RIP Mr. Vonnegut. Perhaps the greatest modern day social critic and satirist. Finally began Cormac McCarthy's newer one "The Road" Oh man, some real dark, frightening stuff in there!

Once you finish The Road, Sockeye, post your impressions on The Road book discussion. We would love to hear what you think.
I think it is interesting that readers have walked away from this book with such diverse thoughts and feelings.
I just started An Irish Doctor by Patrick Taylor. This is the first book I have read by this author, and although I am only 60 pages or so into it, it is enjoyable enough, but not too cerebral.
The most interesting aspect of the book is the Ulster dialect in which it is written. You must really depend on the glossary in the back to fill you in on what local folks are saying. It's a fun read.
Just started Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin and recently finished Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert which was a really fantastic book!
Finished the Da Vinci Code twice, as well as Holy Blood Holy Grail
All of the Harry Potter books
Memoirs of a Geisha (love the movie too)
The Five People You Meet in Heaven and For One More Day
Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer
The Host by Stephenie Meyer
Wicked and Son of a Witch by Gregory Maguire
Words in a French Life
The Clan of the Cave Bear series (for the third time)
Mists of Avalon
Not a novel, but fascinating anyway... Destiny of Souls by Michael Newton

My all time Favorite book is Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison. I can go on and on. But the the book I keep going back to over and over again is 1-2-3 Magic: Effective Discipline for Children 2-12. I love my kids but they drive me crazy
