About meSurely you've seen me? The woman vacuuming with book in hand? You know, the one who arrives early for appointments so she can read in the waiting room. Who hangs out at the bookstore and forces herself to drink a peppermint Italian soda (with whipped cream)so she can 'browse' while she drinks? Who stuffs at least two books and two magazines in her carry-on and then hangs out at the airport book kiosk? That's me!
About my librarySome of the books that I have reviewed here at LT were given to me by the Amazon Vine Program; the books were free but the reviews are my honest, and, all too often snarky, opinion.
The books in my LibraryThing library are all books that I read - some are much better than others.
***** is outstanding.
**** is good enough to re-read.
*** means that I finished it and enjoyed it.
** is thank goodness that's over.
* is omg, I spent $ on that?

Saw you post on the romance new members. Welcome. I see we have 18 books in common, so far, let me suggest Kathleen Dante, Jaci Burton and Stephanie Laurens.

Do not worry--I often have what I call "brain freeze" moments. Of course, I can attribute it to advancing age! And if I were to attempt Yoga, I am sure it would induce some sort of mental deficiency.
Thanks for the offer to photocopy. Your first post gave me the idea to see if I can get the "Quebec to New Orleans" book through interlibrary loan at the Chicago Public Library, so I will try that. It sounds like an interesting history, so I would like to check out the entire book. Then, if I like it, I can buy it.

Saw your post in the Dante thread in Club Read, came to your profile, saw the book "From Quebec to New Orleans" and had to comment. My mother's side of the family was French Canadian, ultimately settling in the Kankakee, Illinois area. Is that area covered in the book? You rated it highly--what is it that you liked? I see that I can get used copies for around $25 to $30, but sure would not want to spend that kind of money if I don't think I will like it.
Thanks!

I have only read a few of her books, they're really difficult to find around here! Obviously new bookstores won't have them, but the library and thrift shops usually don't, either. And used bookstores? No way!
I've managed to get quite a few through the Internet, thankfully, so I'm hoping to go on a FPK-blitz this summer when I'm not in school! Her books are so much fun :)

I bought all Cadell books (as are available or reasonably priced) in hardcover. Some of her's are above $200!
She is like eating "comfort food"....when I get sick of so-so books I grab one of her's.
I have re-read her books multi times.
Glad to meet another Cadell fan...
