I just finished the hunger games and loved it. Can't wait to get my hands on Catching Fire. What are you reading, what do you think of it and would you recommend it??

Re: GTKY - What are you reading?
I read the hunger games last year...very good! Right now i'm reading The Winter Rose by Jennifer Donnelly. It's part of a series. So good!!
Grab a box of kleenex...

Twin Girls - 02/11/15 - at 37 weeks (no NICU, home with me at 3 days).
At the moment I'm reading "Adventures in Tandem Nursing" (helpful to see what it could be like if I get KU while still BFing my son) and "Mastering the Nikon D7000."
I don't read much fiction but I'm intrigued by "The Hunger Games", so maybe I'll check that out. I'm also intrigued by "We Need To Talk About Kevin" even though I think I'll be highly upset by the subject matter
I just finished The Promise by Donna Boyd. It is the second book in a series about werewolves, think Anne Rice with wolves. I am looking forward to the next book.
If you are into series, I really enjoyed the Fever Series by Karen Marie Moning. The series takes place in modern day Dublin and centers around faeries and witches.

I recently finished the first Hunger Games book. I'm avoiding the other two so I can have a little bit of productivity in my life for a bit (obviously. since I'm hanging out on an internet chat board
).
I've read The Help and loved it. I also like a lot of the Jodi Piccoult books (Nineteen MInutes is a great one). Something Borrowed and Love the One You're With are fun reads. I'm so intrigued by everyone else's reading lists! I love books.
I've also recently read Winter Garden by Kristen Hannah and really liked it.

I completely agree!! I definitely think the first was by far the best, but stick with the last one. It really ties things together, although it lacks the creativity of the first book.
I'm currently reading A Dog's Purpose which is a story from a dog's perspective. Its not what I expected, but I surprisingly can't put it down!
Good! You'll love Catching Fire, too. Mockingjay moved a little slow, but also good. Are you reading them before the movie comes out?
I'm reading Heart of the Matter by Emily GIffin. I love her novels~
Love Picoult! I haven't read Picture Perfect, but Plain Truth has been my favorite of hers so far. I also enjoyed Vanishing Acts and Keeping Faith.
I absolutely loved The Hunger Games. I have now started reading the Pretty Little Liars series. Lame, I lknow! It was in our library at school and I started reading it and now I have to know what happens. I have never watched the series on television, so it's all still new to me.
I'm reading the Dovekeepers by Alice Hoffman. It's really good - a fictional novel based on a historical event in Israel.
Loved the Hunger games series, and World War Z.
TTC #1 since 8/2011
Dx: Endometriosis(2000) & Uterine Fibroids
Plain Truth is my all time favorite. I also love The Pact.
I am currently listening to House Rules in the car. I am really enjoying it. The one character has aspberger's, which I find interesting. I think JP does a good job with her characters!
I forgot to mention what I am reading above.
I am reading The Summer Garden by Paullina Simons. It is the last book in her trilogy. The first two were The Bronze Horseman (amazing!) and Tatiana and Alexander (so good!). They are historical fiction set during WWII in Russia. I highly recommend them!

I just finished reading this too. I loved it.
I've been into non-fiction lately. I just finished Our Babies, Our Selves: How Biology and Culture Shape the Way We Parent by Meredith Smalls. It was fantastic. I highly recommend it.
Now, I'm reading The Working Poor: Invisible in America by David K. Shipler. It won a Pulitzer Prize. It is amazing and I'm loving every bit of it; it is definitely a must read.
I'm also listening to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on audio book. The narrator is great and I'm beginning to see what all the hype is about. :-)
I just finished the hunger games trilogy last month and loved them!
Next I either want to read the help or are you there vodka, it's me Chelsea. I haven't decided which I'll start first
*DS 6/28/2013*
I'm currently on A Storm of Swords and I definitely recommend the show. DH and I watch it and it is really close to the books. The dvds come out in March so hopefully it will be on Netflix shortly after. I can't wait to rewatch it all!
I just finished The Book Thief and really enjoyed it. Now I'm reading The Hobbit. I'm so excited about the movie coming out. I just wish I didn't have to wait until December!
I loved the Hunter Games books. I read all of them twice!

"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength."
Phew, 'The Best of Me' was VERY sad!
I am reading 'The Girl with the Dragon tattoo' series. Still on the first book, but halfway through and it's finally picking up.
I'm currently reading TCOYF haha. Yes, I would recommend it.
I'm also reading the Vampire Diaries series, and I would recommend that as well (if you're into that sort of thing).
I plan to read The Help and The Hunger Games next.
I'm reading the Strain series by Guillermo del Toro and another author who I'm blanking on. The vampires in this are not the Twilight type and it definitely gave me nightmares.

I read this last year with my 8th graders and it was wonderful--much better than I was expecting. I highly recommend it.
