I live in Ellsinore, Mo. and am a proud father and husband. I love to read but I guess everybody on here does. I'd pretty much rather read than anything else in my leisure time. I love to make new friends on here and peruse their shelves. Generally readers are more interesting people than non-readers I think. If you would like to make a new... more »

    Sure I don't see why all the books we read shouldn't be put on the group shelf. To me that is part of the fun, and we'll probably be spurred to talk more about each other's reading choices, what we thought about a certain book, etc.

    Mike,

    It was a great read. Grisham really had some great stories!

    Just finished it. Thanks! I really enjoyed it. Seemed like he wasn't trying to be as dramatic as possible, but just telling a story like it happened, which I appreciate. I also enjoyed the book due to its unique perspective from the eyes of a young boy during the 50s from the south. On that level, I think Grisham did a pretty remarkable job.

    I promise you won't be disappointed in Glenn Beck's book -- he really IS the man! If you think about it, and you read it, let me know how you liked it :-)

    Hey Mike, thanks for your comment. A long time ago, I read a few Grisham novels, then ended up moving on to other books (and getting busy, too!). I appreciate your comment on A Painted House, as it motivated me to put it on my "to read" list. God bless and happy reading!

    Not reading anything??? WHAT?

    You must have other hobbies taking up your time. I can't sleep at night unless I read a few chapters first.

    Hey Mike...

    I heard the book "The Prize Winner" was a good one. I plan on renting the movie after I read the book. I wish they still had contests like they did then... I would have liked to try my hand at a few.

    Cheerio,
    Erin

    Actually that plague book was interesting (I just finished) if a little scattered. But part of the fun for me was seeing what the author would jump to next. Hope you are well! NH
