anyone read is longer books? Not the spy ones...
Pillars of the Earth
World Without End
Fall of Giants
I thought they were soooo good, I couldn't stop reading them. Fall of Giants is the first of a trilogy but I don't know how I will wait for the rest! _________________ Tana

I read Pillars of the Earth last year. Great book! Took me awhile to get into it, but so glad I stuck it out... _________________ Andrea

I haven't but will add to my ever growing list of books to read. _________________ My goal for the rest of 2011 is to get all photos that pertain to dd and her school year scrapped and keep up to date the rest of the year.

Yes! I'm just finishing Fall of Giants. I've read all 3 of those titles this year and loved them. I'm ready for some non Ken Follett books for a while, but will happily read more later. _________________ Deb

I started Pillars of the Earth on the flight to Hawaii last summer but my BFF (whom we met there) had a "better" beach read. Then I forgot about it. Hmm, wonder where it is? I need to pick it up again. _________________ Joy
