About meI've been an avid reader since I can remember. My taste in books is fairly eclectic. I do have a soft spot for magical realism. Lately, due to a lack of time, I've been reading lighter stuff but I hope to be able to go back and tackle all the classics at some point in the near future. Currently I work in corporate America as a writer/editor.

About my libraryI love the public library so I don't own many of the books I have listed. Going through other people's catalogs has made my "want to read" list long enough to keep me busy for a good while.

Noticed that you liked The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). I thought you might like my novel since it's been compared to that novel by a number of reviewers. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

I like magical realism too! Have you read Garden Spells by Sara Addison Allen. Its new, still in hardback, but good. Also Graham Joyce's Dark Sister is good too.
Happy Reading,
Amy
