The new Flavia de Luce novel. Not sure if these are marketed to YA or regular adult mystery readers (I think it's the latter) but they could easily go either way.
I'd say the latter. (Just read this one and really enjoyed it.)
You are also doing NetGalley?
I'm reading The Undomestic Goddness by Sophie Kinsella and I'm really enjoying it (as always with Sophie Kinsella).

When I'm done, I'll probably read All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin since I own the first two books in this series and the last one is comming out tomorrow (also, it sounds like a really good serie!), or the Burning sky by Sherry Thomas or the first volume of the Morganville vampire (again, since the last one is comming out soon).

Have you read any of them. Any idea wich one I should pick?
Novels currently at bat are: Perfectible Animals by Thomas Norwood, Horrors of History edited by Kristen Duvall, Fatal Tide by Lis Wiehl, and 1920: America's Great War by Robert Conroy. In addition to those already on my currently reading list.

Yep.
Currently reading: too many books at once! Last night, The Winter King, which is about Henry VII, won the sweepstakes. A fascinating bit about his dabbling in the international alum trade (a much desired good in the textile business), and this is probably a large reason why he was the richest ruler in Europe.
Anyone read The Interestings? I have it from the library and I'm wondering if it's, you know, interesting.
I am new to this site so HELLO everyone!

Currently I'm reading Animate Me by Ruth Clampett. It's a fluffy romance-y book so far, but it has made me laugh out loud. It also has a lot of geeky animation references that are very entertaining.
I'm currently reading The Forest Wife by Theresa Tomlinson, a YA medieval historical novel, focusing on a medieval girl from the nobility who ran away to the forest to avoid an arranged marriage and named herself Marian. There is so far only a parenthetic mention of someone who is very likely Robin Hood, but I read the comments that Stephen Knight wrote about this book in Robin Hood: A Mythic Biography, so I know it isn't really centered on Robin Hood. It's quietly feminist and Knight says that there are some interesting spirituality elements. So I'm sticking with it even though it's rather low key. It's short, so I'm more tolerant.
Need help?
