Why don't ya tell me what's on your shelf and maybe I'll give you a ring....

(I have that awful song stuck in my head)

 

I don't have any books requested at the moment and I don't like it! What is the very best book on your shelf? It doesn't have to be H/F, I read bits of everything. Just tell me what you have that you thought was fabulous!

Come on, help me spend a credit!

Oh, Letty! You make me smile too!! Sweet Home Alabama!! That is the song you can count on being played any time there is a group of Southerners and beer, lol. And it never gets old, love it!  :-D

Vicki, I've read "Suite Francais". Loved it! If anyone here reads Holocaust literature, this is one of the better ones. Someone should snag it!

Misfit, you talked me out of Captive Queen. Too many books to be deliberately seeking out bad ones, lol. If no one here takes it, you should put it in the ARC thread in the Book Bazaar. ARC's go quick in that thread! I'm sure someone who doesn't read this forum would snatch it up. That is what you need...someone who hasn't read the discussion of this book here, lol. I check the ARC thread there pretty regularly and I've gotten some good ones from it.

Valli, Did you see on one of the recent posts in the BB Available ARCs that they have a copy of The Devil's Company by David Liss?

Valli, wise choice on your part. Really.
