One site that I like better than Pixel of Ink is Kindle on The Cheap (KoTC). Received notification from them on lots of books that went on sale that were on my TBR list.

This conversation is making me want to start reading the whole series again. Maybe not a bad idea... then I'll be ready for the new book when it comes out this fall.

I just started reading the Maxium Ride series from James Patterson. I'm on the first book and so far I like it.

I am on book 3. It's a fun series. A little repetitive at times but I am enjoying it.

I'm reading The Dog Next Door: And Other Stories of the Dogs We Love by Callie Smith Grant. Short stories of dogs and how they've affected their families' lives. Very good and each dog's story is only a few pages so it's good for short bits of time. I picked it up when the Kindle edition was free last month and just started it a few days ago.

Just finished December's Thorn by Phillip DePoy and have to say I have found a new (to me) author who I love! His book kept me guessing until the end and then blew me away with the ending. Plan on going back and reading all of his books, especially the ones with Fever Devilin as the main character.
I am getting set to read Nano by Robin Cook, another of my favorite writers.

I finished up the 3rd Maximum Ride book and I enjoyed it probablly because I wasn't expecting much. I read a review that referred to the series a "junk food" for the brain and I would have to agree. But you know what? sometimes you just enjoy a little junk food.
SPOILER about author
I read that James Patterson uses ghost writers. I couldn't help but think there were several sections that were written by someone else. The story was a little disjointed at times. Even the style of writing seemed to change as if it was written by multiple people. It was at if he gave an assignment to 2 people and then rather then pick the best he just used both. So the storyline unnaturally repeated itself.

I recently read The Cedar Cove Series #2-#6 by Debbie Macomber. Light romance, fluffy, predictable reads. I got tired of all the women basing their identities around whether a man would or would not want them. Each book does A LOT of recap of the previous one, so they are very quick to read.
I'm curious to see how it ends, so I'll read the rest of the series and skip the boring parts.

I didn't like The Dog Next Door: And Other Stories of the Dogs We Love as much as the other books of short dog stories I've read lately. Too many backyard breeders and sad endings.

I have these on my list to read. I will get to them one day! Too many books to read and not enough time. lol

Downloaded Pango Pango Tango on my Kindle today. Looked interesting and is set in Pango Pango - a place we love. Looks like a good murder mystery. I think it is $1.88 or $1.89 today through Amazon.
