Personally, I'm going to stop with this series, it's getting dirtier and stupider as it goes along. I did read Mindy Kaling and thought she was funny, so thanks for the suggestion.Tricia Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-59316739626737742612012-05-31T19:13:17.493-04:002012-05-31T19:13:17.493-04:00I started reading the Stephanie Plum series after ...I started reading the Stephanie Plum series after your last book list! <br /><br />Love me some Joe Morelli!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14309920235271421080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-38569843235868436002012-05-23T17:04:14.718-04:002012-05-23T17:04:14.718-04:00I do that with the Plum books too! :) Most of the ...I do that with the Plum books too! :) Most of the outfits she puts on are so dated it's distracting to try to picture it! haha. <br /><br />The Mindy Kaling book sounds good!

(And if you choose it as your chick-lit style book for your summer book club, let me know and I will send you some fun bookmarks, temporary tattoos for her upcoming Summer Days, Summer Nights, and All Summer Long books that come out this summer :) )<br /><br />I'm a huge reader!

Junie B actually made my list for last month. I've reread the whole series for the third time this past month with my kids. Love those books. If you haven't read Unbroken by Laura Hilenbrand you should. Phenomenal...best book I read this year. Also, Bossy Pants was pretty good if you like Mandy Kaling's book. Check out my reading lists on my blog for more ideas. I feature at least 5 a month. It will get you started!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00453791558601335940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-15801373261837123052012-05-22T14:51:26.645-04:002012-05-22T14:51:26.645-04:00I have only recently started reading again.

There is a lot more to the books than just that, though. Princesses - spoiler alert - they're not always treated like a princess. The first book is hard to get into at first. A chapter about one person followed by a chapter about another person. Hard to get them all straight at first. But if you stick with it, you may like it. Judging by the other books you listed, I'm not sure, though. In places, it's kinda dark. <br /><br />Love Evanovich, she is SO funny. Thanks for the recommendation of Kaling and Andrews. Been looking for a new author to follow and you gave me TWO.Barbara Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14426824680357022697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-16092185299977473742012-05-22T11:34:22.152-04:002012-05-22T11:34:22.152-04:00Loved Mindy Kaling's book!

What are you thinking? ;)<br /><br />Read the first Game of Thrones book, it is really good. <br /><br />Some Mary Kay Andrews I like, some I don't. I hope this one is a good 'un. <br /><br />I also highly recommend "The Mill River Recluse". It spent a lot of time on the best seller lists and it is really good. <br /><br />LorrieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-15811713095533349182012-05-22T10:32:27.729-04:002012-05-22T10:32:27.729-04:00Can you believe I've never read Mary Kay Andre...Can you believe I've never read Mary Kay Andrews?

Game of Thrones is a great choice! This is the first fantasy book series I've enjoyed since I was a child reading CS Lewis. And when your done with the book watch season 1 of the HBO series, it goes along pretty well with the book. I am currently on the 2nd book Clash of Kings, while also trying to watch season 2, that is not going along as well with the book, but is still very good. (Warning: there is a lot of nudity, sex, violence, and awful language in the book and the show)Crystal Diazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09971219299550380224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-75773502862422606922012-05-22T08:35:56.779-04:002012-05-22T08:35:56.779-04:00I LOVE Mary Kay Andrews!

But be warned...they are over 1000 pages each. At least it will occupy your time. =)<br /><br />Jill @ Create.Craft.Love.Jill @ Create.Craft.Love.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09818830616484313464noreply@blogger.com
