time consuming endeavor.
Last week, my friend Pam died. She and I were two sides of a coin. She once sent me a sticker that said God knew our mothers couldn't handle us being sisters so he made us best friends. It was very true. I was closer to her than I am my own sister. I miss her dearly. One of the things I will miss most is sharing books. In Pam's obituary they put this quote:
She said it to me a LOT. Her bookshelves were two deep and she loved to collect series. She always started with the first book in a series even if the first book that came to her attention was number 7! We shared titles, authors, reviews, and whatever else she could come up with. (BTW, she was not someone you could ever beat at Scrabble or any word game, I know, I tried and while I am by no means stupid, she creamed me nearly every time)
So, to cut a long ramble short, I decided I would start this blog with my favorite books or what I am reading and hope that others may find it and join in. My favorite thing about the internet is the information at my fingertips. No, maybe it is the variety of people you can reach and share things with... I don't know but I will start by listing the web pages of some of my favorites and hope it moves on from there.

"Too many books? There is no such thing as too many books, but too few bookshelves can be a problem."
