Do Hard Things
A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations
by Alex and Brett Harris

 

Just finished the first book in Turtledove's new series on the alternative timeline for WWII, a three book series by Hemry (Campbell - Lost Fleet series) on warfare on the moon and an alternative philosophical evolution of the US civilian and military culture from the perspective of a Sgt. Stark, and a book of short stories on space based conflict and warfare.

Short stories by O. Henry

 

"The Lost Symbol"

 

Dan Brown's my favorite author. Just getting ready to start on this. 8)

Also will be trying to suffer thru "All Quiet on the Western Front", along with my teenage daughter.... :?

 

Good luck to you. I hated that book almost as much as i hated "Lord of the Flies." So very bland.

 

I just finished that book also. I found it very difficult to read. All that jumping around was very confusing for me. It wasn't as good as I thought it would be.

 

How are you doing?

 

it has been hard to follow all of the jumping around but i have really enjoyed it. hopefully be done tonight.

 

Got home today around lunch. :hurray::hurray::hurray: Feel pretty good and look daggone FINE!!!....all things considered! 8)

Hope your sister is doing well, y'all have been in my prayers.

 

Great, glad to hear it. My sister is doing well, thank you. She feels a little better each day. Thanks for the prayers, you've been in mine as well.

 

My son is reading that in 9th grade english right now. Funny to hear his comments as he reads it at night.

 

Just finished: "Same Kind of Different as Me" by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. It has been out for several years. True story. Religious. Denver Moore was a homeless uneducated black and Ron Hall is a succesful art dealer.

 

Going thru some of the older books of my collection - currently re-reading Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility".

 

Exit to Eden by Anne Rice....

I read it several years ago, but I'd forgotten and ordered it thru PaperBackSwap, so I'm reading it again, lol....

 

Read it a number of years ago, but after . . .

I don't think I can again. 8)

 

I know....I know!

But you gotta admit, she's never looked that good! That was a great time for her!

 

Finishing up "The Lost Symbol", another good read by Dan Brown. 8)

Will probably get into "Have A Little Faith", Mitch Albom's latest inspiration next.

 

Has anyone read "The Lucky One" by Nicholas Sparks, yet?
Just looked it up at amazon.com and he mentions NC State and Chapel Hill on the first few pages! *grin*
