    I loved Ramona when I was a girl. They are the frist books my mom and sister could get me to read. Then I was hooked!

    Hi Maggie B - just logged in and saw your note :). Would you believe of all the classics I've read, I've not read Anne of GG or The Yearling. It is so nice to know there are still good books out there to read. I will have to check out Lynn Austin, as well.

    Hi Maggie

    orry I didn't reply sooner. I've just seen your note on Shelfari. Haven't logged in for ages. Been neglecting my reading over the last couple of months. DOing more cros stitch and completing my dreaded tax return!

    Do you speak German? (I wonder because of "Die Kraft der Liebe.") If so, what are the odds? I speak German, too, not fluently enough to read a novel.

    Hi! Maggie! great to hear from you! Work is slow at the moment so I'm taking a minute to check my emails. The Betsy-Tacy books are wonderful books. I recommend them highly to anyone of any age. I've been reading them since I was 10. There are 12 books in the BT series and then several others about their friends. There is a society in Minnesota where Betsy lived or really Maud Hart Lovelace the author. They have saved the houses where Betsy (Maud) and Tacy lived. Maud wrote the books about her childhood. It's my goal to go there sometime! I'm reading a book now called The Little Book. It is good but strange. Have you ever read Cheaper by the Dozen or Belles on Their Toes? I have a third book I bought at a sale about the same family. It's next on my list to read. It would be fun to read a book together. Any suggestions? Well back to work. It is rainy and dreary here today. bye for now, Ann

    You are welcome. I guess we both missed each others' notes! Glad you and your friend are hooked up!
    Our Thanksgiving was great. We spent it at home and had my mom and an uncle visit for dinner. All my children were home from work and school, so it was nice.
    Take care.

    I did read Swan House and liked it, but I LOVED the sequel! It almost had some mystery to it. Excellent book!!And I'm having a senior moment because I cna't think of the name.

    I love Kim's romances (she's one of the few romance authors I read) and I'd read Cindy's grocery list. :D

    I adored it! I thought it was very creative and different than the same old, same old. :)

    Maggie, i don't know how I missed your note. I apologize. When you both sent an friend invitation, you would have seen it on your "What's New" tab. And you click on the "accept" button. Since it has been awhile, check under the "What's New" tab. Look at the right side of the page where it says "Pending Requests". Your friend's invitation will still be there and you click on "accept". Hopefully by now, you have had some help. I apologize again.

    I think that putting "me" is Shelfari's way of avoiding confusion if someone has the same avatar as you do. I haven't run across any duplicates, but I guess you'll never know.
    There are a lot of good book reviews. My list of books I want to read just grows bigger and bigger as I read reviews!!

    Hi Maggie! I don't think it can be removed, you are the only one that sees the "me" on your avatar. Sometimes in the groups you will see "friend" on a member's avatar if you are friends with them...
