toripanda77

A booklover at heart, I have been reading longer than my memory will go back. I don't even remember learning to read, although my mother recounts that I started around 2. I find books a diversion from reality, and a way to learn how to live on earth. I am fascinated by dark humor, and characters that are somewhat relatable to my current reality.... more »

    Hi Tori..? (I'm guessing that's your name from toripanda77? I just signed up for Shelfari today to try to get the word out about my novel (I just published it last week!), and you came up as a good match for me b/c you are in the "chick lit" group-- and also b/c I'm guessing you were born in 1977? My book (“Perfect on Paper”) is a funny read about a 30-year-old single woman in San Francisco whose life is hardly perfect. Anyhow, I thought I'd send you a note in case you want to check it out. I know it's a bit crazy to contact you directly about it since I don’t know you, but I figured why not? I have to start somewhere to get word-of-mouth going outside of my own friends, and it’s obvious you like to read!

    Thanks- and btw I was born in Minneapolis! :)

    I see that you have FREAKONOMICS on your TBR list. It's pretty interesting, and I think you'll like it. I'm currently reading THE TIPPING POINT by Malcolm Gladwell, which is similar in nature.
    RUNNING WITH SCISSORS will appeal to your taste for dark humor.
