happy friday, lovelies!
well it's been a busy week: cheerleading, etsy-mini parties, building my pretend dream home.

so i thought we'd celebrate friday by taking a few moments to relax, put up our feet, and hear what you're reading these days.
tell us! & waddaya think of it so far?

hope your weekend is filled with great stories, nicies!

    I'm so jealous of your "Donne" book! I've been trying to find a nice one for years.

    Right now I'm trying to devour "The Autobiography of Henry VIII". It's only 1000 pages long. Haha, oh well.

    for my book club right now. A few chapters in and I love it so far. The author is going to visit our discussion so it should be fun.

    Reading _A Conspiracy of Kings_ by Megan Whelan Turner (who also wrote _The Thief_, which someone above me mentioned). So amazing. I write in this genre, and...there are just some authors that intimidate me because they are WAY TOO GOOD. Yes, she is one. No, I cannot wait to spend Saturday finishing this up.

    I'm reading 'Creativity for Life' by Eric Maisel (awesome book!) and just starting 'Barney's Version' by Mordecai Richler. Read it years ago and loved it.

    I'm rereading "100 years of Solitude" for a new book club we've started at work and I LOVE it AGAIN!

    That's not always the case when I revisit works.

    Interesting to see what everyone is reading. Great idea!

    I love murder and mayhem, fantasy and scifi - and not afraid to admit it! definitely for escape, not for edification. Currently, J.R.Ward brotherhood book (vampires and lots of sex-eek), next P.D. Cast Hunted(vampires) and then new Sookie book. and yes I have bad dreams.

    I'm reading Hugh MacLennan's "The Watch that Ends the Night" my absolute favorite book. I've recently written a post about it (http://thirdst.blogspot.com/2010/05/paradoxical-spring-slow-down.html) and plan to do a geeky self motivated bloggy book report once I'm all done. Please don't ask me why...
