Thanks for stopping by! I am just now getting finding out about Sue Grafton (I know.. I know.. LOL) and plan to dive into her alphabet series in 2012. Carrie Fisher books seems interesting as well, I have always been curious of the lives of celebrity kids.
You have an excellent variety of books. Have a great reading week!

Thanks, Book Snob Wannabe…I think my favorite of Carrie’s books was Postcards from the Edge…unless this new one turns out to be even better!
I loved all of the alphabet series that I’ve read, which I think is most of them.

Yes, I like the look of that one, too. And I, too, want to read Left Neglected, Diane…I have had it on Sparky for quite awhile; I guess I got distracted by review books and glossy book covers. (A downside to Kindle…the books aren’t staring at us!).
Thanks for stopping by.

I like Carrie Fisher’s books. If it weren’t for the audio books we listened to while stuck in holiday traffic, I wouldn’t have gotten much read this week. Please come see what we’ve read.
