Ok....so work and school kicked back into gear so my reading time is really limited :-( Just bought Half of a Yellow Sun by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. Been searching for this book for ages here and finally found it. Holiday tmrw so I'm definitely gonna get in some reading time.
Adichie is AMAZING. Purple Hibiscus is also a good read. I recently picked up her last one...a collection of short stories that I have yet to start but you definitely won't regret Yellow Sun..it's definitely one of those I have to read again

And yes Twilight is addictive. I actually didn't expect to enjoy them because I'd put up a mental block to the teen-lit kinda books BUT they were more than I expected. Read the entire series in a week...and if you've seen the size of those books that's no easy feat lol

Second on Adichie...I love her writing. Finished the book of short stories in 4 days! back in school now, so reading for enjoyment is at a minimum right now. Will pick back up around the holidays.

@ Jinjer...how you girl?
