What is MM reading?

[whitemerlot]

I just finished Gone Girl (*) (*) (*) (*) (*)

[fuddyduddy]

The Feminine Mistake

[vtdiamond]

The Memory Keeper's Daughter

[SJ]

The 15 page thread about Republicans.

[mbcdefg]

My Dearest Friend (letters between John and Abigail Adams)

Once I finally finish that, I'll start on Elizabeth and Mary - Cousins, Rivals, Queens

[ejpint]

I just finished Insurgent, second book in the Divergent trilogy. It was okay, but didn't live up to the hype for me.

I'm about to start Gone Girl.

[Susie]

I've recently finished 1916, 1921, 1949, and 1972. This is the last one in this series of historical fiction. Each year is a pivotal year in Irish history.

[sratsey]

I'm also about to start Gone Girl

[Awkward]

The Historian. I read more than 3/4 of it on vacation 2 months ago and never finished it. It's an interesting slightly spooky read.

[Brie]

I just finished Baby Catcher: Chronicle of a Modern Midwife. Five stars. It was really interesting.

I am currently reading The Queen's Fool by Phillipa Gregory. It's okay. MIL gave it to me so it was MM.

I just downloaded the new Ken Follett sequel to Fall of Giants--Winter of the World. Looking forward to it.

[SJ]

I just finished the Harry Potter series and am now re-reading the Outlander series (I have read the 1st Outlander book at least twice before, but can't remember where I left off so am starting over)

I am also reading The Happiness Project and am on the waitlist for Gone Girl.

[Deleted]

Just read Delirium and Pandemonium. It's a YA dystopia series and I loved it. Can't wait for the third one to come out. Not sure what to read next. I'm slowly making my way through A Feat For Crows but keep getting distracted.

[justjen]

I just started Swamplandia, and also downloaded Beautiful Ruins.

I love this series, especially 1949, the one that focused on Ursula.

I'm reading Lilith's Brood by Octavia Butler.

I'm about 15% into How We Decide by Jonah Lehrer and I can't for the life of me figure out if I've read it before :-(

[carfar]

Read gone girl a month ago.

It was good, but so so so so creepy and messed up.

Started Night Circus a week ago.

[zombiemuse]

Waiting for my mom to finish Gone Girl so I can get it on my kindle.

I'm slowly reading a book about Queen Elizabeth I and can't remember the title. It's not holding my attention though which is really disappointing because I adore her. I don't think I'll read anything from this particular author again.

I do have a date with the library on Thursday so I'm hoping to pick up a good book. Bookmarking this thread for suggestions.

The Feminine Mistake

The FeminIST Mistake?

I'm not MM, but I'm in a foul mood and talking about books might improve things.

Nope. Feminine.

www.amazon.com/FEMININE-MISTAKE-THE-GIVING-MUCH/dp/B000YFEDKO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1347998739&sr=8-1&keywords=feminine+mistake

It has a lot of great points, but I'm starting to get bored with the repetitive messages throughout the book. It reminds me of the SAHM v. Working Mom wars that have occurred on these boards.

[mrshandy]

Accidental Billionaires

It's pretty decent.

[froggy76]

The Next Best Thing by Jennifer Weiner. It's just meh. I will probably put it down for a bit because I need to read The Kite Runner for book club next week.

[DarcyLongfellow]

I recently started the 9th book in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, but I forget the title. I've really enjoyed the series! Total fluffy, smutty fun.

I put down book 5 (I think) of the Game of Thrones series a few months ago. Once I've had a long enough break, I'll pick it up again. I love the books, but man are they dense!

I'm also reading The Happiness Project. I'm actually teaching it this fall for a moms book study at my church.

[Deleted]

Finishing up Storm of Swords

[Deleted]

I just got Gone Girl.

Last book was A Discovery of Witches, but it was due before I got done it. I haven't decided if I care enough to get it back to read the last half.

[Deleted]

I'm waiting for The Light Between Oceans to come in at the library. I hope it lives up to the hype.

I enjoyed these too. Were you surprised with the twist at the end of the 2nd book? I was pissed that I couldn't immediately pick up the 3rd to continue on.

Do you know when the next book will be released?

[Pilsy]

The Art of Fielding by Chad Harbach. Love it.

I loved The Historian!

I'm working my way through the Wheel of Time series. I'm about halfway done with book 8 now.

[jenjen]

Just started Gone Girl today. Finished The Boy in the Striped Pajamas last week for book club. Waiting on Fifty Shades Daeker through the ebook part of our library

Don't bother. I just read it on vacation last week. It's an open ending, so you have to read the next book to find out what happens.

I read "The Night Circus" on our trip last week and really enjoyed it. I also read Chris Cleave's latest book, "Gold." It was a decent read (especially if you're really into the Olympics), but I didn't think it was anywhere near as good as "Little Bee" or "Incendiary."
