Book Club

Since quite a few of us expressed an interest in reading, I thought I would start a book club thread. Tell us what you are currently reading. Tell us books you have read in the recent past, and a brief review, good, bad, exciting, boring, etc..  Books on addiction, fiction, or non fiction. Reading is probably my favorite hobby. I read for entertainment, to learn, and to escape reality for a while.  So, what's on your bookshelf, or IPad, or Kindle?

Currently, I am reading W is for Wasted by Sue Grafton. I've read her entire series and love it. It's a murder, mystery with great characters!  Recently, I have read the Husbands Secret by Liane Moriarty, Defending Jacob by William Landay, and Gone girl by Gillian Flynn. Yes, I read a lot!  One of the best addiction books I've read recently is Guts by Kristen Johnston. I could really relate to her story of addiction to prescription pain meds and alcohol.

Can't wait to hear your suggestions!

I was just searching for a new book on my Kindle, and noticed for the first time beside buy now was Borrow for Free, and above that learn how. Nothing happens when I hit learn how.

Does anyone know this feature? I'm sure there is a catch! TY!

Rosy, that sounds creepy lol.

I just finished Danielle Steele's new book Winners. It made me sad throughout.

Does anyone read Kathy Reichs? She's awesome. The tv show Bones is based on her books.
