  Finished Sherlock Holmes, so #2/10 complete. I've fallen a bit behind because we've been super busy lately. Now I'm just deciding which book to read next.

  I finished up book number 2 and am working on book 3:  "The Cabinent of Curiosities" by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child.

  I really enjoyed the end of Reliquary (by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child), it was very suspensful and I was completely  surprised when the evil mastermind was revealed (although I was angry at myself for not guessing it sooner.)  I was a well executed mystery with pleanty of excitement.

  I'm still reading Committed but I am thinking of giving up. It is PAINFULLY slow and boring. It should have been titled, "A History of Love and Marriage." I'm 4 or 5 chapters in and that's all it's been so far. While interesting in some aspects, it's not very autobiographical like her first book was.

  So I'm also reading Love in the Time of Cholera. I really like it and am finding myself picking it up more often than Committed.

  I'm still on p. 10 of a Jodi Picoult book I picked up.  I don't even remember the title. I just can't seem to find time to read.  WAH.

  I took a break from Magic Hour and read If You Were Here by Jen Lancaster. So, I'm back to Magic Hour, but I've upped my tally to 5!

  I finished The Secret and Charlie Bone and the Red Knight (a juvenile lit series I started when I was a MS librarian). That puts me at 4 of 7. . I'm starting Girls in Trucks.

  I've finished all 4 of the Twilight series. I loved the first 3 and couldn't put them down, but I was totally let down with the 4th Oh well! I'm still really glad I read them and know what happens!!

  There are several more books I want to read, so I'll pledge 3 more. I'm not reading anything right now, but I'll keep you posted!

  I am taking a break from my other two books, they just aren't piquing my interest lately. I read The 5th Horseman by James Patterson and now I'm reading The 6th Target.

  Finished Clash of Kings and have moved onto the third in the series, A Storm of Sword by the same author. Now 3 for 10. We're camping this week so I'm hoping with so many people around to watch O that I'll be able to get a little more reading in.

  I've fallen off the reading wagon. I hope to get back on when our house closes & we move (end of July). I guess I finished 3. Booo. I suck!

  stephy1221 - 4 out of 5 (An Object of Beauty by Steve Martin)

  It was okay. People who like art would appreciate it more I think. Now I have to figure out what is next. I have nothing lined up.

  I'm now reading "A Morning's Refrain" by Tracie Peterson.  I'm kind of going through her books right now.  This is the 2nd book about a family in Alaska.  Pretty good so far.

  No change for me, except that I'm about halfway through Brick Road.  It's okay, but not fabulous.  DH stole Newton and the Counterfeiter from my parents house so I want to read that when he finishes - unfortunately his reading is even slower than mine these days.

  13 of 25  I finally finished The Things We do For Love-Kristin Hannah, and am on to The Woods-Harlan Coben.   With starting a new job two weeks ago it's been difficult to find time to read.  Especially since DS has his first tooth coming in.  He really doesn't know what to make of it.
