I typically find myself with a few "Currently Reading" titles as well as a rather large "To Be Read" (TBR) pile waiting in the wings.

At the recommendation of Goodreads I've just recently started The Readers of Broken Wheel Recommend by Katarina Bivald. The description sounded wonderful, but so far I find it slow going...

The recommendation was made to me based on the book Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore which was a fantastic book!! Full of mystery AND book store nerdiness... I'm hoping this current read picks up soon and doesn't disappoint!

I haven't read any Dan Brown yet... but we have lots of die hard fans of his! You'll have to let us know what you thought!

It looks good!

I've just started the book you recommended to me Amy... The Taxidermist's Daughter... I do love Kate Mosse so I'm very excited to get into it!

I just added 2 books to my "Currently Reading" List.... The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss is my big, probably gonna take a bit, thinker book.

The Weekenders by Mary Kay Andrews is my fun, it's finally sunny, read it on the deck book!

I loved both of those books!!! The Handmaid's Tale definitely has a classic feel to it... such a well written novel with a great story line, and definitely a little meatier!!!

Ready Player One I reccommend to all of my teenage reluctant readers! It's such a great crossover of genres!

I've gotten it into my head that I want to read one non-fiction for every fiction book I read this summer...

So right now I'm reading The Girls of Murder City: Fame, Lust, and the Beautiful Killers who Inspired Chicago and After the Armistice Ball
