To share and discuss any books we have our heads stuck in at the moment, be they Christian or your standard novel.

I'm reading "Trophy Wives Club" by Kristin Billerbeck.
Christian chick lit.

 

[Holly's_Dream]

Christian chick lit? Such a thing exists? For some reason a church version of Mills & Boon doesnt sound all that appealing
Any good.

I've currently got 1 or 2 chapters left on a book called The Rapture by Liz Jensen.
I love Liz's novels and this is her latest, although as you can probably guess by the title, this does have some heavy referencing to the Bible despite her not being a Christian author.
Next book on my stack i think is 'Diary of a teenage girl' by Melody Carlson. According to the blurb, it's about teenage discovery, and discovering God.

I'm just about half way through Robert Rankin "The Da-da-de-da-da Code"

.. It's odd, but amusing, and a writer that I like allot. not quite as good as "Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of The Apocalypse" but it's been amusing none the less.

 

[NiobiumTragedy]

Just starting Murder At LaMut by Raymond E Feist.

I really like stuff by Robert Liparulo.
I am currently reading Lemony Snicket books.
the next book I want to read is Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy.

oh yes! I like her stuff as well.
I started to read her stuff when I got 'my name is chloe' one year for Christmas. I have read a few more books by her in the 'chloe' series, there are probably a lot more now since I have last looked into them lol

 

[Marycita]

Caitlin's part of the series is my favorite (also was the first)

So, I'm a total bookworm, so you'll see me in this thread a lot.

I just finished "The Lovely Bones." Really good book and I would recommend it.

I just started "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy." I'm on chapter 8 and I swear I have never laughed so hard with a book as I am with this one.

The Spirit of The Disciplines: Understanding How God Changes Lives
by Dallas Willard

Highly Recommended.

I've seen the Lovely Bones film but not read the book <--- I line a usually hate people saying.
Have you seen the movie, if so, what's the verdict, they rarely meet expectation.

 

[Rikki_renee]

The book called Heaven is For Real is an awesome read!

And also the Left Behind series. I'm currently reading those and I can't put them down. To be quiet honest I seen the first book on the bookshelf and started reading it and it helped me to realize that I needed to get my walk right with God again!

 

[JFitz]

Anyone ever read The Shack? It's amazing! It brought me closer to god every page.

 

[NiobiumTragedy]

Going to start Game of Thrones soon. Just finished watching the first part of the series and Amazon had the 4 books in one pack for $19.

 

[Rikki_renee]

[Beccafly]

I just started Eat, Pray, Love. Wow, fantastic book and hard to put down!

 

[Rikki_renee]

I just seen that movie not to long ago! great movie also!

 

[Beccafly]

I really want to see the movie once I'm done =)

 

[Rikki_renee]
