Drop Everything And Read discussion

I'm reading Under the Dome, it's really good so far!

Till Death Do Us Part

I am reading Diamonds and Cole. I have to hurry up and finish this, I have more books waiting to be read.

Die for me by Amy Plum

Just finishing up the 3rd book in the fun Colin Cotterill Dr. Siri series, Disco For The Departed.

Highly recommend if you like an entertaining mish-mash of murder intrigue, humor, eastern culture and folklore!

I am reading Coming Clean by Kimberly Rae Miller. So far it is great.

Fangirl

Reading as a nod to the season we are headed into. Also because I love John Jakes as a historical fiction author and one from my TBR pile which keeps growing lol

I'm waiting for a book to be delivered. It was expected Oct. 3rd, but there was some delay and according to the tracking info it's still a few states away. It is "Wicked", by Gregory Maguire.
Another one I am waiting on is "Fate of the Tearling", the final book of the trilogy by Erika Johansen, That one is pre-ordered and I won't have it until Dec. 5th.

I have just finished Magonia <3 What a great book !

I'm currently reading New Moon and Insurgent

Just started Room, the way it's written sends chills down my spine...

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest

I started percy Jackson, it's great and all but the age thing is pretty weird tbh, I mean he's twelve

I'm reading Carry On and it's going good so far

Reading Clockwork Princess - Cassandra Clare

I love this series !!!!!!!!

Currently Reading
Anne of Ingleside, A Tale of Two Cities, and Democracy in America.

I'm expecting "Wicked" in the mail today, and I will start reading it probably immediately. I'll let ya'll know how I like it.

I started reading All Quiet on the Western Front and so far I'm not sure how much I'm liking it... It's good, don't get me wrong. Actually, I think it's not so much the book as it is me, I'm just not very in the mood for historical fiction at the moment. I finished Room the other day and wanted something different, although, I'm afraid World War I is just as depressing if not more.
Considering switching up to a different book, maybe some generic thriller that doesn't require too much energy on my behalf.

I am currently reading "Ion", written by Ioan Slavici , a great Romanian writer .

The High Mountains of Portugal by Yann Martel (Just started this the other day and it's still too early to form an opinion on it yet.)

By Light We Knew Our Names..."

Wow, how do you manage to read so many books at a time? Maybe I'll try it.

Hamlet :)

I've finished The Help and it was AMAZING! Now, I'm planning to read Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

I'm reading DreamLand by Sarah Dessen

I'm going to join in the BOTM for November, so for now going to steam through some ARCs, new stuff I've been waiting to read, and old favorites in the meantime. I have vacation which = lots of time to read!

I actually keep signing E.A. Poe for later, not sure what really to expect and which boo..."

I like the Pit and the Pendulum too, and The Cask of Amontillado, The Tell-Tale Heart...lots of them, most of them are quite short stories, so I wouldn't have too much trepidation giving one a try. The language can be a little daunting if you aren't used to that era, but knowing that going in, it should be easy.

I'm reading One Man Guy.

You click "add book/author" , type the name of the book, and instead of "link" , click "cover" and the cover of the book shows

Elsewhere, so far so good!

Just finished and wrote my first ever review!

I'm reading "Wicked" The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West..It got some bad reviews but I must say, I'm enjoying it so far.

I'm reading Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier. I've seen the movie but am reading the book for a book club that has chosen a gothic theme for this month.

I am currently reading the second book in the 5th Wave series: The Infinite Sea. I love it!

Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce

Maybe you accidentally clicked reply to Tammie's post as well.

Leaving Time by Jodi Picoult

WHERE SERPENTS SLEEPS by C.S. Harris

Just started The Man in the High Castle
Should be good but it's hard to get into it, I find... Might just be the small font size, however. My eyesight is terrible and small print is a nightmare.

I just finished . It was an interesting tale about reapers. I have currently started reading as well. Dresden is fun. :)

I'm reading Darkness, Kindled, the 4th part of the Fire Spirits Series by Samantha Young. Again. It's sooo cool!

I am reaching After Alice by Gregory Maguire. I am finding this a tough read! It is less than 300 pages, but I have read entire series in the time it's taken me to get through 63 pages of this book because I keep putting it down. Some books are like that, and eventually get you hooked. I hope it's worth it in the end... can anyone enlighten me?

I have not read this, but what things are you finding tough about it?
I am currently reading his book "Wicked."

I liked Wicked; very clever and a bit twisted. It's definitely written in the same style - but so far the plot isn't as gripping and not nearly as twisted. Wicked gives the wicked witch a great backstory, but so far this is just Alice in Wonderland without the nonsense and with less likeable characters. Based on the blurb I was expecting something else, but maybe I just need to keep reading. Hope you enjoy Wicked as much as I did!
