"I read so hard got paper cuts."

Has anyone read this trilogy? If so and you thought it was great please thank me or rep me to tell me why. So much buzz about it.

My Stroke Of Insight, by Jill Bolte Taylor, Ph.D.

A neuroscientist's personal journey through her own stroke.

Fascinating stuff.

I haven't read Fifty Shades of Grey, Fifty Shades Darker or Fifty Shades Freed but there is a tremendous amount of buzz! I just read an article where the author E.L. James says she's sold the movie adaptation already to Focus the folks who did Brokeback Mountain.

The House At Tyneford by Natasha Solomon


(Fans of Downton Abbey should enjoy this book)

Drift by Rachael Maddow- arn't we all! Just made NYT Beset Seller's list! Good for her!

Okay, Angela's Ashes had two strikes against it. One - I'm not particularly into Irish literature as a genre, and two - it was a movie. Fairly nor not, I tend to view books that are made into movies with a certain degree of suspicion - but only if I haven't already read and enjoyed the book. Right - mostly not.

But I was at lunch at work and desperate for something to read, and there was Angela's Ashes in the lost & found bin. Can I just tell you? - I couldn't put it down. Frank McCourt blew my socks off.

America living in illusion
 

"Empire of Illusion" by Chris Hedges

What a wake-up call...Greco

Just finished The Spellman's Strike Again by Lisa Lutz. Better than the last one. The one after this -- it's a series -- i heard was a big let down, so i hesitate to invest.

It's about a neurotic family of Private Investigators, and it's set in San Francisco.

I actually picked this book up today while I was at the mall. My friend told me, with a giggle, that I should read it. I read the reviews before purchasing, so I am not overly excited about reading it. I read that the writing is horrible. I am more curious about the BUZZ all around it.

I'll let you know my thoughts in a couple days! :)

exactly and thank you. I don't mind investing some of my free time to escape into fiction but I'd be pissed if I spent a few hours and money into trash. Some of these high buzz novels can be like that.

The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration
by Isabel Wilkerson


ISBN-10: 0679763880

just finished this one
maybe it was the really bad boston accent going on in my head as i read
but i had a hard time getting through this one

"The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini

"The Crucible" by Arthur Miller

"Cross" by James Patterson

and a ton of work papers

"Republic lost" by Lawrence Lessig

Halfway through "Under The Never Sky" by Veronica Rossi and loving it! (thanks for the recommendation!)

I like reading a lot, but am immensely into this dystopic/sci-fi fiction right now. Any other recommendations? I've read AngelFall by Susan Ee and Divergent, both excitingly different and excellent. Please, recommend away!

this sounded really interesting so i borrowed it yesterday
at first i was incredulous that someone (a brain scientist none the less) suffering a stroke and losing "pathways" to so many things would retain this experience with so much detail but the book won me over
i couldn't put it down
very information packed and still accessible reading
plus fascinating is right

thanks for sharing this find

i now have a completely different outlook on the childhood times i shared with my stroke affected grandma

Just started...
 

"The Lonely Doll"
by Dare Wright

50 shades
 

the writing was horrible!

but

I am actually looking forward to reading the 2nd book lol!
it comes out in a couple days (paperback)

it kept me interested :)

Tao Te Ching

Lao Tzu

wow, i just realized it's been awhile since i've posted in here :) my reading has slowed down a bit the last few weeks...

lately i've still been working through 'sex & disability'...
started reading 'health at every size'
and i'm halfway through 'the time traveler's wife' (borrowed it from my sis yesterday - i read half of it in the dr's office, that visit took like 5 hours yesterday, but it feels a bit like it's dragging to me so i don't know how long it'll take me to finish)
i've also been rereading 'the good and beautiful life' off and on for the third or fourth time.

okay, i made it halfway through the time traveler's wife on friday and i can't finish it. it's boring me to death. i don't understand why people love this book so much. i want to finish because maybe something magical happens in the second half (and my conscience will nag me if i stop) but...i just can't get into it. the writing is really pretty but that's not enough to sustain 500+ pages.
