Hi Everyone,

The first two on my list to read ASAP in the New Year are:

The Goldfinch (Tartt).

Life After Life (Atkinson).

You?

TIA

Well I started MONDAY MORNINGS, I am about half way through, but I just can't get into it. I am going to download either ORPHAN TRAIN or THE BOOK THIEF tonight. Both have good reviews. I really love books from that era.

I loved both THE BOOK THIEF and ORPHAN TRAIN! Both are great books!

Loved The Book Thief.

My son is reading it now. Never read Orphan Train. Have to go investigate.

Thanks for playing along.

I have a few books leftover from 2013 challenges I need to finish, but then I'm going for The Goldfinch and the latest Ladies Detective Agency release.

Hi insomniac-looks like The Goldfinch is a popular one for many lately--I've seen it on many blogs and Best Of lists. Can't wait to read it, too.

THAT is shocking to me as that was a book I plowed through even knowing and having seen the show on tv!! We all sure have different tastes and it is fun to see people's likes and dislikes!! ${#emotions_dlg.biggrin}$

Thanks for the replies, everyone. Ringer-It always amazes me how personal books are. After being in a book club for a bunch of years there were some meetings where people would literally throw their book (in jest) at whoever chose it, and wonder aloud about how anyone could like it? And of course, someone always liked it! And vice versa.
