I LOVE to read and up until Christmas, couldn't remember the last book I read 'just for fun'. My 12-yr old daughter loves animals and wants to breed/train horses when she grows up so, for Christmas, I bought her the book All Creatures Great and Small by James Herriot. I remember having read this book as a child and absolutely loved it. I've since bought the rest of the series for her as a birthday gift, but we have started reading aloud together, a few chapters every night... and it's been wonderful.

Just wondered what some of you are reading, and why.....

8-30-05 Met David at a restaurant in Germany

3-28-06 David 'officially' proposed

4-26-06 I-129F mailed

9-25-06 Interview: APPROVED!

10-16-06 Flt to US, POE Detroit

11-5-06 Married

7-2-07 Green card received

9-12-08 Filed for divorce

12-5-08 Court hearing - divorce final

A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" comes together.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.

I usually read John Grisham but I decided I'd change it up a bit so I just finished reading True Believer by Nicholas Sparks. It was very different from John Grisham but very good also. It was a little slow at the beginning but once I got into it I loved it. The ending was especially nice. I would definitely recommend it to someone else to read.

Just couldn't stay my @ss away!

Right now I'm almost finished with "The Kite Runner".

It's very good, but really sad :(

"We are the real countries,

Not the boundaries drawn on maps,

With the names of powerful men.

That's all I've wanted -

To walk in such a place with you,

On an earth without maps."

James Herriot books are wonderful!!!!!!!! He's one of my favorite authors. The book im reading now is called Second Chances, inspiring stories of dog adoption. Petfinder.com presents it. After im done with this one i'll be re-reading Marley and Me by John Grogan.

Most of what I read now is simply for that "switch off" at night. Currently reading "High Five" by Janet Evanovich.

I don't have to concentrate much, it's funny, I like the character and it's not badly written. I like a good thriller/mystery crime book.

I did all the heavy reading a few years ago and just can't be bothered anymore. Too much hard work!

Body of Secrets, by James Bamford.

Anatomy of the Ultra-Secret NSA.

Some truth within, yet many inaccuracies.

Nevertheless, an interesting read.

I used to read all of Clancy and his derivatives but recently I got hooked on David Baldacci (Camel Club, End Game), Vince Flynn and Catherine Coulter.

YMMV
