A graduate of UF that with hindsight should have gone into Library Science but ended up a bean counter. But that is the beauty of books. They transport, transfix, and transfigure you.

I have met Stephan King and Janet Evanovich.

    Barbara, I love Stephen King but did not like Janet Evanovich book "To the Nines". Do you think I should read a different book of hers before I decide on her writing?

    I'm supposed to be reading Bridge of Sighs for an AOL group, but I'm about millionth on the reserve list at the library. I hope to read it some day...

    Hi, Barbara--

    I have read some of Robin Hobb's earlier works, but nothing recently. I hope you find my books at your library. If not, they may be able to obtain them using Inter-Library Loan, 'cause I know the Alachua County Library and some other libraries around the country have copies.

    Do write back after you read them. It's always nice to hear from a fellow Floridian and Gator, and I have fond memories of SW Florida.

    Richard Powell, Randy White & Bob Morris are writers I associate immediately with the SW FL & FM area. Do you read them.
    Wondering if you liked AW's Campbell soup can pop art & if the thumbnail is from a factory tour?
    thanks for looking at the group ~

    Love, DeAnne
