Be patient with book 1, it was the weakest in that series. I love that series, so I just wanted to give you heads yp

Vicky (librovert) I just finished my re-read of Outlander (Outlander, #1) by Diana Gabaldon and am working my way through Dragonfly in Amber (Outlander, #2) by Diana Gabaldon . I'm hoping to get through the series by the end of February, but we'll see.

I'll probably end up finishing them just in time to re-read them again before the 8th book comes out! haha

message 11: by Adele (new)

Adele Symonds (adelesymonds) I am reading Mulligans Reach by Jennie Orbell, a friend of mine. So far it is excellent with well drawn characters, intrigue in the plot, good description and plenty of humour worked into the dialogue.

message 23: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Kobus (michellereads7) I've been inbetween several books the past week; not because I dislike any of them, just the opposite. I'm just too excited and have to know what happens in all of them so that it takes me months to finish a single book and usually start finishing several all at the same time! lol :)

But anyway, a few of those books are Inkheart, American Gods, and Brisingr :)


message 24: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Kobus (michellereads7) @ Theo: I read the Historian and loved it! Hope you like it as much as I did :)

Finished Fourth Grave Beneath My Feet (Charley Davidson, #4) by Darynda Jones and now on to Horns by Joe Hill already disturbing and only on chapter 5...LOVE it!


message 35: by Book Concierge (new)

Book Concierge (tessabookconcierge) | 2448 comments Hatchet by Gary Paulsen � Gary Paulsen
Audio book performed by Peter Coyote
4.5****

This is a great adventure story that teaches some wonderful lessons about self-sufficiency. The writing style is reminiscent of Hemingway � short declarative sentences that propel the story forward. I love the final sentence before the Epilogue, and almost wish that Paulsen had simply ended the story there.

message 36: by Vicky (new)

Vicky (librovert) I finished Voyager (Outlander, #3) by Diana Gabaldon in about 4 days, and now I'm working on Drums of Autumn (Outlander, #4) by Diana Gabaldon ... it's official, I'm addicted.


message 37: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments Wow Vicky you are addicted to Outlander,lol
Glad you are enjoying it!! Hoping I enjoy it when I start later this year.

Currently reading in no particular order By a Thread (Elemental Assassin, #6) by Jennifer Estep - not very far in but Gin's sister is getting on my nerves!?! Wait For Me by Elisabeth Naughton which has just started to get really interesting (reading this one on my phone) A Dance With Dragons (A Song of Ice and Fire, #5) by George R.R. Martin - trying to get back into this world after a short hiatus and last but not least Desires Unleashed (Knights of the Darkness Chronicles, #1) by D.N. Simmons ~ this one is set in Chicago and haven't decided what my thoughts on this book are yet - I kind of feel like the author has a little ADD it skips around a lot....


message 38: by Adele (new)

Adele Symonds (adelesymonds) Finished Mulligan's Reach by Jennie Orbell by Jennie Orbell, excellent but only available on kindle at present. Next books are Twelve Months by Steven Manchester Homeland (Forgotten Realms The Dark Elf Trilogy, #1; Legend of Drizzt, #1) by R.A. Salvatore and Mayor of the Dog Park by Anne Gilbert

~Jennifer~ (book_addiction) | 929 comments I just finished Consequences. I feel like I need a support group now. Lol. Good grief. The rage I feel. I need that man dismembered. 0_o


message 42: by Jenne (new)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) | 7439 comments I'm dying to read that one Jennifer! I'm going to try to read it in March.


message 43: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments I'm dying to read it too!! I have it on my nook but don't think I will get to it February either. I keep hearing everyone talk abut it,lol

message 45: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments I finished Tangle of Need (Psy-Changeling, #11) by Nalini Singh . 4� for me. I love this author and the worlds she writes about.
Just started for a purple challenge The Cereal Murders (A Goldy Bear Culinary Mystery, #3) by Diane Mott Davidson and still trying to finish Jekyll, an Urban Fantasy (Hyde, #2) by Lauren Stewart and A Dance With Dragons (A Song of Ice and Fire, #5) by George R.R. Martin


message 46: by Sue (new)

Sue Morris | 1095 comments I started listening to The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger and I'm loving it...I saw the movie too....Melissa how many pages is Jekyll, an Urban Fantasy (Hyde, #2) by Lauren Stewart , my nook says 1419...


message 47: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments Mine probably said the same thing but......nook pages and regular paperback book pages are not the same thing. I know that in some groups they have a thread were you can get prior "authorization" that your ebook meets the requirement for whatever the rules are that you are following. Hope that makes sense. I can ask in another thread for you if you would like.


message 48: by ~Jennifer~ (new)

~Jennifer~ (book_addiction) | 929 comments With the weird Ebook pages just see how many pages it skips each time you change a page and then divide by that number. It's not 100% but it will be closer than the crazy number.


message 49: by ~Melissa~ (new)

~Melissa~ | 5253 comments Hyde has 384 pgs in paperback version. I would say Jekyll is probably right around there give or take 10 pgs so between 370 ~ 395ish
