A few days ago I bought and started tearing "Turtles All the Way Down" by John Green. It's pretty good so far. I really like his style of writing and I have read all his books so far and loved them. I also downloaded the WWE wrestler Shawn Michaels book to see how he tells his story from his own point of view, but I haven't gotten past the forward. It's also on my Kindle app on my phone so I'm trying to save it to read when I'm waiting for appointments or on break at work. But what are you currently reading?

I'm just about finished with Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King, co-written by his son Owen King.

@thislittlepennyearns I don't necessarily have a favorite book. I thoroughly enjoyed the Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris, and I own and have read every single Stephen King book ever written, and Clive Barker and Dean Koontz are also authors I really like.

I am a bit behind on my reading. I need to catch up. I was reading The Dark Tower series and kind of fell off from reading it. I need to get back to it soon

@thislittlepennyearns I read the entire The Dark Tower series. Disappointing conclusion which Stephen King apologized for the lameness.

@thislittlepennyearns Basically about a man uncovering a mysterious network of corruption in the society. It's a historical fiction-thriller.

@thislittlepennyearns Time travel, dinosaurs, Martians... the usual. From Goodreads: "Robert J. Sawyer is one of Canada's best known and most successful science fiction writers. He is the only Canadian (and one of only 7 writers in the world) to have won all three of the top international awards for science fiction: the 1995 Nebula Award for The Terminal Experiment, the 2003 Hugo Award for Hominids, and the 2006 John W. Campbell Memorial Award for Mindscan."

I'm reading Written In my Heart's Own Blood which is Book 8 of the Outlander series and the last one published to date. The author is currently writing the 9th book and says it will be published at the end of 2018, She also has plans for a 10th novel. I just can't get enough Outlander!

@thislittlepennyearns The first book took me some time to get into but once I was into it, that was it. The second book is widely acknowledged to be the worst in the series but you have to read it in order to understand what happens. The 3rd book is my favorite.

I'm currently reading "When the Bishop Needs AN Alibi" by Vannetta Chapman. It's in the series The Amish Bishop Mysteries. I love reading these types of books. I love inspirational mysteries. This book is about the friend of the Bishop gets killed while trying to find her husbands killer and the bishop finds her body and is accused of killing her. Really good book. I know several run-on sentences.
