        I picked up The Dwarves from my building’s lobby (we have a big bookcase where we leave books we’ve read and don’t intend to keep, and pick up ones other residents have dropped off). It’s a translation of a German high fantasy novel by Markus Heitz. If you like the genre, I recommend it – it’s incredibly rich and the characters are well developed very engaging.

          I’m rereading The Book Thief, which I’ve probably posted before. It’s AMAZING, by Markus Zusak, really well written.

                Q8, I love The Dwarves! I’ve read the first three books, still have to get the fourth.

                  I love Donna Tartt. I read the Goldfinch last summer. I’m reading Canada by Richard Ford now.

                      Non-Fiction – Esther the Wonder Pig- Changing the World One Heart at a Time.

                      Anyone know about Esther? She’s a social media sensation. I love her.

                        Hahaha sorry LPT don’t know about Esther but just have to say that pic of a Bindi Hood as your profile picture is just too adorable!

                        Anyway I’m making a little break form The Malazan Book of the Fallen (whom I can’t recommend highly enough) read 5 of 10. And reading Isaac Asimov’s Naked Sun.

                          Cinny– Great book!

                          I just finished 2 books over the weekend. “No such person” by Caroline B. Cooney, and “The River”. I’ll have to check who wrote it, I can’t find it out online. I need to make a trip to the library ASAP. Any suggestions on what to read? I generally just pick stuff out of the YA because why not? Open to suggestions though!

                            I just found this cool website where you can buy books for very cheap and if your purchase is over $10 the shipping is free in the USA… I generally don’t purchase books (because I don’t often re-read books enough to make purchasing a $20 book worth it…BUT I may have to look into this a little more )

                              Niamian: Woohoo! I’ve added the Malazan series to my list of books to read. LOVE fantasy novels.

                              Moxie: YA lit is great. If you haven’t already, check out The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, as well as Rule of the Bone by Russell Banks

                                Yeeey! Q8 believe me yiu won’t be disappointed.
                                First one is the slowest, but even that awesome. Steven Erikson is an archaeologist and antrophologist. And I must say I haven’t seen a writer with better understanding of human cultures and civilizations.

                                  Yay, more Erikson fans ^_^ I’m currently reading “House of Chains” from the Malazan Book of the Fallen series.

                                    Absolutlely want to see this in London West End !
                                    When I was there in May, my sis-in-law didn’t really want to, so we saw Charlie and the Choc Factory instead – but its on my list to go to next…

                                      Just got back from the Library! My haul consists of “The Fault In Our Stars” by John Green, “Salt to the Sea” by Ruta Sepetys, “Shadow Scale” by Rachel Hartman, “Will Grayson” by John Green & David Levithan, and “Half Wild” by Sally Green.

                                      I’ve got some reading to do!

                                          Yey Ellie! Actually Erikson was recommended to me from my friend from Nederland, so is there some thing about him in Holland I don’t know about lol.
                                          Btw. “House of Chains” Karsa Orlong? I hated that guy at the beginning but he grows on you, you will see.

                                            Yup! And they’re all great! At least the ones I’ve read. Did you finish the first one yet?

                                                Q8, summertime book binges are great! Summer is a requirement though and we’ve been a bit lacking in that dept lately. Last summer I read Watership Down and the Goldfinch and re-read the Alexandria Quartet in my hammock, but this year I’d need to build an igloo a around it if I were to sit there and read. A rain-proof igloo :/

                                                    MK: The Skloot book is quite good – I had to read it for a course way back when I was pre-med, and although not my genre, I really enjoyed it.

                                                        “Child 44” by Tom Rob Smith (NOTE: There is a graphic scene involving killing a cat, so it’s not for everyone.) And also “Insects: The Yearbook of Agriculture 1952.” by the US Department of Agriculture… My reading interests are weird, don’t judge me lol. I buy books at yard sales and it looked interesting, and looks cool on my shelf.

I’m running out of book shelf space, too.  I at least TRY to read what I buy though before it’s banished to the shelf to sit and look pretty.
