Glad to see it made it to you.
I just got back from 6 days at the cottage. Read 6 books.
3 mysteries - "Tis the season to be Murdered" by Valerie Wolzien ( I
LOVE Susan Henshaw!); "Too Many Cooks Spoil the Broth" by Tamar Myers.
(My first by her - very very funny), and "New Orleans Requiem" by D.J.
Donaldson. Betty sent me a signed copy of that one - it involves
Scrabble! It was very good. I also read a book that involved a murder,
"Miami Purity" by Vicki Hendricks. I wouldn't call it a mystery though,
more of an excuse to write about sex. I also read a book called
"White Rabbit" which is about an 88 year old woman on the last day of
her life. Her and her husband are 2 strange folks (probably no more than
other 88-year olds though). I really liked this book! I also read "The
Kitchen God's Wife" by Amy Tan. It still had the receipt in it from when
I bought it in '93. EXCELLRNT. Amy Tan is one heck of a writer. I
read all 500+ pages in about 10 hours, I couldn't out it down!!! I guess
it was a lucky vacation too - no duds!
... Brain damage? No thanks, I already have some.
