Bookworms Unite!

I love to read. I usually have a bunch of books on the go, though I try to limit myself to one piece of fiction at a time so I don't get completely confused. I used to work in a bookstore, where people asked for my opinion on books all the time. These days, I don't get to talk about books much, so I thought I'd share some of my recent reads with you, dear reader. I've had a busy year, finishing an intense education program, so lately, I've been looking for fluff. The novel equivalent of a candy bar. That means lots of genre fiction and mass market paperbacks. My reading list isn't for everyone, but summer is coming up, and who doesn't love a breezy beach read?

I am currently reading:

The Torn Skirt by Rebecca Godfrey

What the Dog Saw: And Other Adventures by Malcolm Gladwell

The books I've read since January (that I remember):

We So Seldom Look on Love by Barbara Gowdy

The Harper Connelly Mysteries by Charlaine Harris: Grave Sight, Grave Secret, Grave Surprise and An Ice Cold Grave

Long Lost by Harlan Coben

ON/IN/AT- 3 books by Tegan and Sara

6 volumes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 8 in graphic novel form

Coraline by Neil Gaiman

206 Bones by Kathy Reichs

Candy Girl by Diablo Cody

There might be more, but 20 books is pretty good!

As for what's up next: I just bought Generation A by Douglas Coupland and hope to get my hands on Caught by Harlan Coben if my mother lets me borrow it. And of course, there is a new Sookie Stackhouse novel around the corner- Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris. It’s coming out May 4th and I can hardly wait!
