I carried all my library books back today. I hope the books I checked out today will be more interesting than the last ones. Jodi Picoult is one of my favorite authors. I hope I found a book of hers I haven’t read. The Book of Two Ways, the title doesn’t look familiar so if I find I’ve read it, I should enjoy reading it again.
I also found a book by Jan Karon, another favorite author. The title is, In the Company of Others. I’m almost sure I haven’t read it. I also checked out a book by Flannery O’Conner. I know I’ve read all her books but I’ll enjoy reading it again.
What are you reading this week and who are your favorite authors?

@allknowing It would be a dull world if we all liked the same things.

I have just started another Kids' book by a famous Indian author of Anglo-Indian origin Ruskin Bond.
I will share more in one of my coming posts.
So is the genre you are following is Romantic, Family, or some other complex inter-personal relationship type?

So well, are there any twists and turns or anything unexpected in this story?

I'm reading No Second Chance by Harlan Coben. There is a french tv show based on the book. I watched it a few weeks ago. My favorite authors are Steve Berry, Sue Grafton, Amanda Foody, Kent Wayne, Stephen King, and Kylie Chan. I also like Jennifer Givhan.

Jojo Moyes is another of my favorites. I’ve liked all her books but my favorite was the book about early Appalachia . I don’t remember the title. It is about the librarian who rode a horse to get books to people who had no libraries. I don’t think I have that mixed up with Jodi Picoult. I sometimes get the two mixed up..

I have heard of Jodi Picoult and there are some here that have read some of her books. I never read any of them yet but noticed when I was getting only two books at the bookstore that they had her but did not get. The other authors I have not heard of. I like Ludlum and am finishing a Bourne book now. It is very good and I just do not have the time to read like I once did. Since I do not go out much to appointments I do not take a book to read while waiting. I also like Faye Kellerman and her Decker family episodes. I have an Elizabeth George book to start after I finish my Bourne one and like Daniel Silva books too and there are others but cannot think of the names right now.

I haven't read anything for several years. I am thinking of starting some audio books or even an ebook.

@celticeagle Audios are good too if you enjoy them, with me, I must have the book in my hand to keep up with what’s going on in the story.
