I'm reading Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

SO good.

She's a beautiful writer and the book is very hard to put down.

I've read all the Outlander books. I'm always surprised by who likes it. I starting reading the series in ...1996ish?

I was re-reading the Kinsey Milhone series (A is for ...). They really are good. I read until K or something years ago but I think I'm caught up now.

Sadly...I've pretty much been reading kids books.

I really need to carve out some reading time.  I love it in the summer when I can.

One of my other facebook friends said that "The Descendents" (the movie with G. Clooney) was a great book, with an unexpected ending. Its on my list.

Im on book three of the Game of Throne series (the series is called something else, that is the name of book one). I read them years ago, but with the newest book released this year, I thought it would be good to reread and get back up to speed. The next book will probably be out before I finish catching up. lol. They are a commitment.

I just borrowed game of thrones from a friend. Haven't started yet.

I just read sweet valley confidential. It's sweet valley high, 10 years after college. It was pretty horrible but I loved it anyway.

They make reference to a SV University series. I'd love to find those and read them as well.

I'm rereading the Fablehaven series. I like it a lot, but I really need new books. There are only so many times I can read the same ones before I get tired of them.

I am going to download Night Circus next. Reading The Witching Hour by Anne Rice. Usually not a fan of horror type books, but this was a recommendation from a good friend. I am really enjoying it! Has anyone read the new Ken Follet epic? Pillars of the Earth was one of my favorite books.

Looks like for the reviews in night circus is that you will live it or hate it.

This is a lot of pressure. I thought it was magical and like time travelers wife, I wished it was my first novel. So much talent. I will say, pay attention to the dates at the top of chapters.

 ha, no worries. I had heard about it, but totally forgot. I just looks like many loved it or hated it. However, I always read reviews and do not always put too much into them. 

I liked the time travelers wife.

They say there is a lot of info, no?
