I love book lists! What did you think of Water for elephants and the girl with a dragon tattoo? I have wanted to read them but I got mixed reviews from friends so they keep getting moved further down my to read list.

Oooh! Thanks for the suggestions! What ones are your faves?

wow Danielle! That is awesome...even with a new infant. You are amazing! I am readying Wild Swans by Jung Chang...it is a book about the history of China. It is fascinating and a really good read. If you are looking for a new book...I highly recommend it.

Okay, I have a few recommendations. First of all, you should join goodreads.com and/or shelfari.com. and post your books and see what your friends are reading....look for me there :)
I agree with the Escobar's about Wild Swans. My favorites lately are: The Help, River of Doubt, Three Cups of Tea, Tending Roses, Peace Like a River, These Is My Words, and Gone With The Wind. My favorite of the above: The Help and These Is My Words.

Ah, to read. I really need to make more time for it. I seem to find myself creating or cooking when I have free time. I do love a good book though!
Push Not the River - loved it.

I'm taking notes on your list! :) I loved Water for Elephants. It's been a few years since I read it, but I was so captivated by it. Thanks for some great suggestions!
