i'm going to read the new harry potter when it comes out. right now, i'm doing research for the book i'm working on. so, most of my reading is focused there. it's nonfiction. i loved P. Gregory's other bolyn girl and the trilogy related, but i couldn't even finish wideacre. i wanted to kill the main character myself, or at least have her redeem herself. it was so crazy-frustrating that i couldn't even finish it! i even sold it before i could finish it. HA! i love diana galbaldon's Outsider series, and Auel's Earth's Children series--but i've finished those. oh goodness, i read a ton all year round. it's just what i do. | |||

I'm currently reading 'emotionally intelligent parenting' and 'learned optimism' as I quickly evolve into a father Jonathon | |||
| |||
jonnie: start a new thread about your favorite parenting books and information that inspires you. i know that at least two of us would be interested, and the other parents can post what they've liked too. | |||

Ok Zoe, It's nearly midnight over here now, so I'll post that tomorrow... | |||

I wasn't going to read until that new Harry Potter book comes out. I was going to work hard on the project with the deadline for saturday. Oh well, so much for good intentions, my fingers were tired darn it, and the book was right there. Last night I read The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri, it was excellent, I loved it. So I stayed up too late and now I feel flakey. Oh well. By the way Jonnie, I wanted to say earlier but never did, I think you evolved into a father a few months ago, and now you evolve as a father. | |||

Expert Yogi Posts: 5098 Location: Somewhere in the Mountains of Western NC | Hey Shelly, My daughter is going crazy over this HP book. She has one on reserve for Friday. I am not allowed to do anything on that day except take her to the big city and get her copy. Then she say's she's booked for an entire weekend so she can read it...and it was like, don't bother me all weekend. I'm like...Oki Doki. She wants us to do a HP movie marathon after she's done. The last one we did was "The Lord of the Rings". God, I was glued to my chair an entire weekend. | ||

Exactly my situation here Cyndi, haha, my daughter is going to the midnight party to get the book, and told me I can read it only after she's read it twice. That's the same way it went with the other books which I loved reading. I don't think I'll see much of her this weekend. We're both kind of sad though that it's the last one. Oh well, attachments, attachments.... | |||

Last time I flew the Dubai - New York direct route, I watched Lord of the Rings 1, 2 and 3 all back to back... Jonathon | |||

Expert Yogi Posts: 8442 | I have finished Water for Elephants and it was a very interesting story. Told from the POV of an old man who had been in the circus in the 1930's. Lots of interesting historical stuff, circus stuff plus love story, mayhem, murder and contemplation on the meaning of life. Ideal summer reading | ||

Hi Tourist, that book sounds really interesting, any freaks involved? I'll definately put it on my list if there are. Jonnie, how do you do 14 hours on a plane? Is that you doing asana practice in the aisles? | |||
jonnie |
| ||
No, I'm too shy to do that Usually I watch lots of movies and read a good book. I really don't like to sleep on planes and will always avoid a night flight if possible. Jonathon | |||

Expert Yogi Posts: 8442 | Definitely freaks. And a dwarf is a prominent character | ||

Hey I finished the new Harry Potter. I enjoyed it, and now am looking around for some of the books I've been hearing about here. | |||
