*giggle* Thanks for the greeting. I am so in awe of authors. The ability to bring a thought in your head to life on the page is an ability I deeply covet. Now, I have to be honest - I haven't read your books yet. But you are on my radar and my Wishlist, so we'll have some specifics to talk about soon.

In the meantime, we share several of my favorite books, and I see you are reading about the library book thief. How is that book? I remember the case when he was captured and I was fascinated. Such obsession with the written word is at least a little understandable to me. Not that I have any larceny in my heart! When I was a librarian, I did have to resist the urge to weed out some of my favorite books so that I could "rescue" them. Now I focus on finding those same titles and legitimately buying them. (Not nearly so much fun.)

Well, I did warn you I was blabby. Mary Lou
