Lynns Book Challenge

[Karol]

Lynn, wow - that looks like a very good plan! I'll bet I would love to browse the shelves at your home. . .

[Karol]

Wow, that's fascinating. I was a music major for the first two years in college (piano performance major), so I've got quite a lot of music books, too. And those National Geographic magazines are quite the collection! Again - wow!

Lynn, you've really gotten me interested in the Queensland Chronicles. Thanks for sharing the info!

[Karol]

Must be that spring is in the area - I'm in the mood for a good shopping spree, too!

Unfortunately, I've not enjoyed some of her more recent novels, but Penelope Stokes is certainly a talented author nonetheless. (One, Delta Belles, bordered on trashy as one young woman's recreational sexual encounter was described in great detail. I was disgusted and quit reading.)

[Karol]

My goodness, Lynn - if I ever need a suggestion on what to read, yours is a good thread to turn to. THanks for the great summaries!

That's great, Lynn. It really is amazing when we "journal" what we've read. Not just how many books, I find, but how preferences develop and change over time.
