I'm reading way too many books at the same time right now...

The White Man's Burden by William Easterly (my friend lent me and I have to give it back!)
Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak (it's just too huge to take it out with me...)
The Collected Works of Nathanael West (I've read one of the four works included already)
Snow Falling on Cedars by David Guterson (again, too big to be portable)
The Tell-Tale Heart and Other Stories by Edgar Allan Poe (slowly going through those)
Tropic of Cancer by Henry Miller (my current "bus book")

I really need to sort things out

 

[Alvedansen]

help!
i need a book recommendation. i can't decide what i want to read next...i like pretty much every genre, i wouldn't even mind a romance/chick-lit novel at the moment, i just need something light, quick and fun. just nothing that involves a lot of thinking, please (i'm still suffering from the aftermaths of a concussion, my head is spinning just sitting up, i don't think i could master Shakespeare right now)

^ Mm, maybe you would like One Day by David Nicholls. It's witty and romantic and definitely easy to read.

Right now I'm reading Silver Linings Playbook by Matthew Quick. I haven't seen the film because I want to read the book first. So far, so good. It's very insightful in a lot of ways, whether about love or loss or mental illnesses. Plus it's easy to read and Lord knows I need that right now.

 

[Alvedansen]

^thanks, but unfortunately i've already read that

i read a quick ya novel yesterday (exactly what i needed), now I'm reading Skin by Mo Hayder (a thriller, the first in a long time, hope it's a good one)

 

[Tiffannie]

The Moon and Sixpence by W. Somerset Maugham

 

[kismine]

Dr. No by Ian Fleming

 

[Juliette]

The Host by Stephenie Meyer. Don't judge me!

 

[alicia753]

I have read it too and I have really loved it!

Currently, I read White Bird in a Blizzard, by Laura Kasischke, and it's just beautifully written and subtile, and delicate.

I am currently reading, Scandal in Spring (Book #4 aka the final book in the Wallflowers series) by Lisa Kleypas. B)
