I am a non-fiction lover; I hardly ever read non-fiction. I have most of the best sellers listed, but I always have such a backlog of TBR books that they usually sit quite a while!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have read any of these yet. I will read Dead in The Family soon.
ReplyDeleteWith respect to EAt, pray, love; I couldn't finish it. It was too long, and dragged. I got bored.
ReplyDeleteThe 5 love Languages; Great, superb! Gary Chapman knows what he's talking about. The book shares 5 personality types that we tend to have in relationships. It also has test/discussion questions at the end for you and your significant other to share together.
The only one I've read is The Five Love Languages. Good book. I have several of these on my TBR shelf (literally), but just haven't had the chance yet!
ReplyDeleteI loved (loved!) The Help, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and The Girl Who Played with Fire.
ReplyDeleteI thought Little Bee was ok.
I enjoyed Eat, Pray, Love but I can see where some people would find it annoying. I have no desire to see the movie.
