I just finished Another Thing To Fall by Laura Lippman. Good Tess Monaghan mystery with lots of movie filming insider stuff.

I'm going to read The Ten Year Nap by Meg Wolitzer now.

The Ten Year Nap didn't grab me. It was a bit overly wordy.

I am now reading Murder In Miniature by Margaret Grace.

Murder in Miniature was okay. Cute little cozy.

I received Certain Girls by Jennifer Weiner in the mail today so I'm starting that. I love her books and can't wait to read it. It's the sequel to her book Good In Bed.

I just finished The Pillars of the Eart and ordered World Without End (a long waiting list). I can't believe I managed to finish the book on time (3 weeks) before returning it to the library. I didn't really learn very much from the book as I already read all there is about medieval history but something about cathedral building was interesting, although at times I find it a bit tedious. It was nice to see that in the end justice prevailed. The funny thing is that, after all the revelations at the end of the book, Philip never learns that it was Jack who burned down his old church (the lad only confessed it to Tom and then Tom died and with him this secret). Not that it was relevant but since eveything came to the fore I thought for sure Jack would tell Philip.
I'm curious to see how the story continues in the sequel and how the Black Death will be told by Follett. Another 1000 pages but I think I can handle it.

I LOVED Pillars of the Earth and I'm now reading World Without End. I love reading about that time period in history. I'm only 200 pages into the 1000 but its good so far.

Reading Burning Bright by Tracey Chevalier, not liking it so far. Tried to read Savannah by John Jakes, couldn't get into it. Think I'll go to the library today :-)

I'm reading Damaged by Cathy Glass. It's about a foster child that she had who really has been damaged by the life she had before she came into her house. It's heartbreaking.

Just a reminder for for "Prey" novel fans, the latest installment, "Phantom Prey" is out the first week of May.

On the same date, a time travel/alternate history novel by "1632" author Eric Flint called "Time Spike" is being released. I'll be getting both of them.

Just picked up Outlander from the library and read almost 100 pages last night. So far, I like it.

I just finished listening to The Pillars of the Earth from Audible, and I liked it. I am taking a break, however, before I start World Without End. Even with a half hour commute to and from work, it took a month to listen to just one! I needed something fluffy in between.

I'm going to start Hold Tight by Harlan Coben. It's the first time I'm trying one of his books.

Currently reading "Eat, Pray, Love". The book kind of feels like a vacation. Is that weird statement? It's inspiring and yet, doesn't feel like effort to read.

Next up, "The Ruins". I've seen it gets some really great reviews (even if the movie looks terrible.)

A Bertrice Small bodice ripper. (If you've read one, you've read 'em all... but they are great, steamy, escapes from the mundane.)

Outlander, so far is.........wow. Just plain wow. Are the rest of the books in the series as good? I think I might be in love with Jamie Fraser. LOL.
