I am a work at home mom who loves to read. I have read about 25 books this year, and hope to read a few more in the next couple of weeks. Help me decide which ones are next!

  • Middlesex: A Novel
    • Rated 5 stars

    I read this book about 6 years ago, before Oprah discovered it, and loved it. What a strange and interesting perspective. I highly recommend it. If you are only reading one book this year, let it be this one.

  • An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir of Moods and Madness (Vintage)
    • Rated 3 stars

    I picked this one up after seeing her on Oprah this fall. Having some second hand experience with Bi-Polar, I found it incredibly enlightening to hear from the author's perspective. I feel like I can understand a family member much better after reading this one.

  • Veil of Roses
    • Rated 3 stars

    I just grabbed this one from Target one morning and read the entire thing by that evening. I enjoyed seeing the perspective of a woman who valued the freedoms in America that I often take for granted.

  • The Pact
    • Rated 3 stars

    I enjoyed the story, and it made me think about what I would do in such a situation. But, as with every Jodi Picoult novel I have read so far, it is extremely far fetched and romantic in its ending, which I kind of find annoying after reading the whole story.

  • The Death of Vishnu: A Novel
    • Rated 2 stars

    Read this one for my book club. Not huge on it, but I learned a lot about the culture in the process.
