Great books!  I work alone overnights and drive a lot so I've been using audible to listen on my iPhone. I think it's great for my situation. I am currently in the middle of
A World Without Heroes
By Brandon Mull
So far I'm very happy with it.

The Shunned House by H.P. Lovecraft. I've always wanted to read him and never did, so now I'm starting!

Let me know how it is! Like you, I always intended to read some Lovecraft but never have - he lived in Providence, RI, where I used to live and I've seen his house, grave, etc. Bizarre man.

I'm off on the train to the Olympics later today so I've got some fluffy reading lined up - My Last Duchess by Daisy Goodwin.

Finally finished Cutting For Stone. I found it slow to get going, but it did hook me once the boys started growing up. Still, the ending left me a bit cold. I felt like the writer got bored with the intricacies and just took an easy out. That said, I'd recommend.

I just read Born to Rise: A Story of Children and Teachers Reaching Their Highest Potential by Deborah Kenny - in two days!  It was an inspiring book, and echoed so many of my own thoughts about education over the years.  I wish I could work for her.

Well this was ages ago, but I've read a couple of his short stories and plan to read more (I purchased a collection of them). I've liked them very much so far. He uses a lot of really wonderful language, you can see the influence from Poe in his work, and they're just generally entertaining. All in all, very happy to have finally gotten around to reading him!

Thanks for the review!

I've just read Black Swan Green by David Mitchell, which I looooved and can't recommend enough.

A Dance with Dragons
1: Dreams and Dust by Martin

and

An Introduction to Animals and Political Theory by Cochrane

I've started reading Deja Dead by Kathy Reichs. I adore the show Bones here in the states and figured it was time to read where the show idea came from.

I'm about to restart reading Michael Connelly's 'City of Bones.' I was able to get about halfway through it before I moved to the UK but had to return it due to it being a library book. Turns out my husband owns it! Just found it yesterday when I was unpacking from our move to the house.

My son loved that book. I really need to read it.

Mira Grant's "Feed" is on sale in the US kindle store for $1.99.  I've not had a chance to read past the prologue but I keep hearing very enthusiastic things about her, both the Newsflesh trilogy and the books she's published under her own name, Seanan McGuire.

I loved it!  Mind you, I read it so many years ago that I almost qualify as a different person/reader now, so who knows? But I remember it very fondly.
