    It only took me a year to sign up - but I'm "in" now and hope to read a book! Do you still use this site?

    This site is really hard to use! It took me 5 minutes to figure out how to post what I'm currently reading and I'm still not sure I put it in right!

    I just finished The Countess and the King, by Susan Holloway Scott. A book recommended by a librarian at the Champaign Public Library. I thought it was great. We may want to try her other books to get our fill of historical fiction.

    It ranked right up there with Devil in the White City.

    Thanks, Jeannette, I did! Not at all what I thought it was going to be like, but enjoyable just the same.

    I heard about it on NPR recently but had to leave the program early and get back to work. It caught my interest tho. I think I'll try it. Thanks! Frances

    Hi Jeannette! Have you read "Twelve Breaths a Minute"? If so, how good was it? Thanks!

    I am in my snorkel gear in the Galapagos Islands. Not your typical website picture - thought it would be fun.

    Hi Jeannette,
    I have not read White Queen. I have a stack of books going but if you want to bring it to the Oct. book club meeting that would be great.

    I'm about a third of the way through - and really enjoying it. Thank heavens for Audible - except that with all the packing I'm going through books like mad.

    Thanks, Jeannette-- I hope to remember to visit this site (much) more regularly! I've just got to get into the habit. ;)

    Absolutely am loving it. Nothing like a good STORY . . not always easy to find. Plus put off reading it for a long time as I didn't think it 'sounded good.' Silly me!

    In the end and overall, I did enjoy it very much. But, because I had a hectic week when I started it, I found I needed to interrupt the book and read a fast paced Patterson book. I went back to it after 2-3 days and could really get into it then. I don't think I've ever done that before.
