I love your stack of books. I read Plan B a couple of weeks ago and I’m just finishing up Bird by Bird, which has helped me tremendously as I figure out a way to make myself Write That Book.

If you are interested in nonfiction by Kingsolver, I recommend Animal, Vegetable, Miracle.

I’m currently reading Bird by Bird, Outliers, The Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, Free-Range Kids and Moral Disorder. Five books. I find I like to have multiple books going and nibble little bits from each every day. Like a nice buffet.

I’m enjoying your blog very much. I hope you’ll take the time to visit mine when you have the chance.

I loved A Thousand Splendid Suns. I want to read it again, so that may be in my next pile.

I read 5 books at a time, too! BUT mine are littered throughout the house, so I almost always have one in reach somewhere!

Right now, A Thousand Splendid Suns, A Girl of the Limberlost, Chesapeake, Atlas Shrugged, The Knitter’s Book of Yarn. I can recommend 4 of them to you!

Actually, knitting is my yoga, so you could always take up a new hobby, and I’d recommend all 5 of them!

I just finished reading Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. It is a book unlike anything I have ever read, but completely mesmerizing. It’s a commitment, almost 1,000 pages, but so worth it.

It was one of those books that I couldn’t wait to get home to read and I was sad when it was over. Check it out.

I am SOOOO excited. I had no idea Barbara Kingsglover had a new book! Poisonwood Bible is my all time favorite book. I hope her new one is half as good. I really liked Eat, Pray, Love. Must mostly the Eat part. Made me want to visit Italy again… be single and kid free again too!

I’m the same as you reading more than one. Most are books I would NEVER think of reading but somehow have them and really like! Right now I’m LOVING the vampire series by Charlaine Harris. They are addicting!! It’s the books the HBO series True Blood are based on. I’m actually listening to the audio books. The reader is fantastic with the voices and it helps me zone out while I’m cleaning and I actually get the cleaning done and not distracted like usual. LOL!

Books I’m reading in paper are…
Patrick Swayze’s Biography- I know, I’m a dork! But, I always loved him as an actor and his story is intriguing.

The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. A fun easy read.
