Since this is my most visited blog I decided to make a "Top 7 new books to read!" list and post it. It's for anyone looking for new books to read for book clubs or just their next fiction read. Let it be known that I personally haven't read ANY of these and am currently taking donations?? Anyone? I'd love you forever! (EMAIL ME, haha)
After Reading 'Pillars Of The Earth' I'm eager to try another Ken Follett novel. Plus, it's only $13.20 at Amazon right now!
World Without End by Ken Follett.
So, I have a THING for Oprah's Book club. Sometimes I love their books, other times they were just ho hum or unfinishable. Sometimes I wonder if they pre-read these things or not! But seriously now, there was a time when I read a chunk of her books in a row and I was DIGGING them! So, I often do suggestions from her. So, this is Oprah Book Club #62.
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle: A Novel
I'm a big Web 2.0 geek. Most designers (graphic), art directors, bloggers, programmers.. we're all the same at heart. We love learning from tech geeks like Seth Godin. He's my purple cow.
Tribes: We Need You to Lead Us by Seth Godin
I also run my own business and I'm going through hiring my very first assistant right now. It's so scary. I have no idea how to hire and I know the right hire can either help or hinder my direct success. Plus, how can you resist an educational book written by a guy with the last name 'Smart'? ;p
Who: The A Method for Hiringby Geoff Smart
The much anticipated and probably amazingly fantastic....
The Hour I First Believed: A Novel by Wally Lamb
This one I think has been out for a little while but I've heard a few people recommend it recently. I think it must be decent if I've at least heard of it!
The Zookeeper's Wife: A War Story by Diane Ackerman
I'm part of a book club (that I'm yet to meet) though we're two months in. Ok, yes, I'm the not doing so great at the attendance part but I'm keeping my end of the reading deal. This is next months:
My Sister's Keeper: A Novelby Jodi Picoult
PS. Yes, I know 7 is a funny number. I was doing 10 but I'm tired and I want to go to sleep. :) Plus, I won't have any reading time if I type on here too late.
