 What's everyone reading these days? We leave for vacation tomorrow so I bought a few books to read on the boat. One is a romance novel by Linda Needham. The title of it just drew me in, "For My Lady's Kiss". Now doesn't that just sound romantic? I've never read anything by her, I hope it's good. I bought another called "Long River Winding", it's about Life, Love, and Death along the Connecticut River, a journey along 410 miles of the river and four centuries of history by author Jim Bissland. The last one is "Day Of Infamy", the story of Pearl Harbor by author Walter Lord. A bit of variety.

| Just went to the library today and got the new book that my book club is reading. "Never Change" by Elizabeth Berg. I am not familiar with the book and have never read anything else by the author.

| I'm not familiar with that author either Shaina. Let me know if it's any good.

| I just read the 5 set of Harry Potter (in 5 days)- very good. I also just read 20,000 leagues under the sea. I am in between books right now. I am thinking about picking up the LOTR trilogy again...... |

| Well, today I read: 1. Ord & the Shining Star 2. Beauty & the Beast, Friends Are Sweet 3. Honey Rabbit 4. Eeyore Has a Birthday 5. Opposites But today was a slow reading day for my girls.  I think I only read the Opposites one and the Eeyore one twice today. Yesterday, I read the Wild Animals book (6 times), Ernie & Bert Can...Can you? (3 times), Spongebob's Meet My Friends, The Foot Book, Donald's Magic Stone, & What Is Your Language (2 times). And that was just to my 1 yr old....she is a bookworm. Give her a choice between a book and a toy and she will almost always pick the book. And she has an AMAZING attention span. I swear she'll be reading by the time she's 3. __________________ Check out these [Only registered and activated users can see links.

| If you don't count the books I read to the kids (ages 4 and 5), I'm reading the new Jean Auel book "Shelters of Stone", and am waiting for hubby to be done with the new Harry Potter so I can finish re-reading that one, too. I read it, but then we started listening to it as a book on tape when we went to a wedding a week ago, and we only got through chapter 14, so I need to finish it again. __________________ Check out these [Only registered and activated users can see links.

| Just finished "Name Dropping" by Jane Heller. It was very good. It's about two women with the same name living in the same apartment ... and the mixups that occur because of it ... everything from new love to murder. It's actually quite humorous and read fast because I really got into the story. I have read another book by Jane Heller, and it was very good. That prompted me to get all of her other books that my library carries. Her style seems to be light and witty, with a twist of intrigue. __________________ Check out these [Only registered and activated users can see links.

| I am on my 4th book in the Dragonlance books by Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman (and others). So far these are great books I just don't know what order to read them. Has anyone else read these books? Does it matter the order I read them as long as I finish each set I start?

| Princess Charming by Jane Heller. Wish I could write like this woman ... very sharp and witty. Anyone who has been on a cruise would probably enjoy it.
