Welcome! I found the site recently as well--feels like coming home doesn't it? Only problem is it is so addictive I read less. Thank goodness for the trolley where I can't be 'connected' to LT, and I can read an actual book.

I just bought You Suck at a library sale based on all the recommendations here. Did you enjoy it?

Hi Nancye!

Thanks for the welcome! It does feel like home! It did prevent me from reading the end of the last book for days - like only 20 pages left. I kept staring at the book while I was playing around with this site - knowing I need to complete the book! But I became addicted to this site!

I did enjoy You Suck....it was corny, and once in a while you need to sit back and laugh!

I didn't know there was a third book of Alcott's thrillers. What stories are in it?
