I'm reading The Inner Circle by Brad Meltzer.  It has a lot of D.C. intrigue and secrecy, a la Dan Brown.  It's a good read so far, I'm anxious to get to the big ending but not to finish the book.

recommending "30 Lessons in Living" which is a collection of over 1000 interviews with some elderly folks on how to live!

thanks so much for this, julie! as usual i'm working on several books at the same time and often not having time to finish them. the rest of you will have to comment on the fiction, because i haven't had time for much fiction lately. although i do want to read "the help" now that i've loved the movie. i'm working on a book about madness and leadership, and some really good books about different styles of intelligences. howard gardner being among them. ...more to come!

Out of work and back in school at way too old an age (long story) so I didn't get anywhere near my normal amount of reading done this fall.  So when winter break started, I dove into my book shelves.  With the result that school starts back Monday and I am now reading four different books.  In four different formats.  The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, best by far of the Millennium trilogy.  (Audio - in the car.)  By The Time You Read This, Giles Blunt, Canadian mystery - mass market paperback.  The Hanging Shed, Gordon Ferris, post WWII mystery set in Glasgow - Kindle.  The Drop, Michael Connolly, the latest Harry Bosch mystery - Nook on my phone.

Nancy!  I get that same anxious panic when I start to get low on books.  Last night I started 11/22/63 by Stephen King.  It is his take on time travel about a man who attempts to prevent the assassination of Kennedy.  I am always interested in how authors tackle the "rules" that apply to travelling to the past.

if I posted every book I read you would run out of space here...LOL will try to get the best on here more regularly... when I have a pile of unread books I feel very rich...and when the pile gets down to one I get almost a panic feeling...LOL

thanks so much for your posting, nancy. i really like the idea of keeping this group alive, because i love to hear what books other folks are reading, and i think everyone else does to. it inspires me to have another one on the list! :-)
