i had a hell of a time finding any book ads for this weekend!!! i know damn well there were book ads in the 70s and 80s cuz i saw them in magazines!! that's how i learned about a lot of books....and not specifically book club adverts either....ads for a specific book.....
anyway....what do you like to read? i usually stick with non-fiction and bios/auto-bios but i will read stephen king books....i got the 2nd book in the mr. mercedes trilogy, finders keepers, from the library about a week ago and read it in 24 hours---great book! :) this year i'm keeping 'official' track of what i've read
here....um yeah, stephen king heavy, eh? i have skeleton crew ready to read in my 'from the library' pile too....i'll be finishing jesse ventura's american conspiracies today.....then i think i'll read the mary lincoln bio authorized by her son and his widow....
in the 80s when i laid out in the sun i read mostly fiction....jackie collins usually....and yeah, some stephen king then too....now for some reason i prefer non-fiction mostly....
what do you like to read? do you have a favorite book? topic? i think my favorite topic would probably be the british royal family.....i got hooked on them when i read about queen victoria's bad childhood....i also have loved gloria vanderbilt's books about her life....goes to show despite having wealth, you can have a horrible childhood too that will have repercussions that resonate later in life....
