Hey, of course I'd like you to vote me (Julie), but even if you don't check out the list of authors. Writers Got Talent: Vote For Your Favorite Author

I never get book hangovers. I read a few different kinds at once so it keeps a good mix.

Got another Jack Higgins book: Edge of Danger...okay so far. I think it's earlier than the one I read before.

Try Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn series. It is pretty long but worth it. Also, amazon had some good deals on it a while back.

Harry Potter and Narnia are both good. Stuart Hill's The Cry of the Icemark is a decent fantasy book. The protagonist is a princess who needs to forge alliances to save her people. Vivian Vande Veld has some neat YA stuff. You may want to look her up. One I remember being very good was...

School reading and pleasure reading are often different :-) Same goes for writing. Welcome. What nonfiction books are you reading currently.

How long have you done cycling? What got you into it?

Hello. Tell us a bit about yourself and your reading interests...that will make recommendations all the more on point.

Hello, welcome. Ah, joining at the beginning of a new year....lovely timing.

Got The Killing Ground by Jack Higgins. I haven't ever read anything by him, but so far, I like it. Revan by Drew Karpyshan Revolution by Jennifer Donnelley.

Thanks. Ha, yeah, I heard the audiotapes of the books...so I don't think it helped that every time I heard Peeta, I thought Pita bread :-P

Okay, I sent you 3 stories to choose from with brief descriptions of each. They're different styles. I gave you a word count on them so you could better judge which style you'd prefer. Read 1, all, or just parts, I value your opinion. You can put comments in a word doc directly or a separate...

I own an old school kindle, but I haven't really used it. I like the feel of an actual book.

First version sounds like they were mad at the plain and refused to speak to it :-P

That is so hard to predict. I'd say 2-3 dozen ish counting only books I read and double that if you count CD books. Summer I get to read a lot and school terms I get to read a little

:stars5: Scoundrels by Timothy Zahn. I got to read it early b/c of the amazon vine program. It might not have been a solid 5 but certainly a 4.5 that could be rounded up. I give the author a lot of credit for being able to write an entertaining story set within certain boundaries of the star...

I think I'd be a snail on the speed reading highway.

Welcome back. I come and go with the tides of available time, as I'm sure a lot of people do here...so feel right at home doing so.
