I just received my copy of Alice Munro's "Dear Life." I'll be starting that tonight. I've never been disappointed by Munro's fiction, though her last collection ("Too Much Happiness") didn't engage me the way her earlier work has.

Tho I read it about a year ago, Barbara Kingsolver's The Lacuna is great. So is Cutting for Stone.

I just finished Proof of Heaven by Eben Alexander, MD, where he relates his near death experience. I've always been fascinated by spirituality and metaphysics and lean strongly toward believing in life after death. This book nudged me even farther in the direction of that belief.

i, too, am finding alternate methods for reading. i rarely sit with a paper book in the old fashioned way. i love audio, because i ican do something with my hands and it's also easier on my eyes. my eyes are strained from so much computer :-)

I listen to a lot of books because I can fit in a audio book while I am busy with my task where getting the time to sit with a book is a bit more difficult. Just like Julie I am using all 3 venues for book consumption! Wicked is audio and Kindle, Cloud Atlas is both audio and paper (I switch between both) and Entering the Castle is paper.

On audio, I'm listening to Say You're Sorry by Michael Robotham.  On Kindle I'm reading Close Your Eyes Tight by John Verdon.  And in paper I'm reading Say Nice Things About Detroit by Scott Lasser.

Well, I am currently reading Cloud Atlas, Wicked, and Entering the Castle. I must say Cloud Atlas took some warming up to but now I am in love with it. Wicked is Wickedly wonderful! Entering the Castle is like having a private retreat between you and your soul in your own home ... love it! I wish I had nothing to do but read what I choose plus read all that others post here.
