Book recommendations?
What is everybody reading? Anything good to recommend? I saw some on Diana's new quiz. I am always looking for a good book.

I love to read books by Karen Kingsbury. My favorite is Ocean's Apart. Have the tissues nearby though.

I rec'd two new books for Christmas and then I bought one when Lynne and I went to the Pet Expo. I've started reading The Happy Dog by Bill Rafferty. We also met him at the expo. He is Oprah's groomer. So far I really like the book.
The two I rec'd for Christmas were How to Raise the Perfect Dog by Cesar Milan and Letters To My Sister by Maya Angelou. Can't wait to start reading the last one, but I need to clear my head a bit so I can really enjoy it.

I am almost finished reading this best seller from the NYTimes called "Firefly Lane " by Kirstin Hannah.. It is truly a good book and will warm your hearts. Most of us grew up in the early 70s and will relate to this.. I recommend it.

That sounds like a good one Gina.
Judy....are Stephen King books horror books? I somehow have that in my mind. Never read any of his books, just saw previews of some movies and not sure I would like that. Tell me a bit more about him and his books please.

Janet I never was interested in his books either, I saw a movie on tv based on his book and it was scary. I am not into horror books either, I believe his books are based on that... |

Definitely horror! They are scary, and so are the movie adaptations of his stuff.
If you don't like scary, keep away from Stephen King!

I don't read anything by Stephen King either. I don't watch his movies either.....too scary for me!!!
Right now Karen Kingsbury is my very favorite author. Her books really draw you into them. She is a fantastic writer!!! You can find them at Wal-mart.
