I am currently reading a bestseller in which I am almost finished called:

No Time For Goodbye by Linwood Barclay

The house was deathly quiet!. That was the first sign that something was terribly wrong!. Fourteen-year-old Cynthia Bigge woke that morning to find herself alone!. Her family—mother, father, and brother—had vanished without a word, without a note, without a trace!. Twenty-five years later, Cynthia is still looking for answers!. Now she is about to learn the devastating truth!.

From critically acclaimed author Linwood Barclay comes a new suspense thriller that strikes to the core of our most primal fear!. What if you woke one day to find your entire life had changed!? If everyone you loved had disappeared overnight without so much as a chance to ask why!?

Cynthia and Terry Archer still live in Milford, Connecticut, not far from the old Bigge house on Hickory Street!. With a solid marriage and a young daughter, the Archers seem on track for a successful future!. But the questions raised by Cynthia’s past still haunt her, and her obsession to find the answers threatens to destroy everything they’ve worked for!. For Cynthia, there can be no closure until she finds out why her family disappeared—and how they could have left her behind!.

Terry thinks the segment on the popular TV crime-stopper program Deadline is a mistake!. But his wife hopes that someone watching will have a lead to her missing family!. Sure enough, it’s Cynthia who spots the strange car cruising the neighborhood, hears the untraceable phone calls, and discovers the ominous “gifts!.” And as Cynthia’s nerves begin to unravel, no one’s innocence is guaranteed, not even her own!. By the time the first body is found, it’s clear that her past is more of a mystery than she ever imagined—or may ever survive!.

Someone has returned to this Connecticut town to finish what was started twenty-five years ago!. And by the time Terry and Cynthia discover the killer’s shocking identity, it will be too late even for goodbye!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

:-) I have no idea where that thing gets its categories!. P&S I understead, but Hockey!?

I'm ashamed to say I'm reading City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare!. It's not very creative, and some parts seem to be ripped straight out of Harry Potter, and most characters are complete stereotypes with nothing else added!.

In spite of that, though, I'm enjoying it!. It's an interesting story, and Clare is definitely good at the writing!. The action scenes are very good!. And Simon is just!.!.!.:-)

I'm reading Mistress of the Sun, but Sandra Gulland!. It's well written, and it was enjoyable!. It's set in 17th century royal court, and the main character is an unconventional lady-in-waiting that has a long-term affair with the King, and has several children with him!. It's interesting, because the main character is really torn between her inherent morals, religion, and her lover!. I recommend it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm reading "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn"!. It's really well written so far (which isn't far at all)
I'm also reading "Life of Pi" by Yann Martell!. It's about a multi-religious Indian boy!. When he and his family are moving to Canada, the boat sinks and Piscine who is called Pi, is left alone on a life boat with some zoo animals that were being shipped over to Canada with them!.
Eventually, it's just him and a Bengal tiger!.
Alone!.
On a lifeboat!.
The question is- how does he make it out alive to tell the story!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm so excited! Christmas break has begun, therefore I have time to read again! I'm probably going to resume re-reading Harry Potter, and I've been wanting to read Charles Dickens novels for a while!. I also really want to read Les Miserables because my school is putting on the play, and I want to read the book before I see the play!. Hopefully I'll get a bunch of new books for Christmas too :)Www@QuestionHome@Com
