I live in Northern CA, am a web designer and Social Media marketer. I have 2 kids, and happily married.

I love books - all sorts of books, but don't have a lot of time to read. So I download many to my ipod, and usually have something in paper (or on my Kindle) going at the same time. My hobbies include glass blowing, boating and... more »

    Hey There,
    Sorry I've been out of touch. I had surgery in November for Thyroid Cancer. I'm good now and reading again. I have many books lined up. Hope your holidays were fun! Happy New Year!

    Thanks also for the "warning" on Sail - that hasn't been released (in paperback at least) here yet, so I've yet to read it, but I will approach with caution!

    Interestingly, I did enjoy Step On a Crack, which came out here just before The Quickie. It seems there are more misses than hits nowadays!

    Thanks for the notes and request.

    Definitely agree about Patterson and his co-authors. I liked Honeymoon too!

    The Unquiet was a bit up and down for me, you can see my brief review on my shelf.

    Hi Maureen! I just wanted to see if you ever read/ordered my book? It's getting really good reviews on Amazon, so I'm excited! (A couple are even posted on Shelfari I think.) Here's the link in case you want to check it out again--

    Thanks! And btw a wqomen's book club in Oakland has chosen my book for its next read, and the meeting is on Tuesday, July 15. Let me know if you want me to send you the Evite the organizer sent me-- there are like 100 people on there, so it looks like a pretty open club. Maybe a good chance for you to meet some neighbor book lovers!

    Bye!

    Hey There,

    I've started another book Body Surfing by Anita Shreve, it's pretty good. I have My Sister's Keeper, I think I'll read it next.
    What are you reading?

    Hello birdsallhead!
    Please accept my gesture of friendship. =)

    I have spent some time reviewing your bookshelf and I am sending you this message because you seem to have very similar taste to mine and I believe this may seriously interest you. I hope it does.

    2060: THE NEWTON PROPHECIES is a lightening-fast thriller, following Harvard Divinity professor and bestselling author, Michael DiBianco across three countries in a life-and-death struggle to thwart a plot to destroy Christianity, only to discover a secret about his past that will ultimately spawn the apocalypse.

    Would you be interested in joining a group reading/review of the above mentioned novel?

    So far we have over 10 people excited to start this event, but I know we can get a lot more and there is still time to join. This should prove to be really fun.
    J. Kaye, the administrator of the Suspense & Thriller group has just asked me if I would lead the event. She tells me it will be the first time an author has ever lead their own advance reading group. She thinks it will prove to be really interesting. I agree. This could be very interesting indeed!

    Every book that is ordered for this event will be signed by the author and I am supplying these copies to members of this group at 50% off MSRP. I hope you will come join us. We'd love to have you! =)

    To learn more and to join please visit the Suspense & Thriller group: http://www.shelfari.com/groups/11778/about

    Thank you!
