    Yes this is her first, she's an English major who actually writes for a living; technical documentation. Presently she works for the fire department creating training material, real interesting stuff. I can't really talk about the novel, but I hope it gets published when it is done.

    The Host certainly falls into the Sci Fi category. Don't mix this up the monster story/movie out there by the same name though.

    Currently reading:
    1491 by Charles C. Mann
    How to Photograph Absolutely Everything by Tom Ang (a lot of this book is pretty basic, but interesting nonetheless)
    Understanding Exposure by Bryan Peterson (excellent)
    Two-Stroke Performance Tuning by A. Graham Bell
    Battles of the Bible - which has several authors, and reads like they are all atheists (kinda weird, considering the subject matter)

    Yes, I have actually finished some books recently, too.

    Can possibly lend you Twilight. My wife has read it 3 or 4 times, so unless she is planing to read it a 5th, it should be cool. Personally I didn't think too much of it, although the book is waaaaaay better than the movie. Really its just a big love story. Part way through the second one(New Moon) at the moment, and while it was really slow to get going (like nearly half way) the action has just started. Actually I'm listening to it cause I don't get(make) time to read paper books unless I am travelling. Listening works for me so I can do it on the bike.
