What I Like
I LOVE to read!
(I LOVE to read)
Just a few of my favorite Authors. The lists here are not meant to be a definative bibliography, nor is it an acurrate representation of my personal library, but simply a show of what I have read, owned, or wish to read/own by the particular author. Kind of like a wish list. Maybe it will give somebody some gift ideas. (Ha ha!)
