About my library So far, I've catalogued what I've actually got on my shelf here in Los Angeles, plus what I can remember about what I've got on my shelves back home in West Virginia, plus some favorite books I've borrowed from friends and libraries.

I was surprised that so much of it is nonfiction, and at what a large proportion is mystery series and plays...

Oh, I'm glad you liked it. I wasn't sure what you had and wanted to get David Sedaris but figured you had all his work. Next thing I could think of NPR was that. I listen to Ira Glass a lot and some of the Lake Wobegon but wasn't really sure what to get you. I'm glad it worked out.

Hi,

Thanks for the invitation. I have been interested to see some others in the group that are familiar with the Four Seasons bookstore in Shepherdstown.

Hi Matt,

While you did win a book as part of Early Reviewers, I’m sorry to tell you that we had to take you off the list :-( Random House cannot send it to the mailing address you provided. They won’t send books without having the full names of recipients, which unfortunately they didn’t have in your case.

But hang in there! You should definitely register for Random House’s next batch, which will be here before you know it. Just make sure the “Full Name” field is filled out; it won’t be used for any other purpose aside from mailing.

Thanks for your patience,
Cliff
