Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. ~ Charles W. Eliot

My favorite places are bookstores and libraries . . . to be surrounded by books provides a special comfort to my soul. I will read just about anything, unless it puts me to...more »

    Oh, I am so glad to do it, Diana!!! Yes, I do have your address. I may not get them sent until after next week though because we're going away Thurs. & I have a million things to do before then, but I've got the books put aside & labeled.

    I am doing well, thanks!!

    Hey Diana, I'm doing a happy dance because a lovely package arrived yesterday! Thank you so much for these Nora books. I've become a big fan of hers & enjoy relaxing w/ her stories.

    I went to your wishlist & noticed several books I have...but I can't find them! I think I loaned them to a friend, Tracy (from BF2). I was wondering though if you were interested in reading other books by those authors. From Cassandra King (Did you know she's married to Pat Conroy?) Making Waves & The Sunday Wife; from Elizabeth Berg: Open House & Range of Motion. I would love to send them to you since I probably won't ever reread them.

    Hope you're having a great weekend! And thanks so much again!!

    More exciting news at the Suspense & Thrillers Group…as you might already know that Keith Katsikas, author of “2060: The Newton Prophecies” will be leading a discussion on his book. We don’t have a date set up yet, but will in a couple of weeks.

    In the meantime, Amanda Stevens, author of THE DOLLMAKER, has also agreed to lead the discussion for May’s Group Read, which is THE DOLLMAKER. I’m really excited as this is something new and might become a new trend with our group discussions. If you’ve already read the book, come join us. If not, see if you can grab a copy. There’s still time as the discussion won’t begin until the first week of May.

    Great! I'm so glad you will join the "Grief, Bereavement and Afterlife" group. If you can ever add any of the books to the group shelf that you have read on these subjects, they would be great to know about. The loss of a brother must have been very tough. I hated having to have my other children go through that when their sister died. Karin C.
