Books (Page 1)

i started to post this same thing earlier but changed my mind.

right now i'm reading the new jodi picoult book "19 minutes", it's about a school shooting. jodi picoult is my favorite author even though her books have gone downhill lately. i think she's started rushing a bit just to get them out quickly. if anyone is interested in checking her out, my favorites are "second glance" and "keeping faith", but really they're all good.

i was reading "the memory keeper's daughter", i don't remember who wrote it. i got halfway through and kind of forgot about it.

i also love elinor lipman, my favorite of hers is "the inn at lake devine".

and my third favorite is billie letts, she wrote "where the heart is" but i like her other 2 books better.

i own all the books by each of these authors and i read them over and over.

Pollyanna? Is that the movie about the young English blond girl? I have seen the movie, but the only part that sticks in my mind is when she fell off the roof. I bet that's a great book.

I love John Saul, Mary Higgins Clark, Nicholas Sparks, and of course Stephen King. I actually like Stephen King's movies better than his books. I drove past his creepy house today

I'm about 20 pages into ".lisey's .story" by .stephen .king. I just don't have enough lumped time to really sit and read except when .i'm on the toilet () or in the bath (like that ever happens...)

sucks, because I used to read allllll the time when the new .harry .potter comes out, .aaron's taking the baby because I am going to read that thing cover-to-cover.

in the movie pollyanna (with hayley mills) she does fall from the roof/a tree. haven't you ever seen it, kia? that was my favorite movie when i was little.

i've never read the book but when i was little i loved all hayley mills movies, especially pollyanna and the parent trap.

in the movie she is punished and told she can't go to the church bazaar, but she's in a pageant and ends up sneaking out and when she's sneaking back in she falls when she climbs a tree up to the roof. it's at the end, it always made me cry.

I am reading Heavier than Heaven by Charles R Cross.
It's a biography of Kurt Cobain, I love it because It doesn't !**@!, it doesn't make him out to be a saint or a terrible person... tells it like it is

I just finished evey secret thing... can't remember who by and i'm too lazy to go check my bookshelf. Almost at the end of the lake of dead languages by carol goodman. I'm like you about books. i hate not having something to read! thing with me is that i can't stand to reread. i always remember everything! the only books i can reread are harry potter and the outlander series. I just placed a book order today, so by the time i finish immoral i should have five new books!

I just-- as in 3 hours ago-- finished .Girl .with a .pearl .earring, by .Tracy .Chevalier. I loved (all caps) it!
My favorite authors are jodi picoult, mary higgins clark, and janet evanovich.
the stephanie plum novels by janet evanovich are fantabulous. they're easy to read and very enjoyable and funny. i highly reccommend them.

White .oleander, .the .virgin .suicides, and .the .lovely .bones are all favorites of mine. They're all so well written and have almost a peace to them - like a beautiful pain. I can't describe it.

Memoirs of a .geisha is on my top favorites, too. Loooove that book.

Harry .potter is my ultimate re-read series. the .sonja .blue collection is right under it.

Im just finishing up Soul on Ice by Eldridge Cleaver then Ill read a book about the new threat of anti-Semitism, yeah I went to the library looking for a book about growing up in the playboy mansion and got a biography and 2 sociology books1

oh i love love love .james .patterson hes is my alltime favorite author. Suzanne's .Diary for .Nicholas is my favorite of his. And beach house.

oh and i adore .piers .anthony novels. .On a .Pale .Horse is amazing.
But i havent had time to read anything lately except my email.

Kay: .I have both on dvd - both were okay, but the books were much better. I haven't read ".here on .earth" though.

Oooh, I really like ".the .joy .luck .club" .i'm a sucker for asian culture. Japanese, mostly, but .any .tan is such a great author.
