Tell us what you're currently reading and if you like a bit about it. Magazines are accepted :P
I'm currently reading like 3 - 5 books...typical of me
1) "Water for Elephants" - Sarah Gruen - When Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned and suddenly adrift, jumps onto a passing train, he enters a world of freaks, swindlers and misfits in a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression.A veterinary student who almost earned his degree, Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie. It is there that Jacob meets Marlena, the beautiful equestrienne who is married to August, a charismatic but violently unpredictable animal trainer. Jacob also meets Rosie, an elephant who seems unmanageable until he discovers an unusual way to reach her. (its the book I'm reading for my book club)
2) "Turn around and Run Like Hell" - Joseph Cummings - Reveals stories of deceptions, tactics, and cunning generals succeeding against all odds. This work features brilliant strategists at their creative best in battle tactics that unfold in often odd-ball and always unorthodox narratives. It helps us learn how to exploit an enemy's weak spots and how to fashion weapons out of everything
3) "Kissing Sin" - Kerri Arthur -From Melbourne's gleaming skyscrapers to its edgy nightclubs, Riley Jenson's world is raging with danger and desire. A drop-dead-gorgeous werewolf - with a touch of vampire coursing through her veins - Riley works for an organization created to police the supernatural races. But when she wakes up naked and bruised in a deserted alley, she knows only that she must run for her life. Within moments Riley collides with steely, seductive, Kade, who is fighting a life-and-death battle of his ownand that's when things get really interesting (2nd book in the Riley Jensen series - paranormal romance)
