Hello! My biggest hobby (or should I say obsession) is reading and reviewing books. I read pretty much everything; my quickly growing collections includes anything from historical biographies to popular novels to how-to books.

You can see some of my reviews on www.luxuryreading.com. Feel free to add me as a friend!

    Hi Vera...I see we have quite a few books in common. I'm an avid reader also, and the more the merrier. Enjoying your shelf and finding several to add to my overflowing bookshelf. Have a blessed day!

    "Madman in the Mirror" is a story about a man - Henry Johnson - who is raised by a psychopath and forced to watch - even as a baby - his father murder people on a regular basis. He is also abused and brainwashed, turning him into a sociopath. Henry stalks and murders people efficiently - he tells himself that he may be a killer, but he doesn't want people to suffer. He is haunted by hallucinations, including a specter in his mirror that talks to him.

    "MADMAN IN THE MIRROR is on a class by itself." Richard S. Friedman

    Murder, romance and the paranormal. It is sprinkled with humor. Also contains ghosts, a dog that’s adopted by Henry and a crazy hooded merganser duck. And a baby as his arch enemy.

    “It held me spellbound and at attention all through the story.” “Fascinating peek in the mind of a serial killer.” “A most imaginative and brilliant book.”

    I'm new at this. I joined Shelfari quite a while ago to put the bookshelf on my blog. I didn't even add my picture at the time. I just now did that. I like to read but not as much as my husband and daughter. They are both real readaholics.
