  embarrassed to admit my reading of YA books but they are all that I feel I can manage to read.... since I get to read in 15 min increments... soo that being said I am reading the Ally Condie series, Matched, Crossed and Reached

  Goodreads

  News this weekend that The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith is actually by JK Rowling writing under a pseudonym has created a significant spike in Goodreads members adding it to read. The initial reviews look good. Does the fact that it's by JK Rowling make it more interesting to you?

  Gone Girl made me hate the author. Seriously made me grouchy.

  The Fault in Our Stars, The Virgin Suicides, The Spectacular Now, Divergent, Enders Game or the Midnight Circus. 

   

  Just a few I've read recently.

  I don't know if you like detective/crime novels but I'm reading A Conspiracy of Faith by Jussi Adler-Olsen and really enjoying it.
