Whatcha all reading now??
I finished "A Thousand Splendid Suns" in Cincinnati. I loved that book, could hardly put it down, very interesting. It is about the life of two main women characters in Afghanistan and as you know, women are treated terribly there, so many bad things happened. It was especially bad when the Taliban took over the area for awhile..they are brutal horrible dangerous people. Even though many bad things happened, it was still a very good story. I kept wanting to know what was going to happen next and how it would all turn out. It has a good ending.
Someone here mentioned they were reading "Wicked" and I had actually just ordered it from Amazon. Whomever it was who is reading it, do you like it?
I had to get another book right away and my DD2 suggested I read "Twilight". I never have had an interest in reading a book about vampires and she said she didn't either, but she took a chance and bought it because it was so popular. She said she loved it so much that she devoured all of the series right away. So, I got it and..to my own surprise..I loved it so much I could hardly put it down and finished it in four days even though we were on vacation and very busy doing fun things. I bought the next one in the series and am loving it too. It has a lot of sexual tension, but it never gets graphic at all and it's so mysterious. I just can't wait to turn the page to see what is going to happen next. I highly recommend it. Hugs..I think you'd like it too!
So, what are you all reading now? Anyone reading anything different from the genre you normally lean towards?

Wow..five year rabies shot!! Now, I've never heard of that! I will find out about it though..I hope I remember as Shelby isn't due for another shot until next summer. I know, I'll put a sticky note on my calendar for next spring.
I remember your Millie having a hard time with her distemper shot. Poor baby, good idea not getting it again being that she's not outdoors anyway.
Donna - seriously if you do get James Patterson start with the Alex Cross mysteries.

I love James Patterson....Alex Cross is one of favorites.
Yes, that makes sense. I'm glad you were led back to reading by what NOT to read..LOL!!
I know Fran likes JP too, but I don't usually like murder books, so I may not like them; but am willing to give one a try. Thanks for the tips!
Keep reading!!

Hey while you are battering me to death on this - remember - the first time you come to something and people are reading 4-8 books a week - something I've never heard of let alone done - I tended to think you gals had nothing to do - think of it from my perspective - and did you finish reading the paragraph?
