Books I Have Started But Haven't Finished

Under the Dome, by Stephen King

Alice in Wonderland, by T.T. Sutherland (Not the original--it's a book based on the movie)


Returning to Earth, by Jim Harrison

These are all books I've read the first 100 or so pages of in the last 2 weeks. First was the King book--pretty good, very long, not enough time to read it. The Alice book: kind of sophmoreish, lent it to my sister. The Harrison novel is the book club selection. I just started it last night, but I have too much stuff to do. I can't fit reading in any time this week. What I've read, though, I like.

Useless post, I know, some day I hope to start these again and I need a place to record the titles, :P.

Two Very Different Books

Shutter Island, By Dennis Lehane

Dragged at times, so that I had to skim a lot of sections. That led to a quick reading, and a false sense of urgency. Both actually added to the experience. It was surprising--not what I expected from the previews for the movie--and very good.

Anyone But You, by Jennifer Crusie (audiobook)

This actually made me LOL! I liked it way more than I thought I would--I've read Crusie before, and I'm not a huge fan of her writing style. But having it read to me instead of having to read it was MUCH better! She could have made it way shorter if Nina'd stopped saying "don't think that!" and "squash those feelings!" and "he doesn't like you that way!" You start to get really pissy with her after awhile.
