I'm currently reading Eleven on Top by Janet Evanovich. I'll probably have it finished by this afternoon. I wanted to read something light since I've been reading alot of murder/mayhem lately.

I've heard such great things about it. It' supposed to be an emotional, "get the tissues ready", compelling story. I can't wait to start it! Hope your book club decides to read it!

The Book Thief is one I sorta want to read but don't know if I'll be able to get into it. I may try it at some point.

Poorer Germans were treated badly and had to endure much.
I'm starting The Girl Who Chased the Moon by Sarah Addison Allen. This book was recommended to me by Dena! Thanks Dena! Your selections always ROCK & I'm sure I won't be disappointed.
I'm reading another recommendation by Dena (who never steers me wrong!)....The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski.
The Women of Tenacity by Shanna Hatfield. Thought this would be a fun, quick read for this chilly, dreary afternoon. This was also a freebie for the Kindle awhile back.
Open Season by C.J. Box. I'm about 10% into it, but really enjoying it so far. The main character, Joe Pickett, is great so far! I think I'm really going to enjoy this series.

Ginger next week Brian Bogdanoff is coming to the Avoca Library to give his presentation on his book. Yippee!!! Going to ask my other book club tomorrow if they would like to have him come out too.
Dena, that is fantastic!! Wish I could be there. Let me know how it goes.

I'm starting The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton on my Kindle. This book was picked for me by one of the gals in our group 1001 5 star books. I'm hoping to be able to finish this before the end of the month.

The Distant Hours is the one I have my eye on next.

Today I started The Silver Boat: A Novel by Luanne Rice. I haven't read anything by her in over a year!

I just started to read Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen and it is so good. I really didn't think it would be this good- come on, it's a circus (?!?). The drama and her writing style is fantastic. To think people paid to watch the show in the bleachers, they should have paid to see what was happening behind the scenes (ha). Great book!!

I just loved loved & loved the book! Hope you continue to enjoy it!
