I see you are new around here, you might enjoy Better than Starbuckshttp://www.shelfari.com/groups/23648/aboutBetter than Starbucks is one of the fastest growing literary/social groups on Shelfari, with good reason. the membership (not so much me, the founder) is literate and diverse, and by and large very intelligent. The name of the group comes from an argument that led to the founding.You can check out the following thread to understand a bit the naming:http://www.shelfari.com/groups/23648/discussions/37330/Ok-Starbucks-started-it-but-really-folks-
Dear Tami: My daughter is heading into middle school in a few weeks. (They grow up too fast). I wonder if I could add another book to your shelf. It's mine. After many years of rejection slips I finally found a publisher brave enough to take a chance. The novel is called HUNTING THE KING. The main character is a charismatic young woman named Molly O'Dwyer. Molly was five years old when she witnessed her mother's death in a fire. She never knew her father. After her mother's death, she was raised on the campus of a Jesuit college in Boston. Now an archaeologist, she is recruited to participate on a dig in war torn Iraq. As a scientist she is compelled to know who or what is buried under the sands of ancient Babylon. As a loyal Catholic, she is scared that what she finds may have devastating consequences for her faith. There is an awesome YouTube book trailer well worth watching to give you an idea of the power of the book. If you get the chance, I hope you'll take the time to watch it and let me know your feelings. Thanks. Peter
Welcome!!
