Wondering about the books folks are reading now. I read "Breakfast at Sally's" recently and really enjoyed it. also, "Dear John" was a good read. I just got a Nook and would like to hear about the books you are/or have been reading and possibly download them to my Nook.
Thanks.
Sandy

Just finished Orchard Valley Grooms by Debbie Macomber. Orchard Valley Brides will be out the end of July.

I am reading Major Pettigrews Last Stand..cute so far...

The Story Sisters by Alice Hoffman was great!!!

Sandy- what do you mean by "nook" ???
Is it like Kindle???
Let me know, tks!

The Nook is Barnes and Nobles ereader. It has thousands of books for free; and I can also download best sellers for a minimal fee. Maybe you can do that with Kindle too. With the Nook I can loan or borrow books from other Kindle owners. That's what I've learned so far.

I've read "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" and it's a keeper....I highly recommend it for a fun, fast read.

I absolutely love Maeve Binchy. She's an author from Ireland and the way she describes things in her works enables me to "SEE" them in my head.

Very cool! I don't have Kindle but my son does. I love to download audio-books on my Ipod. Our library also has free downloads. It's awesome!!
Enjoy your Nook!!!!!!! :D
Thanks for the response, too!

I just finished "The Horsemaster's Daughter" by Susan Wiggs--excellent!

I'm reading Sally Goldenbaum's Moon Spinners, cute little mystery, the first book in her series is Death by Cashmere, second Patterns in the Sand. She also has her Queen Bees Quilt mystery series. I also just bought Dorothea Benton Frank's new book Lowcountry Summer, her books are great, and Game Over by Fern Michaels, Fortunate Harbor by Emilie Richards.

I read "The Help" and "Sarah's Key" last summer. Wonderful reads, right now I'm into Philippa Gregory and her Plantagenet series. Just finished "The White Queen".

I am reading "Caught". It has so many twists in it. So far so good.

Just finished "The Aloha Quilt" by Jennifer Chiavernie. So far I have all Elm Creek Quilt books and am reading them for a second time. Easy to read and enjoyable.

I loved The Help- really good!

I recently read "The Book Thief." I could hardly put the book down. The book took place during WWII and was told from the perspective of death, himself. He follows the life of a little German girl who watches her brother die, her mom desert her, and her foster parents take in a jew and hide him in their basement. It is a phenomenal perspective of that period of time.

That was a great book, I also have all of her books.

Anything by Pat Conroy, he is wonderful! I sure am glad I am not related to him though, he writes about his family (thinnly veiled), egads. Prince of Tides, Beach Music, The Great Santini, ect, ect.

I read The Bronze Horseman earlier this year, a great read it was set in Leningrad during the Nazi invasion. Not a feel good book, to be sure, but very interesting.

I recently finished The Aloha Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini and Tempted (the 6th House of Night novel) by Cast. Currently I am reading Wedding Ring by Emilie Richards and When I Stop Talking, You'll Know I'm Dead by Jerry Weintraub.

Finished it about a week ago. Loved it.

I love the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. I just finished her most recent one "An Echo in the Bone".

I'm reading One Day, it is good, but kind of drags. Will be starting the Aloha Quilt after that.

I just finished " the lost quilter" by jennifer Chiavernie. I loved it. Just found out it is book #4 and a part 2 to the runaway quilt. You can bet I'm going to find the runaway quilt now. I love period stories.

Karla I love everyone of her books

I just started reading Catherine Coulter Whiplash Its an FBI thriller. They have all be very good. Ones you start you don't want to stop. until the end.

Just finished "The Help". Returned it to my friend, so can't tell you the author. Highly recommended. I couldn't put it down.

I'm reading Legend of The Celtic Stone by Michael Phillips. Next is the sequel An Ancient Strife. I love historical fiction. I'm also reading Eat this and Live! Great 'eat right' book.

Just started Game Over by Fern Michaels, her Sisterhood series and have Knockout by Catherine Coulter on deck. Will get Whiplash when it is paperback. Yes, these books are addicting.

Just finished A Thread So Thin by Marie Bostwick--a quilting related story. The 3rd in a series by her.

I loved "The Help".

At the moment, I am finishing up Nora Roberts The Stanislaski Brothers.. good book... then I am going to read The New Year's Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini.

I've started the Chronicles of Brothers by Wendy Alec. I've read The Fall of Lucifer and Messiah The First Judgement so far. Waiting for the next one to come out.

Water for Elephants, best book I have read in a long time. Thanks to everyone who recommended this book.

I just finished Fifteen and Sixteen in Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series. Both were very good, much better than the one or two before them. I'd been afraid she was going stale, but both of these were a ton of fun. Seventeen is out in hardcover, but I'll wait for the paperback.

Just finished Warlord by Ted Bell. It is about terrorists and will scare you to death. Being fiction the good guys win, but the part about our prisons being used by terrorists to recruit and train American citizens to become terrorists is too real for comfort. It's a real wake up call. Everyone should read it.

Recently read Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese. Best book I've read in a long time. Everyone I've gotten to read it agrees with me.
