Nora Roberts again with her second novel of the Chesapeak trilogy: Rising Tides. Very quick reads so I will probably be nearly finished when my new amazon delivery arrives mid of this week.
Among others, I ordered Shutter Island and Mystic River by Dennis Lehane which was recommended here. I hope that both are as good as promised lol

Also Biting The Moon by Martha Grimes hard to digest some of the symbolism but very good once you figure it out.

I'm currently reading "Northanger Abbey" by Jane Austen. Very sweet and charming. I like her sense of humor.

I started reading The Help by Kathryn Stockett yesterday after having just finished Shutter Island.
Actually I wasn't expecting much. I find that when I finish a book that is truly a good read, as Shutter Island is, I sort of dread starting a new one (but that doesn't stop me) because I'm afraid I will be let down.
Well, The Help is an amazing book. I can't put it down. It's sort of a cross between To Kill A Mockingbird and Fried Green Tomatoes At the Whistlestop Cafe. It's in the deep South and all the morés that entails. 1960s. It has humor, sadness, tragedy and mystery. The characters are so real and the reader is actually inside their heads. I highly recommend it.
