Exactly my choice of books. ABSOLUTELY LOVED the Twilight series. Need to reread them before the new movie is released.
Time Travelers wife - absolutely fabolous book and I also like the Alex Cross books although I haven't read all of them. Just too many books and not enough time!

Just read "The Secret Garden" for the first time. Good book, I will recommend it to my 10 year old daughter.

Now starting "The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test" by Tom Wolfe. This is a reread from my college years. Long, long ago. I don't think I will be recommending this to my daughter, though. Not for a while yet.

I have just started "Brilliant Children, Fascinating Learners" by Augusto Cury. very interesting so far.

I do not know if it is translated in English but I found this link.

Augusto Cury - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I've read almost all of James Patterson's books.I like almost all of them except the ones about the children with wings.If you haven't read the Murder Club Mysteries seris start with the first one obviously(1st To Die, I think and it goes all the way to 8th Confession) Swimsuit was the last one I read it was good.(beware it's pretty kinky)

Tami Hoag's books are "who done its" usually with a woman as the main charactor. They are good page turners.

I like to read her books too.

Currently I am reading Sandra Brown's ENVY......I can't get enough of her writing.

Then I'm going to do the Murder Club ones by James Patterson.....

I'm reading through all the free or almost free books I downloaded on my Kindle. I just finished Pacific Avenue by Anne L. Watson and have now started on Magic Kingdom for Sale--Sold! by Terry Brooks. Once I finish these Kindle books I will start on the new Diana Gabaldon, An Echo in the Bone...can't wait, loved The Outlander series.

I'm in the middle of The Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood. I already requested her previous book, Oryx and Crake, with some of the same characters from Flood. Very different and interesting...
