Don't remind me! I'm still working on a book from several weeks ago. Every evening I either collapse into bed or finding myself reading a newsmagazine. I need to do some "me" reading. I always like what you're reading, I'm going to check out those links ;)
We should do an online book group in here again, maybe with a chat time to discuss it? We could all post suggestions and then vote on a title. That would be fun!

"Babyville" by Jane Green, "His Mother's Son" by Cai Emmons, and "Flirting with Pete" by Barbara Delinsky. I'm pretty sure all of these books are going to be fun, easy, brainless reading :) However, I did hear that "His Mother's Son" is pretty dark. Anyone read any of these?

I almost never get time to read anymore. I'm in the middle of Kids are worth it! and Lonesome Gods (Louis L'Amour - not my thing ordinarily, but a surprisingly good book)

Adria,
Until I met DH in high school, I never read. I hated it. But, he had at least one Louis L'Amour book with him all the time. I started reading them. I loved them. I have since done two term papers on them and read the entire collection at least four times. I read one in about three hours so that does not take long. His writing is so decriptive, his people so real. My favorite is . . . shoot, I can't remember the name. The one about the pilot that winds up captured in Russia and escapes to return home via Siberia. Very good. It is one of his long ones. He also wrote mystery short stories.
