I read lots of memoir, always return to mystery, enjoy literary, historical and some women's fiction. Once in a great while even science fiction and fantasy.<br /><br />I'm reading Steve Martin's An Object Of Beauty right now - not my usual thing, but I can't seem to put it downDeb Shuckahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03439395710731341021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5429542410238239360.post-18752099999648966832011-06-01T20:27:45.982-04:002011-06-01T20:27:45.982-04:00Hi Jess -
