The Time Traveller's Wife, Audrey Niffenegger. It's pretty good, like I told DH last night, it's like Dr. Who for girls. :D

I finished Confusion by Elizabeth Jane Howard.  I don't have the next one in the series, so I will try to get that today or tomorrow from the library.  Right now I'm reading Hostages to Fortune by Elizabeth Cambridge.

Finished Cinnamon Kiss by Walter Mosley last night. Still reading Far From the Madding Crowd online while at work, and planning to start on The Post-Birthday World by Lionel Shriver at home this weekend.

To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth Hoyt. My friend is trying to corrupt me with trashy novels!  ;D

Far From the Madding Crowd online. I like it so far.  :) I'm reading Stephenie Meyer's The Host at home. 

I loved The Host! It was totally surprising to me, and brilliant at the same time. I didn't like it when it was on audio books, though. The voice actress sounded so metallic and weird.

Yeah, I really liked The Host. I don't do audio books, so I wouldn't know about that one! Apparently they are going to make a film sometime soon, according to Stephenie Meyer's website. Might be interesting...

Good to know! I just ordered The Host because I like the Twilight Series so much I thought this one would be good too. I really wish they would get a move on putting the last two films out.

Yeah, the first few chapters are a bit strange and hard to get into, but once you get past that bit, it all makes more sense later on.  My coworker loaned it to me because she couldn't get into it at first, but now she is going to try again.  :)

I just finished Dear John early this morning and I bawled like a baby! I'm both looking forward to the movie and not looking forward to it at the same time.

The Post-Birthday World by Lionel Shriver. I really like it, but it's really making me sad at the same time. Also, still reading Far From the Madding Crowd online at work. Shhhhh.  ;)

I finished Lady Rose and Mrs. Memmary by Ruby Ferguson (very sweet book), Bricks and Mortar by Helen Ashton (very good but a bit sad), and Cheerful Weather for the Wedding by Julia Strachey (very strange).  I'm in the middle of The Far Cry by Emma Smith.
