Right now I am reading "This Side of Heaven" by Karen Robards.
I have gotten bored with my regular authors. Last night I started one of those old gothic novels........I haven't read one of those in years :)

Which gothic novel Pal? I cannot think of the name right now, but I am reading an Anne Rice book, she has three separate stories in this one book
It's called "The Witching Night" by C. S. Cody.............I fully expect it will be a complete bore but it might surprise me. As a teen, I didn't mind the Gothics because they were quick and mindless reading. I've read dozens and dozens of them and can't really remember one of them because they are just so generic. Kind of like eating junk food.........it fills ya up and gives you temporary satisfaction but you wouldn't recommend it......

Just finished the Twilight series of four books -- I'm a teacher and a lot of my female students are really into this series (by Stephenie Myer). If someone had told me how much I would enjoy reading a vampire lovestory, I never would have believed it. It's mindless reading but, oh, so entertaining.

I just finished "The Host" by Stephenie Meyer (the "Twilight" author). Kinda wierd, but pretty good. Now, I'm reading "The Shack"...a Christian fiction book.
