Originally Posted By jasmine7 I've got a bad habit of reading multiple books at once, too, piper. I am trying to limit that, though. Still reading Shutter Island. Just a fabulous book, and I'm so darn excited for the movie now! Also reading American Gods, rereading The Stand, and working through Self-Editing for Fiction Writers.

Originally Posted By jasmine7 Finished up Shutter Island last night (stayed up till after 11 to do so, lol). It was a major mind trip, but in a wonderful way. It's still sticking with me this morning, and it infiltrated my dreams last night. If you enjoy a good book, no matter the genre, get it! Going to start on All the King's Men today.
