I'm reading nonfiction at the moment...how 'bout you?

  Right now I'm reading a book on vaccines (don't ask why...looooong story). I know...sounds boring, but it's fascinating to me. What topics are you ladies reading up on (maybe I'll be able to add to my list )?

  I'm reading 1-2-3 Magic, Your defiant child....get the picture? My son, I affectionately refer to as "the Tank", is taxing my resources. I've run out of ways to encourage him to do the right things!
  
  
  
  I think I read a book on vaccines a while back. I have 3 young kids and I am, I have discovered, a 'hover' parent. It's exhausting the amount of information out there that contradicts and supports your initial instincts. Trust your instincts.
  
  
  
  I'm drowning in 'chick lit' these days, as well. When you need a break, try Bright Lights, Big Ass. It's a series of essays that are easy to read and will remind you of your pre-mom days.

  unkeptmomof3 I love Jen Lancaster's books. I finished Brigh tLights, Big Ass and immedietly headed out to grab her first book, Bitter Is The New Black!
  
  She's got another one coming out soon!
  
  
  
  I'm still on my serial killer book kick, that's mostly what I read about anyway. As if reading about their stories will somehow enlighten me on how to avoid a serial killer, if ever in that situation.

  I just finished Devil In The White City which is about the Chicago World's Fair in the 1890's. It was fantastic and I'd recommend it to non-fiction and fiction readers alike.

  All of those books sound amazing!
  
  
  
  Unkeptmomof3, I highly recommend Taking Power Struggle out of Parenting by Sharon Strand Ellison. It is a great tool for communicating with your kids. My husband and I listened to it on cd. How was 1-2-3 Magic?
