Book Alert

Looking for a good book?

 Here is a running list of books I've read and would recommend. This will not be a book review. "Aint got time for that...I'd rather be reading.... I recommend Amazon for that. I've trusted the reader reviews for just about every book I've purchased since I bought a couple that I hated. Life is too short to buy bad books. Most of the time the reader reviews have been a big help. I'm just going to give you the title and author.  I will also list the first book in a series and you can go from there. When I really like a book I usually try to read everything that author has written. I'll put an * by my favorite authors which means I've either read all of their books or have a few on my to read list.

These are not in any order but I'll try to group them in self explained categories.  I'll be adding books to this page as I remember more or read more so check in every week or so. When I Found You and Making Faces were my most recent and I couldn't put them down. Enjoy! And please share your favs with me either here or on FB or in person. Thanks for reading this :)))
