About meI'm 18, female, live in the states. Consequently there is not much to say about education/career/etc. And for the life of me I cannot figure out what I have interesting about myself to put here.

About my libraryWell, I recently took the plunge and went for the paid account; I'm attempting to catalog all my books, but I own too many for my shelves and I've picked up rather a few used that are more arduous to enter. I've got a 50 Book Challenge thread up, where you can find a bit more about what I'm currently looking for in terms of reading material, and what I end up actually reading.

Hi,

Just a quick note to let you know that my new novel, Dirty Little Angels, is now available. Thought you might be interested since you're from NOLA. I was born and raised in New Orleans, and the novel is actually set there. Here's a summary in case you're interested:

Set in the slums of New Orleans, among clusters of crack houses and abandoned buildings, Dirty Little Angels is the story of sixteen year old Hailey Trosclair. When the Trosclair family suffers a string of financial hardships and a miscarriage, Hailey finds herself looking to God to save her family. When her prayers go unanswered, Hailey puts her faith in Moses Watkins, a failed preacher and ex-con. Fascinated by Moses's lopsided view of religion, Hailey, and her brother Cyrus, begin spending time down at an abandoned bank that Moses plans to convert into a drive-through church. Gradually, though, Moses's twisted religious beliefs become increasingly more violent, and Hailey and Cyrus soon find themselves trapped in a world of danger and fear from which there may be no escape.

If you'd like to read the first chapter, you can read it here:

Take care,

Chris
Thanks for finding my library interesting! Also I see you found Crescent City Connection. I just posted a new thread there asking if anyone had Halloween / All Saints / Dia de los Muertos plans. (I am planning to be in NO around that time myself to see friends there.)

So you are at least tri-lingual? (judging from your recently added books in Italian and Spanish)

I read Spanish and French fairly fluently (i finished all 3 vols of Tolkiens Senor de los Anillos not too long ago).
