I'll probably embarrass myself to strangers, gushing, "I know her!"<BR/><BR/>So if you're at all like me you have your books separated into 3 piles, ones to read just for fun and entertainment, ones that will hone your craft and ones to make you think. In the last category, I'm reading "The Shack" by Wm. Paul Young. I was unaware of it until about a month ago. And, yes, it is making me think.Nannettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05262551629414427253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3779923555333795934.post-73444926205345022842009-01-13T08:48:00.000-06:002009-01-13T08:48:00.000-06:00Hi Lindsay, thanks so much for stopping by my site...Hi Lindsay, thanks so much for stopping by my site.

Flowers from the Storm by Laura Kinsake one of the great love stories of all time. <BR/><BR/>Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by Brecht - one of the great Southern novels of all time.<BR/><BR/>Colleen Gleason's Regency vampire series - the first novel The Rest Falls Away. Amazing series.<BR/><BR/>Mary Janice Davidson's Undead series. I mean how many books start with the line - The day I died started out bad and got worse. (from Undead and Unwed)<BR/><BR/>And the Preston Douglas / Lincoln Child Pendargast series beginning with RELIC.

It's Beverly Barton's trilogy, The Fifth Victim, The Last to Die and As Good as Dead. Loved 'em! Also, Nora Roberts newest trilogy, Blood Brothers, The Hollow and The Pagan Stone.

So I will recommend a book I read over the summer by Cassandra King-The Same Sweet Girls. It's about a group of sorority sisters who meet twice a year as time passes by. It's got three different perspectives, the prerequisite health/scary disease stuff, and colorful characters. Of course it is a southern author and set in the south. I love it.<BR/><BR/>Another book I loved is Charms for th Easy Life... I reread that one a lot. It takes me away and is filled with amazing characters set in a time I love before,during and through WW2... I love the female characters in it.<BR/><BR/>Congrats again and looking forward to reading ALL your books (when I have time -- LOL -- tho' not published, always writing)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05383099148014297450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3779923555333795934.post-1017396374659853682009-01-07T13:06:00.000-06:002009-01-07T13:06:00.000-06:00The movie is fabo.
