What book are you currently reading?

I'm about 2 chapters into 'How to Practice: The way to a meaningful life'

 

by: The Dalai Lama

Does this book talk about mindful meditation at all? I took a class in this 2 years ago and it was really helpful. "Practice" was a key element.

I am just about to start...

The Spiritual Walker

FItness walking for clarity, balance, and spiritual connection.

Just finished A Thousand Splendid Suns, can't decide if I liked this one or the Kite Runner better. Has anyone read these two?

I have heard great things about Kite Runner but haven't read it yet.

I think I would have to go with liking "A Thousand Splendid Suns" better, but you're right - it's a tough choice. I guess I don't think that "Kite Runner" held-up as well through the ending as did the other. Both were exceptional though.

Right now I'm reading "Survivor" by Chuck Palahniuk and "The Subterraneans" by Kerouac.

I've been reading "the gospel of inclusion" by carlton pearson. "The grace awakening" by chuck swindoll. "Classic Christianity" by bob george.

I'm also reading "grace rules" by steve mcvey. I don't read just one book at a time and I rarely read a book in its entirety. If I wrote my own book I probably wouldn't finish reading it. I read some of the epistles in the new testament bible too.

Just finished The Life of Pi last night

Marley and Me...Though, I read 3/4 of it and put it down about three weeks ago. Not that it was bad, I just had other things to do. I'm actually looknig forward to finishing it.

They are both wonderful books, but I like A Thousand Splendid Suns better.

just finished Memory Keeper's Daughter.

Here's another one I'm reading. It's by Martin Zender. The title is "How to be free from sin WHILE smoking a cigarette."

The title can apply to other weaknesses or addictions if smoking is not your addiction. As for me it's "How to be free from sin WHILE masturbating" or "How to be free from sin WHILE drinking too many soft drinks."

Or "how to be free from sin WHILE sexually fantasizing about God."

My book is called Operation Sunshine. Light hearted. Female writer called Jenny Colgan.

I read a LOT of Stephen King, but currently am reading about oh, 4 or 5 books? haha. The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, some book i found at a random store in the mountains called Michaels Evil Deeds by E. Phillips Oppenheim written in 1920, bought it for 2$ and with a name like that how could i pass it up? i mean really? and I am also reading Getting the love you want by Harville Hendrix PHD, and also the last book in the gunslinger series by Stephen King. I just dont want the adventure to be over, so even though i bought that book the day it came out, I cannot bring myself to finish it =(....

I'm currently reading "Shantaram"

reading 'wolf captured' by jane lindskold

48 laws of power. Prolly the best book on social strategies I've ever read. Always welcome recommendations for better books on social strategies though.

The Seven Spritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra it sounds easy enough. We will see.

Mun

I am currently reading "The human Stain" by Phillip Roth. I took a break from it to read "The Kite Runner" which I really enjoyed. Before that I read "A thousand splendid suns" etc... etc... I love to read.

I saw a little quote it says "Alas, she is to fond of books and it has addled her brain" makes me laugh!

They are both wonderful books, but I like A Thousand Splendid Suns better.

LOL! Just finished it. Loved them both.

just finished Memory Keeper's Daughter.

How did you like it. I read it as well for my book club & Im curious to know what you thought of it!

I have been listening to a lot of audio books. But one of the last actual books I read was Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri. I loved the first book I read by her, Interpreter of Maladies, and her only novel, The Namesake.

This book did not disappoint. It was wonderful. I highly, highly recommed everyone read her. I am not a huge fan of the short story, but she is brilliant.

The Tin Roof Blowdown, James Lee Burke

feel the fear and do it anyway.

I just tore through the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyers and am now reading "Something Borrowed" by Emily Griffin.

I've been needing a little escape since work and my life has been quite stressful lately.
