I am a stay at home mom and I love to read when I get the chance. Actually, that's not true, I FIND the time to read, at least 2 novels a month. I have read hundreds of books and will, over time, fill in my shelf with as many as I can remember.

    Yes, I finished it a couple of weeks ago. I had to stop reading it near the end because I was on a plane and didn't want to be blubbering and cause a scene. If you like dogs you'll like it. It's not going on my list of favorite books but I did really enjoy it.

    I just heard about a book that everybody loves, The Art of Racing in the Rain. Heard of it? I'm going to read it next.

    Finished Kite Runner on Mother's Day, LOVED IT! I got started so slowly, but once I had a chance to get into it, I couldn't put it down.

    Definitely check out the Southern Vampire series by Charlaine Harris. Make sure you get them in order or you will be lost. They are quick, great reads.. Very entertaining! Hope you have a great day!!

    I haven't gotten very far in Life of Pi. I have jury duty tomorrow, so I'll probably finish it! That is so funny that you mentioned Water for Elephants. My aunt just recommended it to me too last Friday and I have already downloaded it to my Kindle.

    I'm slowly reading it. I haven't had much time for reading and it is driving me nuts! So far though, I like it! I'll keep you posted.

    Have you tried paperback swap? You can basically swap books with people (to keep) for just the cost of postage. I did it for a while but then had two babies at once...

    Angela - Did you really like the Kite Runner? I almost bought it Half Price Books the other day because I saw you had rated it high, but, I just wasn't sure. Should I or Shouldn't I?????

    Very dangerous. I DO try to make time to read, too. Even if it's just a few pages a night. Must get ready for church, but I'll find Debbie.

    Hey New Book Buddy: I am just now finishing a Jennifer Donnelly novel, the last 100 pages. I will keep you posted as to "Shanghai Diary", I am sure its going to be wonderful, my aunt is my great book source and its rare when she gives me a dud!! Take Care, a big kiss to your daugher! Have you read any Harry Potter books to her?

    Hey Angela, little mama, check out what Christine writes, she is another good friend with our interest in books! I just started a new, old book from the library called "Shanghai Diary", about a young girl who leave nazi Germany and ends up in war torn China, so far it is very good, author is Ursela Bacon. I am glad to hear from you, lets not be strangers! Take care. Gilda

    Angela you and I are one of the same as far as our reading appetite, I love Nelson DeMille, James Patterson, Robert Tanenbaum. I've read all but the last 3 books of Patterson, all but the last 2 books of DeMile and 2 only of Tanenbaum (real oldies, but terrific). Try Patricia Cornwell, but read her "Postmortem" and "all that remains" first, I know you will love these. Have you tried any Harlan Coben or Greg Iles, that both are great also.

    Okay, I'm confused. I've added a few books, but, I can't seem to figure out how to add them as books I've read. Does that make sense? Any help?
