If you can find Where the Heart Is- one of Oprah's book club books, I think you would like it. It's a very "us" kind of book- you'll see when you read it. I just loved Novalee Nation. A lot. I think you will too.

Tried to read some Choclate Frog mystery book someone gave me - blech. Not going to finish it. Not worthy. I didn't like What Looks Like Crazy either. Nope. I do recommend The Book of Saints- by Nino Ricci, and The Wreck of the Medusa- the story behind the painting. Actually your spousal unit might like The Wreck of the Medusa- it has overtones of Batavia's Graveyard, but it's shorter.

I know I've forgotten to tell you about a book, but I can't remember which book.

Oh, I read a lovely book:

amazon.com

But I gave it, and the Ngaio Marsh book Death of a Fool to a friend who really needed some good airplane reading.

amazon.com

I really enjoyed the detail stuff on old English dancing. I don't know what poor Mary Crawford had against it- I thought it was one of Marsh's best- since it had some detail in it, and it wasn't simply another mystery with nothing to learn about anything else- possibly that is why that one Amazon reader didn't like it.

Am deep into the Eyre Affair right now- love it, of course- so will you:
