I just finished Get Me Out of Here, a memoir by a woman who had BPD, Borderline Personality Disorder. I read it hoping to better understand a relative; it was so depressing. Next up is Marley and Me. I know it's not a new book, but new to me.

Just finished Somewhere. It is Jerome Robbins' biography. I recommend it for those interested in the dance world.

I'm a decade behind, but only recently read Tuesdays with Morrie. Morrie's words were so touching, and I sobbed at the end.

Just read Foreskin's Lament on a recommendation by my bf (there's a lady who works at my bf's school and this book is by the son she disowned) and now I'm reading Accessory to Murder lol. I love mysteries.

Just finished Beautiful Boy--A Father's Journey Through His Son's Meth Addiction by David Sheff, and Tweak, by Nic Sheff (the son). Then I read a really crap book called Obedience by Will Lavender. I DO NOT recommend it.

Currently reading Now You See Him by Eli Gottlieb.

I recently finished The Kitchen Boy, really interesting and could make a cool movie (unless they try to give it a different ending), but overall was pleased. Can't wait to make it further east in Europe now to Russia.

I'm now onto Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir...just started it so I can't say too much about it, but I think Henry Tudor is fascinating.

On the back burner I try to start Atlas Shrugged every so often, but it's so boring initially. I'll do it one day. Most people that have read it said it's life changing...not sure I have anything left to figure out but I'll give it a shot.

I have just finished an autobiography by Marco Pierre White,very interesting. And I'm now on the second book of the golden compass series,its really really good!!
I have'nt read a really deep or meaningful book for quite a while now,I usually have pick up put down types at the moment,and use them to relax,I have a lil girl,so I'm either dog tired when I get to bed and want to relax with something 'easy' or if I read in the day while shes having a snooze,I want to be able to put it down without dreading picking it up again as I've lost the mood on the pages and takes a while to pick it back up again!

SwirlyGirly · Mar 13th, 2008, 05:36 AM

I just finished We are All Welcome Here by Elizabeth Berg. It was ok.

Tracy · Mar 13th, 2008, 09:41 AM

I recently finished Remember Me? by Sophie Kinsella (Shopaholic series). It was really good and soooo funny!
Now I am reading The Boelyn Inheritance by Phillipa Gregory, it's good, I'm not too far into it.

Babydoll Chanel · Mar 13th, 2008, 02:14 PM

High Heels Are Murder - It kept me up almost all night, lol. Just got Memoirs of a Geisha which I've heard so many good things about.

I *love* everything by Philippa Gregory! She's an amazing writer.

Currently reading the Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon (sucker for historical cheesy romances) and finished reading Summer Sisters by Judy Blume... definitely a throw back to the past!

Just finished "Can You Keep a Secret" by Sophie Kinsella. Very cute & written in the spirit of her Shopaholic books. Light easy reading, which I love sometimes!

Still going on Love in the time of Cholera.
