White Girl Problems. The main character is a bit into herself, but I still like it. She states everything you think in your mind, but too afraid to say a loud. Still reading it.
I also bought the Hunger Games book wanted to read it before I saw the movie. After I read that trilogy I'm going to start the girl in the dragon tattoo trilogy.

Actually for a book that's directed at the tween market the Hunger Games are very good. I've read two out of three of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy so far and while I found them entertaining that first book took a while to pick up in my opinion but it still turned out to be a good read. Can't wait to get to the last one.

I´m reading "Female Chauvinist Pigs" for the second time. I highly recomend it! It´s a book that everyone should read at least once.

Just finished 50 Shades of Grey and I have moved on to Fifty Shades Darker. I was mocking these books for peddling sex but of course your tune can sure change when you actually start reading. Although, I must say the number of times Ana orgasms in the span of 24 hours is impossible and she never seems to mention messing up the sheets with it or anything. So internal orgasms? And they have sex so many times a day how isn't her vagina a sore and dry sponge?
And if I remember in the first book she and Christian have sex without a condom and he comes, she doesn't want to talk about that "first" in her life?

I think the "firsts" are more in reference to those both she and Christian share together. Having sex without a condom wasn't a first for him because the shot always came into play with everyone before.

Now of course I know that, but if you're narrating your experiences with sex and a guy comes in you---I bet you'll mention how the sensation is and how you felt when it happened. It was totally over looked.
Fair point well made. ;-)

I am reading "The Other Wes Moore." this book should be mandatory reading for all parents, educators, and anyone else who has a relationship with a child. It was written by Wes Moore and is a true story. Two African American boys born in the same year, same neighborhood, given the same name, absentee fathers, etc. One works in the White House, the other is on on Death Row for murder. The white house Wes Moore contacted the death row Wes Moore and wanted to see how their lives could be so entirely different when they shared so many similarities. Either could have ended up with the other's fate. This book shows how important the choices we make in life are and how any one person who touches a child's life can make a difference. If one adult would have reached out to the death row Wes Moore, his fate could have been changed. Heart breaking and interesting stuff! Saw it on a college required reading table and was interested since my Bachelor's was in Literature.
