer/Australia Day long weekend here, and the last weekend we have before DH heads back to work for the new school year.  We have no real plans, other than to be lazy.  We've been invited to my in-laws for lasagne on Sunday.  Other than that, we're just taking it easy -- I hope to get a good bit of reading done.

I am reading The Mark of Athena but I think I am going to stop and find another book to read.

I'm finishing up Storm Front and am hoping to get around to Lola and the Boy Next Door this weekend.

Loved this! Wish I'd written it.

Posting late, but I started Megan Abbott's The End of Everything on my kindle and am reading Lemony Snicket's Who Could That Be at This Hour? in hardback. I always have one of each going, since the kindle is so much easier to read while babyholding.

I really enjoyed both of these, especially Nothing to Envy.  

I read The Laramie Project yesterday.  It was good.  I am starting on Cloud Atlas, but it's not grabbing me yet.  Hopefully it gets better soon.

Reading What Alice Forgot for my book club and really enjoying it. It's pulled me in right away which is helpful.
