    Hi! I really enjoyed my night at Boswell's too! The rest of the tour was fantastic, although it made for a crazy summer. Hope you had a great summer!

    Hello! I am the admin of The Book Club group. I am trying to get people to join the group and let people know I am starting a book reading group of "A New Earth" By Eckardt Tolle. It is a book from Oprah's book club and in addition to reading the book as a group and holding discussions, I have "journal" exercises and activities to go along with this book every week!

    Dear Tessa: I am an author from Massachusetts. My debut novel HUNTING THE KING was published in April. If you enjoy reading a good thriller like DA VINCI CODE, you may enjoy HUNTING, too. HUNTING THE KING is a fast-paced page-turner that follows archaeologist Molly O’Dwyer into war torn Iraq in search of the remains of Jesus. ForeWord Magazine says: “Fans of intellectual thrillers and historical fiction will find a worthy new voice in Clenott. His best invention may be Molly O’Dwyer, a genuinely likable heroine who more than holds her own in a man’s world. An ambitious scientist, she is also an observant Catholic whose heart and mind don’t always agree. Given such an auspicious start, the sequel can’t come too soon.” Molly O’Dwyer is an in-your-face woman with a mysterious background who’s about to go on the adventure of a lifetime.

    To get a good sense of how powerful the book is, check out the heart-pounding book trailer on YouTube or on my web site at www.peterclenott.com. It is like watching a preview for an exciting movie. The novel is equally exciting.

    You can find it on Amazon.com, Borders, Barnes & Noble. I hope you’ll take a look. And let me know what you think.

    Thanks. Peter.

    This is my first book as myself, Sherrill Bodine, instead of Lynn Leslie for Harlequin or Leslie Lynn for Fawcett. Cosmopolitan Magazine chose TALK OF THE TOWN as their "Red Hot Read" in their February edition ( pages 210 & 211) -- how much fun is that!!!!

    hi

    thanks for the information. I don't really like books about crimes and murder.

    I enjoy reading about nations and cultures, so thanks again for giving me an idea about "Rain of Gold."

    Reading is a dominant part of my daily life, so I have many favourite books. I love the twilight series, The secret life of bees, I used to like the Harry Potter series, but not as much now.

    I can't imagine what it must be like to live in such cold weather. I have never been in a place in which the temperature is less than 15 C, although I'm from Jordan and its really cold there in winter, but I never went there in winter holidays. We spend the summer there.

    Thank you again fot the information and I'll try out "To kill a mocking bird" and "Rain of Gold". If you woud to try out "The Secret Life of Bees" it will be great, and its not about bees.

    Bye...
