I've read about 10 more books since my last list but 2 are sticking out-
Moab is my Washpot by Stephen Fry- hilarious, charming, sad and poignant in light of his depression.
from Baghdad with love- heart rendering story of a puppy in worn torn Baghdad and the soldier/s who fell in love with it.

I finished the twilight series and LOVED it and am eagerly anticipating the 4th book! Another book that was excellent! The King's Brat A wonderful period love story.....I'm a sucker for love stories....(needless to say I'm a pathetic hopeless romantic that still believes dreams come true...although I have yet to have that happen).

i'm a total memoir junkie.....but not just the tragic ones , funny ones, and ones about overcoming adversity...You can learn a lot from them, the human spirit is a beautifully moving thing.
