Book Talk: I've Been Reading...

Would you believe that my To Be Read pile might just be a tiny bit smaller?  I know.  I find it hard to believe either.  But I'm pretty sure that one pile is looking just a teeny tiny bit less like a tower waiting to smother me in my sleep to one that's just a bit pissed off that it's taken me this long to getting around making a dent.  

So the reading and the trying not to add to the pile so far seems to be going well.  I just have to resist the temptation to browse anything remotely book related.  I can do that.  Right?

So what's been on my reading radar...

Well YA has been featuring a bit lately with a whole lot of authors I've haven't read before.  But whom I'm going to be keeping an eye out for more by them.

Subjects covered ranged from death to abandonment, dating to self confidence and all were really about finding your place in the world and being comfortable in your own skin.

As always YA hits the mark spot on and I pretty much loved all of these.

After that it was a bit of mixture of genres with a thriller, a romantic suspense and an historical.  The last two were a definite step away from my usual crime and chick lit and although I didn't love them I didn't hate them either which is always a good thing.
