OK, is 1,000 only available in hardback??  I went to buy it at WalMart and that is all they had...

K

[cindyj]

I only saw hardback...ended up getting a copy at the library...

[Debbi]

I don't think it is out in paper yet, but you can get it fairly cheap at Sam's or one of the other big box clubs.

I started it last night and ended up reading the first 150 pages - what a great read!  I am enjoying it just as much as Kite Runner, which I thought was excellent.

We are sure a well read group:-)
I am looking forward to this book as I really liked The Kite Runner.

[Kate B]

The book I'm currently reading is a mystery by Harlan Coben.  It's called Just One Look and it's a few years old.  I've never read Harlan Coben before, but the book cover says he's a New York Times Bestselling Author and that he wrote No Second Chance and Tell No One.

Just One Look is very captivating and I'm finding it hard to put it down.

Jan

Should we add that to the list?

Also, K suggested Tailspin..We have quite a list going.  Steve do you want to keep track of these in the list you began?

[Kaybo]

Kate~
Tailspin was a good book, but there are a whole lot in this series - you don't HAVE to have read one to enjoy the others, but it sure does help!

Current suggested reading list:

1. Black Wave, John and Jean Silverwood (Dana).
2. Just One Look, Harlan Coben (Jan).
3. Tailspin, Catherine Coulter (Kaybo).

Other authors: Tess Gerritsen, Iris Johannsen, ...

Debbi tells me it's "Tess Garritson" - to quote Jim Scott "my bad" 

Should be add The Shack (suggested by K) to the list?

Are you taking notes, Steve? 

K -

Now that you mention it, I've only seen Splendid Suns in hardback.  I bought mine at Books a Million at a fairly good price.  It's probably not in paperback yet since they just recently released Kite Runner in paperback and (I could be wrong here) I think it was written before Splendid Suns.

Jan

[sgerrard]

Actually Amazon, and the covers of all her books, have it as Tess Gerritsen. Duly noted.

Steve

Stupid me stayed up until 4:30 a.m. reading the Coben book   

Just couldn't put it down and wanted to see how it ended.

Guess I'll be spending the day trying not to nod off at my desk 

It was worth it though.

Great read.

Jan~
WOW!  If it kept you up until then, I may have to get it.  If you can stay up that late, you can get up at 5:15 and come to the gym!!

K

[Debbi]

Thanks for the correct spelling on Tess Gerritsen - I have eternal Happy Fingers when I am on here, so never use me as the barometer of good spelling...   

I'll throw out one for consideration and that's a book called "First Person Plural" by Dr. Cameron West.  It is actuall a memoir, but it is such a riveting story that I found it impossible to put down once I picked it up.  As a reference point, I am usually a fiction reader, so this was a departure for me.  It is the story of Dr. West who has DID (multiple personality disorder) - it is s testimony to the human spirit and to the love of family. Very uplifting.

BTW, I finished Suns last night - it was wonderful and I must have been keeping Jan company in the dark hours of the night as I was finishing it!

Yea, right, K   

Debbi - you're done already!     I haven't even started!

Oh Oh...I have to still get the book:-)  BTW, I passed around the Water For Elephant Book at work and people are liking it!
