About meI'm a big supporter of independent bookstores and saving what's left of the environment.

About my libraryI have horrible reading habits. I love nothing more than starting a new book, which usually means abandoning the six or seven others I was already reading. Therefore, I don't finish books with any sort of regularity. Also, I read really slowly. My advisor in college told me that meant I enjoyed the words--that all English majors were slow readers. I think he was just being nice, but I loved him for it anyway.

The books listed in my library are ones that I actually finished at some point or that I'm currently reading.

Noticed you liked As I Lay Dying, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also southern and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter)in case you'd like to read more about the novel before you commit:
