I've been getting sucked into books recently and it's pretty fun. I finished reading The Count of Monte Cristo which was awesome. The depth of the characters made the story so much better, and actually the movie strays quite a bit from the original story line. I think partly because of the movie I was expecting there to be certain things to end happily that never did, and I was bummed about that, but it was still good (I actually finished reading this Dumas novel, which is better than my attempt at The Three Muskateers that was to flowery for me).
I also read The Icing on the Cake, which I must say that I really liked even though it was cheesy. It's written by an LDS author Elodia Strain. I'm quite a sucker for chick flicks, and this book reflects the too-good-to-be-true love story with lots of comedy in it. Different ends of the spectrum here, but I think I'd recommend both: one for action and the other for reading while you do girly things like a facial and eating cream puffs.
