Corelli's Mandolin. I've just started so I forgot who wrote it, but so far it's really good!

Ahh, I used to devour her books. Dragonriders. xD
I am reading Anathem by Neal Stephenson. Requires a lot of attention to follow so I hope it's worth it.

Just started with reading ''The Other Boleyn Girl'', it's already very nice to read, very easy and captivating.

Shame by Salman Rushdie. And it's excellent so far.
I recently finished Corelli's Mandolin by Louis de Bernieres and that was completely fantastic. One of the best books I've ever read.

I'm reading "Eldest", by Christopher Paolini.
Just finished "Eragon" and I'm really hoping the second book will be as good, but I've heard by some that it's not... T_T

hahaha, one thing that I've learned over the years is that you have to make your own decision about books or movies. Many different things appeal to different people and this is no different.. (WOW, the word 'different' 3 times in one sentence, lol)
I can't count how many times I was told that I would enjoy 'this' book or not like 'that' movie and many times my reaction to the 'item' was just the opposite. I will read a book ( I read a LOT!) and if I like it, might even go looking for more by that author. The same goes for movies, I have seen literally hundreds of movies ever since I started going to the drive-in movies as a child and have read even longer, starting with comic books, lol...
All you can do, Jelly, is check it out, try reading it and if it isn't your cup of tea, then so be it. You go and try another. hahaha, my 10-yr old grandson recommended a book to me and, yes, it was geared to the mind of a child, but I still read the entire 8-vol series. It was kinda like a childish Harry Potter.
At any rate, check out the book first. It may be that you won't like it, but maybe you will. Make the decision by yourself, for yourself...
(damn, sound like a parent)

((oh yeah, I AM one, lol)
