What are you reading at the moment?

Ohh. Good topic. I love reading. I'm really into suspense thrillers at the moment.

I'm making my way through Lee Child's Jack Reacher series. I'm currently reading "The Enemy". I've read 6 in the series so far and am loving it!!

Would also highly recommend Monsoon and the prequel and subsequent books about the Courtenay family by Wilbur Smith. Oh and there's a series by Charles Todd set post WW1 about a Scotland Yard detective who is carrying around ghosts of the past.

For all those Sci-fi fantasy lovers out there my favourite series that I still read every now and then is the valdemar books by Mercedes Lackey. The first book is called Magics Pawn. I have stopped reading the Robert Jordon Wheel of Time books until he finishes the series.

OK. I better stop myself before I go on and on and on and on...

I just recently finished 18 Seconds by George D. Shuman, excellent read about a blind woman who can see the last 18 seconds of life of someone who has died. This is his first novel, and found it well paced and kept me interested from cover to back.

Currently reading For the Love of My Mother by John Rodgers. Excellent thus far. It is about a young catholic girl who falls pregnant and is sent to a convent and fights for the right to be with her son. Set in Ireland during the 1940s-50s. Set on the journey of his real mother.

I love Marian Keyes and Jane Green. I also am really into Jodi Picolot and am re reading 19 minutes.

I've just started reading this (bought it yesterday)
Want to read it before the movie comes out!

Oh I just remembered that I bought Emma by Jane Austen recently cause I want to become a bit more cultured!    I started reading it but am finding the old fashioned language a bit tough (compared to what I am used to!)

If there are any that you don't have let me know I am a HUUUUGGGEEEEEE Lee Childs fan, and have all of his books. The Enemy was my least favourite, My favourite was Bad Luck and Trouble and The Hard Way. I'm more than happy to send it down to you. I love sharing books

I also love Jeffrey Deaver The Lincoln Rhyme series, he's great too.

I'm actually reading The Almost Moon by Alice Seabold, it's a lot harder to read then The Lovely Bones. I got it for Christmas and I'm still trying to finish it.

I've also half started Patricia Cornwells latest The Dead Book. Yawn! It has to be her worst. So I've stopped reading it.

I'm a big fan of Fiona Walker she is hillarious, and her characters are so loveable and silly.

I also love Mitch Albom. Tuesdays with Morrie, 5 People you Meet in Heaven is a gorgy book, and Just one more Day is just beautiful.

Ohhh I could go on as well, I love reading.

Ahem... I've got most of the John Grisham ones too

We're gonna have to do some book swapping. I'll swap you some Wilbur Smith for some Lee Child or John Grisham. Hmm, better check my book shelf and see what else I can lend you.

I love Janet Evanovich as well but she never writes fast enough lol.
I started Lovely Bones three times before I settled into it. I really "enjoyed" it in the end. I just had to be in a certain frame of mind.
My DH says I devour books as I go to the library twice a week & get at least 4 books at a time. Don't know how I manage with 2.5 kids but I do lol.
I'm reading - Claimed by shadow - Karen Chance, at the moment.

The Stuarts: Apparently Robert Jordan passed away last year, my partner is devastated as he has read all the other books and this was meant to be his last or something, he is holding out hope that his wife finishes off the story for him!

I love reading too and spend way too much time reading instead of doing the housework! Have been reading the Kite Runner its pretty good, very sad though
