About my libraryThese are books I own. I think I've almost finished entering them all. Of course, I plan on continually expanding my library.
I don't keep an online wishlist because the only way I can keep mine to a reasonable size is by losing my list every few years! :)

(And Halloween included visits from out-of-town family, so that was good. Hope yours was too.)

I nearly feel to the floor when I looked up one of your recently added
books - May Sinclair! Amazon has it new for $100.000!
My cart just took a major topple.

You bet your sweet bippy I've got one of those lists. Who is the author?
posted by nannybebette at 12:16 am (EST) on Sep 9, 2009
Do you have a title preference for a group read? "The Book of the People" or "The Thirteenth Tale"? Just so Mark can whittle it down to one.
And on our last group read we had people still joining half way through, so no sweat. In fact one lady just now finished. We are very low pressure and use a fresh thread for each scheduled part so there are no spoilers for those who haven't made it that far yet.
Thank you soooo much for getting back with me.
love,

Mark and I have been discussing the possibility of another group read in November and want your input. We have narrowed it down to two books at this point. "The People of the Book" by Geraldine Brooks and "The Thirteenth Tale" by Diane Setterfield. So chat it up with friends or us and let us know if you are up for it and what you think. Probably the same plan as with "Pillars of the Earth" which seemed to work out perfectly for almost all of us.
Think it over and give one of us a shout.
hugs and looking forward to hearing from you,

Thank you so much for your kind words regarding the loss of our cat Moose.
We only had him for three years, but they so quickly become a part of one's family and he did bring us a great deal of joy in the time we had him.
I appreciate you coming by very much and that you have me on your heart for that moment.
I will see you on the threads,
hugs,
