Mary Higgins Clark is a good mystery/suspense author.

I just finished, "I Still Dream About You" by Fannie Flag. Great author, great book.

Right now, I'm reading and cannot put down "The Book of Negroes" which chronicles the life of a woman from the time she was kidnapped in Africa at the age of 8 in 1746 then sold into slavery in South Carolina. It won three different literary awards and I can understand why - it's so well written.

What does that mean?

It sounds like putting a strong magnet on opposites sides of the head to rearrange brain waves.

Primitive!!!

**mbrek** · 10-27-2011, 07:19 PM

Don't hate me, deafie friends. But for several years I've been totally hooked on audio books. I love "reading" while doing other things. I've had such a wonderful influx of literature since I started doing it this way!

Right now I'm listening to Arrowsmith by Sinclair Lewis.

**KristinaB** · 10-27-2011, 07:25 PM

I am reading Bubba and the Dead Woman by C.L. Bevill.

I thought "Get a Grip" was their best album.

Oh! you said, Arrowsmith. Not Aerosmith. Oops.

**sallylou** · 10-27-2011, 09:07 PM

I'm reading The Son of Neptune. I'm about half way though and it's good.

Riordan?

**sallylou** · 10-27-2011, 09:43 PM

Yes, his latest. Greeks and Romans.

I'm a fan, but waiting impatiently for more in the Egyptian series.

**sallylou** · 10-27-2011, 09:52 PM

Botti, I don't like to read series out of order. Part of my obsessive/compulsive tendencies. But he's writing them out of order. The last Egyptian book is really good.

My kid has read each book twice, except for The Son of Neptune, which he graciously allowed me to read.

Nice boy!

**sallylou** · 10-27-2011, 09:55 PM

Speaking of time, did anyone read the Time Traveler? That was hard to read! I haven't seen the movie, though.

superdeaf57 · 10-28-2011, 07:16 AM

i just finish read a good book called the one who waits for me by lori copeland i hope you read her book she is a good writer

"The Book of Negroes"

Oh I loved it too! very touching book.
If you liked it, you'll like "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett, too.

I read The Time Traveler's Wife. It's by Audrey Niffenegger, right?

I liked it, although nearing the end I think it well could have been condensed
by 1/4 and greatly benefit by this.
Audrey after "Wife.." wrote another book, I haven't read it - "Her Fearful Symmetry"
and wonder if it's as good as the first.
Does anyone read it yet? if so, what's your opinion?

Right now I am about to finish
Tim Gunn's
Golden Rules: Life's Little Lessons for Making It Work

It's surprisingly well penned book,
with lots of everyday sensible advice, etiquette lessons,
written with warmth, compassion and experience.
And a tidbits of inside gossip!

I sincerely recommend it!

ps- I saw the movie, too. It's not bad, either, and the actors are so good looking!

Fuzzy
