I am reading "The Boleyn Inheritance" which is the sequel to "The Other Boleyn Girl." GREAT book, I read "The Other Boleyn Girl" years ago way before this new movie for it came out If you like historical fiction, it is fantastic.

Yay, she has a new book out? I liked her Shopaholic books but I prefer her other books. I thought 'Can you keep a secret?' was splendid!

I just finished reading Eclipse by Stephanie Meyer. I'm so in love with the Twilight series!

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!
i like her, too. the only one i haven't read in this series is The Constant Princess. all the others were really good!

I started The Emperor's Children and could not finish it. The setup took over 120 pages. *grumble* By that time, I'd totally lost interest -- the premise was not interesting enough to sustain my interest.

I picked up The Teahouse Fire by Ellis Avery and was immediately sucked in.

I just finished reading A CHANGE OF HEART, the latest release from Jodi Picoult. It was OK - a lot of similarities to THE GREEN MILE! Prior to that, I read Valerie Bertinelli's current Best Seller, LOSING IT. I enjoyed it but thought it didn't go deep enough. So now I've just started FIREFLY LANE, by Kristen Hannah, one of my favorite authors. It sounds like it might be a lot like BEACHES - the story about two life-long friends from their first meeting as teenagers and thirty years forward.

I started this one, but put it on hold when Valerie Bertinelli's memoir came out, followed by Jodi Picoult's new book. Instead of going back to it, I started another new book (which is long -- almost 500 pgs) so I don't imagine I"ll be getting back to it anytime soon!
