Re: What are you reading this weekend? Calling all bookish bumpies!
--My room: A Storm of Swords- George R.R. Martin
--Car/dr appts: book 7 of Stephen King's Dark Tower series
--Living room (read one to kids at night) A collection of Grimm's fairytales
2. Re-read the Anita Blake books by Laurel K. Hamilton
3. I dog ear. Drives FI crazy.
2.) The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian - best book I read all summer
3.) dog ear or fall asleep and don't do anything because I am out cold.
Right now I am reading Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. I like it, but it is a military history book.
2. Favorite recently read book?
I haven't had a lot of good reads lately, I am in a rut of selecting crappy books.
3. GTKY: Do you dog ear or is that a sin in your bookish heart?
I never, ever dog ear a book. I use a bookmark. I don't like the binding to have creases in it. I also never read on a electronic device. Something about the smell and turning the pages that I love.
2. I just read the latest Outlander book by Diana Gabaldon. It is a great series although I do like the first 2 the best (historical fiction). They recently started a tv series in Starz.
3. I have no problem dog earring. Not really sure what the issue is with that.
2. The Night Circus and Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons
3. No, I'm ridiculous with my books. I also can't get rid of them. So I have bookshelves everywhere.
2. Favorite recently read book? I don't really have a recent favorite. But I read a book called Dangerous Girls back in May that I loved.
3. GTKY: Do you dog ear or is that a sin in your bookish heart? I dog ear because meh but I do most of my reading on my Kindle these days.
Recently read: unbroken. I HIGHLY recommend it
Don't really care about dog-earring however I never do it. I always find some kind of scrap paper or use the book jacket
2. Favorite recently read book? Gone Girl! I'm one of the people who really enjoyed it. It's messed up, definitely, but I couldn't put it down.
3. GTKY: Do you dog ear or is that a sin in your bookish heart? Never!! I always use a bookmark. DH dog ears when he reads; drives me nuts!
2. Aside from the Outlander series and novellas, I recently read the Divergent series. I wasn't a huge fan, but finished it.
3. I never dogear! But I haven't read a real book lately. I love my kindle and pretty much read it exclusively. Best parts are the quick book delivery and being able to read in the dark in bed when DH is sleeping.
Next up --Gone girl. Or maybe another by Wodehouse if I need something light.
I totally dog ear.
Omg I recently read The Night Circus and it was amazing. I loved it! I also hoard books.
2. The last books I read were the Divergent trilogy. I was wanting to get them in actual print, but finally gave up and ordered the whole series on my kindle, read through all 3 in less than a week. Good books tho!
3. I try really hard to not dog ear my pages. I have a million bookmarks because everyone gives them to me, but I always end up using a receipt or piece of scrap paper, or today- a sticker that came in my box of Botan rice candy.
I don't dogear pages ever. I might end up using multiple bookmarks in one book, though.
Currently reading birthing without fear and happiest baby on the block.
Somewhat recently read non baby books I enjoyed (its been baby on the brain for awhile): Madaddam by Margaret Attwood, part of her Oryx and Crake series and Mass Incarceration by Michelle Alexander.
Lifetime reccomendation- this is more in the existential realm- j. Krishnamurti's On God. Just.....beautiful.
To dog ear is to enjoy
