Those are all really good books Lauren. :)

I haven't been reading as much lately. My only recent books have been -
Wool - Hugh Howey
Shift (Wool#2) - Hugh Howey looking forward to reading those soon
And The Mountains Echoed - Khaled Hosseini, this book is next on my to read list and is one of my most anticipated 2013 books, can't wait to read it.
Flow - Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (That sure is a name) this is a non fiction book and is the one I am currently reading. Almost done with it.

It's summer and hot out so I haven't been reading too much and yeah people could say "You can read outside" but... I dunno, reading has always been something I do indoors mostly or travelling. I don't really like sitting still in the sun.
