I’ve been reading a lot of good books lately. Here is an updated 2008 Book List for the nerds like me out there. =) I just finished Beautiful Lies by Lisa Unger. I couldn’t wait to get to the end, and then I was sad that I was done. That is the sign of a really good book.

I’m about 100 pages into The Other Mother..enjoying it so far!
How in the hell did you find time to read 7 books in March?
I wish I could read more. It’s so hard to read for pleasure when I read
so much for school. I’ll have to check out Beautiful Lies and Water for
Elephants.

Holy Crap!! How do you have time to read all those books!! I barely ever get the chance to take a pee by myself, I look at my bookshelves & think 1 day I’ll read them!! I just barely finished a book I started while I was pregnant on bed rest, pitiful I know, it took about 8 months to read 1 book
I can finish a whole book when we travel, the kids are strapped in, Brad drives & I kick my feet up & read the whole way! I think that is why I’d rather drive 10 hours than fly for 5!! Now that I havr written a novel I will go! Thanks for the recomendations! I’ll pick one of these for my next road trip!!

You bookworm, you! We have read and liked lots of the same ones so I will have to check out Beautiful Lies. I need a good one to devour while the boys nap :)!

Good job! I’m so impressed! I have only read 1 book this year. So much for my “at least one book a month” resolution!
Are you on Good Reads? I’m on there so I can see what my friends read and like!

You have inspired me! I love to read but never seem to finish any book I have started.
