It's Monday! What Are You Reading? July 12, 2010

>> Monday, July 12, 2010

Hello there, its sure been a while and while I haven't been posting, I sure have still been reading.  This meme is by Sheila at her Book Journey  Go and check her blog out!

Currently:

I'm heavy into The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and absolutely loving it!!  So far, highly recommended and I can't wait to find out what happens!

Recently:

Last week I finished Fever Dream, which is the latest in the Special Agent Pendergast series by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child.  I found the story to be a bit different than the others but just as enjoyable.

I also recently read the first Jack Reacher novel by Lee Child, Killing Floor (Jack Reacher, No. 1).  Another Jack in my life and I ate it up!  I've got the next one, Die Trying (Jack Reacher, No. 2) on tap but am not sure if that's going to be my next book or not!

I won, in a blog giveaway, Ciao Bella: A Novel, which is a love story set after the second world war.  A few plot twists and its not as predictable as you first might think!

So, what have you been reading?
