My name is Patsy and I am 50 years old. I was married for 30 years to the most amazing man, Victor C. Nelson who passed away on December 18, 2008. He was more than my husband. He was my confidante, lover and best friend. He treated me like the Queen he always said that I was. He will forever be missed and forever in my heart. I thank everyone that send cards and words of sympathy and especially your prayers. Healing is taking one day at a time., so don't stop praying for me yet.
Okay, let's move on. Now to the books.
I read on the average of 4-5 books every week. I am proud to be called a bookaholic by family and friends. My nickname is ReadinDiva. I love it! Reading is such a major part of my day to day existence that I don't know what I would do if I didn't have a book to read. It is so relaxing and makes for a great an inexpensive get away. And it is better than Calgon to take me away. I appreciate all the authors that write and come up with storylines that keep me so entertained that I don't hardly watch tv anymore.
Even though I own over 2000 books, I joined this group to meet and talk with people that enjoy the same type of books that I do. If you check out my shelf you will see that I am a diehard romantic. I am flexible and willing to give new authors a read. All of the books on my shelf are books that I have read and own, so no need to solicit me to buy your books, I am now broke. :-)Or maybe it seems that way. I will however accept "FREE BOOKS" ;-). If not, eventually with time and money I will get to all the new authors too.
Some of my favorite authors (notice I said some) are, Adrianne Byrd (everything she writes is great) Dyanne Davis (great books) Brenda Jackson( Madaris, Steele, Westmorelands, need I say more?)Francis Ray (Taggarts, Falcons, Graysons, mm mmm good!) Melanie Schuster ( oh so fine Devereauxs and Cochranes) Beverly Jenkins , my historical romance fixer(Chase, Dixon, Jessi, ) , Rochelle Alers (brought us the Coles, Kirklands, Sterlings) Beverly Clark, Maureen Smith (Love romantic suspense), Cherry Adair(Men of T-Flac series),Marliss Melton, Lori Foster, Suzanne Brockmann (Troubleshooters, love this series).A.C. Arthur, Gwynne Forster, Rita Herron, Linda Howard, Sandra Brown,AlTonya Washington, Cheris Hodges, Brenda Novak, Kayla Perrin, Lisa Jackson, Meryl Sawyer, Karen Rose, Deatri King-Bey and oh too many more to name. Just Check out my shelf and you will see what I mean. LOL!
To all the authors that are on this site, Please know that YOU are appreciated and loved. As long as you keep on writing, I will be reading. Be blessed!
Don't forget to add me to your myspace. I am new at this blogging thing so if you get a chance read my blog and leave a comment. Thanks. I am ReadinDiva.
