Last weeks reads:
Runaway Quilt by Jennifer Chiaverini .... very nice. I think though that there is only one more book left in the series. I'll be so sad :-(
Secrets of the Code by Dan Burstein. Interesting ... made me think, made me wonder, I loved Da Vinci Code so I had to read this one. And speaking of Dan Brown, apparently the next book is coming out next year sometime. I'm excited and can't wait! LOL
Armageddon and Glorious Appearing by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. Yeah, didn't end with quite the bang I thought it would. I'm glad I finished the series though ... but now it's time for different books!
and of course ...
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling. I'm one of those people who got it at midnight. I finished it yesterday. Much, much, much better than the 5th book (I think the 5th book is by far the absolute worst acctually LOL!). I've already been discussing the book with at least one person ... which is great =)

Okay, I finished The Queen's Fool: A Novel by Philippa Gregory. As with her other book, I loved it! I couldn't put it down ... it was sooooo good! I have another of her books on hold at the library just awaiting it to come in!

Also read:
The Cross Country Quilters by Jennifer Chiaverini ... as with the first 2 quilting books, this was wonderful. This book, however, was about a different group of woman than the first two books. I liked them, but I want to read about the original group some more and continue with this new group! LOL
Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons by Lorna Landvik. I liked it a lot. I was sad at the sad parts and happy at the happy parts! LOL!

Really, I think I know why I enjoy the quilt series and the AHEB so much ... it's becuase it was woman who were part of a group. I wish I had a book club like in AHEB. I wish I had a quilting group like in Chiaverini's books. I think that's why I'm so taken with them honestly!

I have about 8 books from the library sitting at home, so hopefully I'll get some more good reading done! =)

A few more reads ...

Okay, read some more books! LOL!
First of all, finished Shadow Divers and I absolutely loved it!! It was so good.
Also read:

The Simple Faith of Mister Rogers by amy Hollingsowrth. Yeah, it was okay. I loved Mr. Rogers growing up, this made me love him more, but I don't know that I loved the writing style so much, if that makes any sense at all?
Round Robin by Jennifer Chiaverini ... better than the first book in the series! I had to request the third book and it will be ready for pick-up tomorrow (yeah!)
Desecration: Antichrist Takes the Throne (Book 9) and The Remnant: On the Brink of Armageddon (Book 10) by Jim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... almost done with the series now. I admit book 9 made me feel like it was all dragging but it sped up in book 10 thankfully! LOL!

Currently reading
The Queen's Fool: A Novel by Philippa Gregory ... I've read her other book and LOVED it and so far this is starting off just as well!

Reading Report ...

Well, I haven't managed to do anything else, but I have managed to read a ton. Mostly becuase reading I can do lying down with ease and it's easy to do outside when it's 90 degrees! LOL!!
Anyway, since I haven't done anything in several months but reading, I'm going to write a list of what I've read since it's about all I have to talk about anymore! LOL!

The Taking by Dean Koontz ... didn't like it!
False Memory by Dean Koontz .... better than the other one!
Sole Survivor by Dean Koontz ... so-so
Frankenstein: Book One The Prodigal Son by Dean Koontz (what can I say, my aunt is in love with Koontz and brought me a bunch of her books to borrow! LOL!) ... now this one, I didn't think I would like it, but I can NOT wait for book two to come out (soon too!)
Valhala Rising by Clive Cussler ... hooked me!
The Indwelling (book 7) by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... I love this series
The Mark (book 8) by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... book 9 is sitting in my TBR pile!
The Splitting Storm by Rene Gutteridge ... okay
(I read another book here, but for the life of me can't remember the title!)
The Piano Teacher by Lynn York ... okay
Quilter's Apprentice by Jennifer Chiaverini ... so good! 2nd book in the series is in my TBR pile!
Bee Season by Myla Goldberg ... it was so-so
Black Wind by Clive Cussler with Dirk Cussler - good
And I'm about 85% done with
Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson ... I am LOVING this book! LOL!

Still missing ...

Still trying to get over all the illness. Still not doing anything these days. I was supposed to teach knitting on Sunday, but the class was cancelled. Although it wasn't cancelled by me, I was thankful anyway!
I'm approaching the end of the first trimester, and just starting to feel a bit better, so I hope that I continue to feel better so I can get working on projects again! =)
