Books, Books, Books

I've been reading again. Well, I rarely ever stop. I've read some lately that I want to share.

I read East of Eden by John Steinbeck for book club. It was long but absolutely brilliant. If you want a good classic to read, this is it. It has a little bit of everything and it just really makes you think about family, sin, love, human nature, etc. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Divergent and sequel Insurgent by Veronica Roth were awesome. Like "I read each in a day and stayed up until 2am reading" awesome. They were well written and the story moved really well. It's a different take on the distopia novel. They actually have a fairly ordered society, yet there is the ugly underbelly. There is a lot that happens you don't expect, especially at the end of Insurgent. It really makes me antsy for the third book. No idea when that will come. So I have to fill my time reading other things.

Any good books you've read lately? I have a ton on my list right now, but I'm always open to more suggestions.
