So what's everyone currently reading? I'm reading "The Historian" by Elizabeth Kostova so far it's an interesting and excellent read. Has anyone else read this books, thoughts?
I love this story. It's a little heavy and soap opera-esque, but it's a tragically beautiful story of four siblings forced to live in their grandmother's attic. A real tear-jerker.
Since I loved the first book so much I wanted to read on. It took awhile for me to acquire all the books, the second one in particular. I really liked the whole series. The rest of the series focuses on the effects on the attic on the children. The very last book is a prequel and is the grandmother's story.
I even have some of my friends and my mother reading the books. They also really like them.

if you have problems with reading about incest, sex, murder, rape, and vulgar language I would suggest not reading these books.. it's not terrible but it's a shock if anything.

I was just wondering if anyone here is ever heard of the series, "The Black Book: Diary of a Teenage Stud." I read that a few months ago, and enjoyed it.
Currently, I've just finished reading "1984", for the second time.
I just started, "Franny and Zooey," by Salinger. I like it, thus far.

I recently finished Lucky by Alice Sebold (The author of The Lovely Bones) It was wonderful in a sad mixed up sort of tragic way. Lucky's Alice's story of her rape that prompted to her writing of The Lovely Bones. If you read The Lovely Bones you'll like this one too. I highly recommend both books.
i just finished reading beloved by toni morrison for discussion groups in english class. its one of those books where the order of things is totally off. i've heard great things about toni morrison, but it was all from teachers. i enjoyed the book and might read more of this author.
