It's Monday! What are you reading? (1/4/2010)

Books I completed this past week are:
Currently Reading:

Upcoming Reads:

Some possibilities (from the library) include...
  • Lament by Maggie Stiefvater
  • Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
  • Tempted by P.C. Cast + Kristin Cast
  • Deal Breaker by Harlan Coben
  • Eragon by Christopher Paolini
  • Everybody Kills Somebody Sometime by Robert J. Randisi

    Check out THEY BITE --my co-author and I had a wonderful time writing that book, and we interviewed all sorts of folks --John Carpenter, Peter Straub, Rachel Caine, etc, It's fun and browseable.

    Happy reading!

    Co-author, THEY BITE!

    I have those days where I have no idea what I want to read next. It all depends on my mood!

    Hope you have a great reading week! :D

    E.H> - Thanks and no, no plan, other than to read like crazy. This is my last week of break before classes start again, and no holidays to distract me...

    Laughing Stars aka The Stark Raving Bibliophile - I've seen so many good things about Shiver. I'm almost nervous to start it. If that makes sense?

    Jonathan - It certainly looked interesting. =) I've already read the Intro and I'll definitely at least flip through it.

    Ruth - It's even more difficult when you know you have SO many great choices. I've seen and read great things about several of my possible choices. ::sigh:: Decisions...

    J. Kaye - But then I'll have to wait to get the 2nd book, and I know I'm not going to like waiting. =P

    Jo, it didn't have that cliffhanger ending. I want to read her other series before I read this second book, so the waiting isn't so bad for me.
