I just finished reading the Boy in Stripped Pajamas. It is so sad and has a twist at the end. I also read the Memory Keepers Daughter which was a great book too! I would recommend both! -
Just about done with "Dare to Survive: Death, Heartbreak and Triumph in the Wild." Sounds like a real uplifting book, huh. And, actually, it's much heavier on the first two than the "triumph." Honestly, not a book I'd recommend. I like reading wilderness survival and rescue books, since I'm active with Search & Rescue, and sometimes the stories don't have happy endings, but this particular book really hasn't stacked up to most others I've read that genre. -
I'm reading 'Iyengar, The Great Master' a compilation of essays by many well know yoga teachers celebrating the life & influence of the renowned yoga teacher B.K.S Iyengar, edited by Kofia Busia. I am really enjoying this as I am a passionate yoga practioner...very inspiring stuff! -
The First Years of Forever. -
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Highly entertaining in a weird fanfic kind of way. -
I am reading - The Four Spirit Laws of Prosperity.... -
I'm getting ready to start reading From Dead to Worse. Book number 8 in the Sookie Stackhouse/Trueblood series.
And I'm also continuing my learning of handwriting analysis, palm reading, body language and hypnosis-
How do the books compare to the series? I have the series in my Netflix Queue
-
If you like the series you will love the books. The series follows the book pretty well. But the books have less emphasis on the other characters. In fact, Lafayette and Jason, are rarely in the books.
-
How complex is the writing? Is it "Harry Potter" eloquent or is it "Twilight" cheesy?
-
It's 1000000000000x better than twilight. It's written more of a mystery novel with a hint of supernatural flair, with a touch a housewife porn.
-
Sounds like it's right up my alley. I will be hitting my local library for the books as I am cash poor right now.
-
Let me know how you like it. My little brother and sister (14) actually started reading them too, and they really enjoy them.
-
I am very fond of young adult fiction as I think it has gotten a lot more sophisticated and original in the past dozen or so years. My favorite is still Phillip Pullman "His Dark Materials" trilogy followed by Harry Potter. I wish there were books like that when I was a kid.
-
Yeah same here.
But I don't think these are classified as young adult, because they get pretty detailed with the sex. -
*raises eyebrow*
Vampire porn? Oh my. -
Oh yes. Vampires are all about having sex

In the car - I have about 3 books, in case we go someplace I can read, or if I am waiting for someone. -
