I think I've picked up about three different books to start and then I've put them all down. After Harry Potter, I guess maybe I'm not as anxious to jump into anything. I'm still thinking about the last book!

I finished listening to "The Da Vinci Code" and haven't started listening to anything yet either. I've never been this indecisive! I have to make decisions all day long at work, maybe my brain needs a break.

I think I'm going with "An Assembly Such as This" by Pamela Aiden. It's a trilogy that is basically "Pride & Prejudice" told from Darcy's point of view. I've read the first couple of chapters and I think I'll continue on with it since my book club is reading "Pride & Prejudice." I've read P&P a couple of times now (the last time was about 6-8 months ago) so I don't think I'll re-read before our book club on Aug. 5th.

I've found a wonderful website about everything Jane Austen: http://www.jasna.org/

I haven't read all of her works--I have yet to read: "Emma," "Northanger Abbey," and "Mansfield Park" to read. She's just so witty and funny! I love her!

I am finished with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I won't spoil it for those of you who haven't finished yet. I loved it...I think the way Rowling ended it was perfect. It's definitely up for discussion! And those in my book club: you better be finished by Aug 5th so we can chat!!! :)

Now for what to read next...

Hope you are all having a fabulous week! I'm exhausted, but that's because I have stayed up late reading. Ron was in Pueblo so I didn't have anything distracting me. I don't feel like I rushed through--I really did enjoy it! Night Night!

Sorry about the million posts on HP--they weren't showing up last night when I hit the save button. Oh well...now you know how much I love it! I know I know just like everybody else.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I finished "Endangered Species" just in time for my HP book to arrive in the mail on Saturday. I promise not to put spoilers on here withought a warning. :) I love it so far though and no, I have not peeked at the last page! One of my favorite characters hasn't shown up yet though--that's Neville. I wonder where he'll be. I also love Ron Weasley, Professor McGonogal (sp?), Tonks, Lupin and Luna Lovegood. I love to hate Lucius Malfoy, Umbridge, and of course Snape.

Happy Reading!

At last Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is here! I'm about 250 pages in and I love it so far. I have not looked at the last pages to see what happens--I want to enjoy it page by page. :) I hope all the Pott-heads out there are enjoying the last book!

At last, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is here! My book arrived in my mailbox yesterday as promised by Amazon. I also won't spoil anything for anyone...although at some point I will have to talk about it. :) I'm about 250 pages.

Hope all you Pott-heads are enjoying this one!

Audio Books

Ok well...in addition to reading books I like listening to them on CD/tape. It makes my 20 mile commute to work go by so fast some days that it doesn't feel like I'm in the car for very long. Plus I like that it's not interrupted by commercials! The radio gets annoying after awhile.

I am listening to "The Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown. I wasn't one of the first to read it when it came out in fact I think it had been on the bestseller list for over two years by the time I read it. My friend Jennie bought a used copy of the book on CD that is read by Peter Micheals--she said I should listen to it. It is very fun and the narrator is fantastic. I don't speak French so hearing it makes it a little more real. I'm at the part where Sophie and Robert Langdon have gotten the rosewood box out of the Swiss Bank. Silas has killed the nun and is on his way to the Teacher's place. Now I want to go to France!!

Only 4 days until Harry...
