Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) I finished reading The Birthing House by Christopher Ransom by Christopher Ransom this morning. This book was one of the worst horror novels I've read in my entire life. It wasn't even the slightest bit scary. The author's writing style is terrible and I felt like most of the book was written by a horny 12-year-old. The whole plot was confusing and I disliked all the characters. I ended up not really caring what happened to any of them. This book is definitely one to avoid.

Now I'm about to begin The Green Mile by Stephen King by Stephen King.


message 1857: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) I just finished The Green Mile by Stephen King by Stephen King earlier today and I absolutely loved it. I'm a huge fan of Stephen King and The Green Mile has got to be one of the best novels he has ever written. In fact, it's one of the best novels I have ever read in my entire life. Once I started it, I couldn't put it down! It is very beautifully written and extremely moving at times. The plot is original, gripping and heart-breaking. I'd give this book more than five stars if I could! My full review is here.

Now I'm about to start The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson by Shirley Jackson.

message 1862: by Gwen (new)

Gwen I just finished reading The Giver, Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son. Now I'm reading The Strain by Guillermo del Toro because I love del Toro. Sadly the book was pretty dull for the first 33% but it started to pick up and I'm hoping it will continue with that trend - if it doesn't, I might not bother with finishing the trilogy!

I am absolutely loving reading on my Paperwhite.

sarg (sargkc) | 4 comments The Clan of the Cave Bear (Earth's Children, #1) by Jean M. Auel Jean M. Auel
It's a slow read Don't know if I can finish it. It gets into too much detail about pre Neanderthall life and slow action.


message 1865: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) Earlier, I finished reading The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson by Shirley Jackson. I was disappointed by this book to be honest. I felt the novel did not live up to the reputation it has gotten. I just felt like it was missing something. Plus I disliked all the characters and the strange dialogue between them really annoyed me. This is one novel where the movie, or in this case movies, are better than the book. My full review is here.

Next I'm going to read The Witching Hour (Lives of the Mayfair Witches, #1) by Anne Rice by Anne Rice.

message 1872: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) Earlier today, I finished reading The Witching Hour (Lives of the Mayfair Witches, #1) by Anne Rice by Anne Rice. The Witching Hour is an extremely long novel, 1207 pages, but don't let that put you off reading as once you open the first page you soon find yourself completely absorbed in the chilling tale of the Mayfair Witches. This novel has a spellbinding, engrossing, well-written tale with complex and mysterious characters. There are plenty of compelling twists and turns in the plot to keep you interested and the suspense is drawn out to perfection. The novel is completely unpredictable, I found the ending to be quite a shock! My full review can be found here.

Now, I'm about to start The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving by Washington Irving and Frankenstein (Penguin Classics) by Mary Shelley by Mary Shelley.

Jackie | 8 comments I finished The Long Walk by Stephen King yesterday and loved it. I was about 50 pages from the end when my Paperwhite arrived and had to try it out, of course, and finished it. Now I'm reading The Passage by Justin Cronin. I'm liking it so far. I would really just love to not do anything but read on my wonderful new Kindle this weekend. Obligations, why?

message 1886: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) Earlier I finished reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelley by Mary Shelley. This novel turned out to be nothing like what I was expecting. I was expecting a generic horror story about a monster but what I got was so much more complex, it's actually quite a philosophical story really. I was extremely surprised and impressed by the actual story itself. I really enjoyed this book and I'm happy I finally got around to reading this classic. My full review is here.

I'm planning to read Eleven on Top (Stephanie Plum, #11) by Janet Evanovich by Janet Evanovich next.

Absolutely love it. I can't believe it's taken me this long to finally read it.

The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking, #1) by Patrick Ness"


Susanne, what do you think of the book? It's been on TBR list for a while but I haven't gotten around to it quite yet.


message 1896: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) I finished reading Eleven on Top (Stephanie Plum, #11) by Janet Evanovich by Janet Evanovich this morning. Stephanie's adventures still make me laugh after 11 novels. There are so many hilarious and witty scenes in this book. But I have to admit I was a bit annoyed by Stephanie in this book. I just wish she'd finally choose between Joe Morelli and Ranger! http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Now I'm reading The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton by Kate Morton.


message 1897: by Kathy (new)

Kathy (katmax100) | 3 comments I just finished reading what's been published so far of the demon accords series (4 books) the first book is God Touched

I was a bit shocked by how much I enjoyed these books and it reminds me how I keep finding self published authors who have books just as enjoyable as any formally published novels.

Currently reading Hounded - so far it's good but not finished yet.

SweetCheeses And Coffee Dreams | 4 comments The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman

I've just started it, but what I've read so far, I've enjoyed. It's an interest concept. I decided to read it because a friend of mine ABSOLUTELY LOVES the entire series.

Now if I just didn't have a kagillion library books and a book club book, I'd be able to start on it again.

The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking, #1) by Patrick Ness
