What are you reading? (continued)

The Twelve by Justin Cronin. Really enjoying it, then all at once I get to a new chapter with new people and I have no idea what is going on! I suppose it will come around sooner or later, but it's kind of weird right now...

It get better, Tower. Just don't stop midstream of a chapter, or you will be totally lost. Post it notes help too

I just finished The Dinner by Herman Koch. Fascinating story that goes in unexpected (and un-PC) directions.

Just recently read 50 Shades of Grey (disliked it intensely; based off Twilight fan fiction, I think it makes Twilight more decent by comparison). Also read Mark of Athena; EXCELLENT. Just re-read The Shining, impatiently awaiting Dr. Sleep! Right now I am delving back into Needful Things; after that I thought I might go through the Auel Clan of the Cave Bear series again. Funds are low, so a lot of re-reads happening!

It kinda scares me to see all the books coming out that contain what alot of people here are referring to as badly written. I haven't read either the 'Grey' or 'Twilight' series (and based on what most are saying here I never will) so I can't absolutely be sure about the quality of writing in either of those series, but I am going to go with the majority of voters and not read either one. Just scares me that this might be the first sign of the dumbing-down of America. I'm not slamming anyone out there who's read and enjoyed either of these series, so don't take it personally, please. Just stating an opinion.

Finished the book few weeks ago and you describe exactly the feelings I had when I started a new section. It does come around kinda sorta.

The wheel of time series, only on book two right now though. They can get a teensy bit cheesy sometimes but good fun all the same!

The Fall by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan, the second book in The Strain series.

Finished Wind Through the Keyhole, which I thought was great, and now about halfway through The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert Heinlein.

I'm currently reading "Last Night in Twisted River." This is the first novel by John Irving where I haven't seen the movie first.
