Thanks for the great picks Sonja!! I'm sorry I didn't see your other comment earlier so I could have replied. But you did a wonderful job without it! I do have a couple of rereads on my shelf, thinking about moving on in the series, but it's been forever since I read the earlier books so a reread was in order.

I hope you like them and...HAPPY READING!
