Even though I'm now living in one of the Queen's conquests instead of the UK proper, I'm keeping the blog name the same. Her Majesty is still on the money. That's all that matters.

I just finished Gifted Hands by Ben Carson, but it falls into the non-fiction/biography pile. Not to mention that I like the first few chapters and after that it got a bit repetitive. Now, I'm reading Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Baby. It's an awesome book and has changed my life. I just don't think it's up your alley at this moment in time...
Kristin, we always liked The No Cry Sleep Solution, though if First Daughter would ever be well long enough I'm leaning toward cry it out with her.
I have more recommendations. Mary Doria Russell's The Sparrow and Children of God. It's science fiction, but really it's just great fiction. You have to read both, though. The story doesn't really end until you get to the end of the second book. For something unusual, I liked Miyuki Miyabe's All She Was Worth. it's a Japanese mystery. Finally, Susan Hill's The Woman in Black. I haven't read it in ages, but enjoyed it. When I was in London just after high school I saw the play and it creeped me out (in a good way) more than any show I've ever seen live!
Thanks for all the recommendations, Jill! I can't wait to start them!
The No Cry Sleep Solution led to my crying. But, you are not the first to recommend it. Joe sleeps like a champ now, though. I'm VERY lucky and don't want to jinx it! I liked the loving feeling of the No Cry Sleep Solution, but in practice it degenerated into my feeding around the clock every 90 minutes or so. And, as I mentioned, losing it.
Yeah, Kristin, I'm come to the realization that it totally depends on the child. It worked like a charm for the first one, but hasn't been as useful for the second. She's getting there, though. Last night we were so warm and snuggly under our covers we let her cry for quite a while and eventually she went back to sleep. She seemed well rested and happy this morning, and we were, too (for the most part).
