Georgia, give him a hug from the boomers.

I'd love to see him and tell him to stop doubting his past. For gosh sakes, it's his history that shaped him into the person he is today, and he's one awesome person! His writing is so touching. You can tell how much love he has in him by the way he captures the people he writes about.

Hey queen, he's still single, isn't he? Hmmm....Matchmaker, matchmaker... [Razz] [Eek!]

Dianne, no I didn't notice but its right here on my desk and now that I know you, I'll read it over again to see where. I am reading a book my dinner guest brought for me today called:
Susanne's Diary for Nicholasit's by James Patterson a best selling Author many times over. The title is not impressive but its a love story you can't put down.... [Smile]

I'm reading Macbeth right now and Business law but that's more for school than for fun. But it actually is fun.

I'm reading "The Prince of Tides" by Pat Conroy. Much deeper and more dark than the movie.

Baldacci is also one of my favorites. Ann Rule with her true-life crimes, and Ann Rice with the vampires. Anita Shreve too.

Read a lot of biographies, particularly political or business. Am trying to collect a biography on each of the Presidents and the First Ladies.

I like to read the entire collection of an author at one time. You can get the rythm (how do you spell that word??) of their writing and many seem to have reoccurring characters. My next author is Anne Tyler.

Anything by Alexandra Stoddard -Things I Want My Daughters to Know-, Jan Karon, -the Mitford series-, or Jeanine McMullen who wrote Wind in the Ash Trees and My Small Country Living.

Every year I re-read at least one of each woman's books. They are simply delightful and charming. I read them and believe all is right with the world.

I'm savouring the collected short stories of Carol Shields. Highly recommended.
