I've definitely read John Douglas before, not sure weather it was that book though.  Fascinating stuff.

I'm rereading the Harry Potter books.  Because I'm a geek.  ;D

A Rose for the Crown.  Historical fiction....not surprising for me, eh?

Then I'm a geek too! I'll end up rereading them before the final one comes out! I just figure it's been so long between the books and so much builds from book to book that I like a refresher.

I just finished My Best Friend's Girl by Dorothy Koomson. I liked it although it was a slow read.

Thanks for the heads up. I have been wandering whether or not to get that book you just helped me make up my mind to get it.

A Thousand Days in Venice by Marlena de Blasi.  It's so good and I'm excited that there's a second book as well (A Thousand Days in Tuscany).

I'm ashamed to say that I am still struggling with The Scarlet Letter.  I think I'm just gonna watch the movie and be done with it!

I have started a book called "Adventures of a Continental Drifter" by Elliott Hester.  It is a travel  book and so far I like it, but then again, I love travel writing.

I bought Shopaholic and Sister at Target the other day. Was psyched when I saw it since I love Sophie Kinsella. I stayed up until 2:30am reading it.  :-[

I'm trying to decide when to start re-reading my Harry Potter books. I might wait until the summer since I won't be teaching, but kind of want to start soon. I guess I can reread them twice!  :o

I'm reading The Case of the Missing Books. I wanted something light, but it's only OK.

Last night I finished "Adventures of a Continental Drifter" and I loved it.  It was hilarious.  I don't know what I'm going to read next.  Maybe I'll finish "The Scarlet Letter" or start something else.

I just finished Heart Shaped Box by Joe Hill (aka Stephen King's oldest son!)

Today I bought The Tao of Pooh and Indian Spirit.

It's dangerous to have a Waterstone's so close to the office!!

Right now I'm reading Underground London: Travels Beneath the City Streets, by Stephen Smith.

Next I'll either read The House of Mirth by Edith Wharton or Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke.
