What I'm Reading Now
Rachel
Recently I've been in a bit of a book rut. I tend to go through spurts where I can't get through books fast enough, and then will take long lulls of not being inspired by any to read. When I saw that Khaled Housseini had come out with a new book, And The Mountains Echoed, I downloaded it onto my Kindle without even reading the synopsis. After being totally obsessed with A Thousand Splendid Suns and liking The Kite Runner (not as much as Suns, though), I knew that this would be a book to add to my list. At just 50 pages in, I've already cried twice. Sigh.
On a happier note, I also just finished Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns) by Mindy Kaling. I blew right through this one. I was actually quite indifferent towards her prior to reading her book and only picked it up as a nice, easy read and hoping for a few laughs. Well, I ended up laughing out loud through the whole thing. Defnitely recommend!
What are you reading lately?

So good to know!! I saw this book in the bookstore recently and was intrigued.
I'm reading (and LOVING) Dan Brown's Inferno now. I was in a book rut too but this one rekindled my love for reading. Good one to add to your summer read list.
I saw Mindy's book and I am currently indifferent as well. That might be a great read for my upcoming trip! I also loved Kite Runner and Thousand Splendid Suns. Can't wait to hear what you think of the new book!
I have been dying to read both of those books! did you read BossyPants? was one of my favorite laugh out loud books!
Humm... havent heard of either book but they sound really good. I just finally finished the last book of the Hunger Games trilogy. Worth every minute I spent reading it. SOOO GOOD
I can't wait to read Khaled Hosseini's new book! And I loved Mindy's :)
