What book are you reading or recently read?

[dealsniffer]

hi-just thought we could start a thread on books we are reading. It might be neat to hear what people are reading and what they think of the books. I love books and get very into them but I will put a book down if I just can't get into it. I have such a long list of books to read that I don't see the sense suffering through a bad book when there are so many others I could be enjoying. But sometimes I will stick with the book till the end. I will not put a book down indefinitely but I figure I will go through my list and read the good ones first and come back to the others later.

I am currently FINALLY reading Gulliver's Travels. lol yeah it has always been one I have wanted to read and finally reading it. My list of books to read is like a mile long though and this one sort of got lost in the list. But I am getting to it now and it is interesting. I just finished the Hunger Games and I cried so much through the last book of the trilogy. so sad. But it had a good ending. I hate when good characters are killed off. I loved it though.

So what books are you reading currently or have you recently finished? do you reccomend them?

I'm reading Treasure Hunt by John Lescroart i'm almost finished this one wasn't as good as someof his other books

oh neat. I have never read books by John Lescroart before. What type of books does he write? I might have to add him to my list.

The Art of Racing in the Rain - Garth Stein

[princessjen]

Blood Red Road by Moria Young. I'm almost done, but I found it a little hard to read because its written from the main characters point of view and shes very uneducated, so there's nothing but bad grammer and no "" when someone is speaking.
