[Jacquie]

Hi I'm Jacquie,

I'm in a number of book clubs -- I like the variety -- and am currently a co-host of the Toronto chapter for the Girly Book Club. I am new to the Oprah book club but over the last couple years have read a couple of her picks and look forward to being part of the group, to the great reads and just as importantly the exchanges within this forum.

I read mostly fiction (not romance) and love the occasional biography. I read most of my books but due to a really long commute have in the last 6 years also started listening to many of my books. For Love Warriors -- I have downloaded the audio-book version as I 'feel' I know the author better when they read/tell their story, in their own voice to me... We all have our quirks and that is mine! lol
