Besides, it appears you are dead.

Right, but that means you also thought what I did.. "AHA!!! I can find her now."

Wowzer... that was a dead end. :p

At least now I know why she had no qualms giving us the title! Which btw, Amazon lists the hubster as the ONLY author.

The book is in the first person. That's why the writing credit is HUBBO with 3894.

The Fourth Bear is part of a new series he's doing, Nursery Crime. It's very difficult to describe. My hairdresser asked about what I was reading and I tried to explain it was a mystery but most of the characters were from nursery rhymes and she was giving me a blank look so I gave up. They're amusing but I like the Thursday Next books more.

I found the name of that book I'm about to start... it's called Veil of Roses and it's about an Iranian girl adjusting to American culture

I also mean to re-read the Dark is Rising series by Susan Cooper. I guess they're making movies of them, and it's been a while since I read them. They're kids books, but I still liked them. I saw they've been re-issued.

I'm currently absorbing "The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk: A Century by the Sea"

Thanks once again, Snowflake.

I got a sack full of Nora Roberts from a client today- she's a sweetheart and I don't have it in me to tell her I can't read Nora Roberts as I have an aversion to puking. Thankfully, I don't have to provide book reports upon return. However, there are a couple of Janet Ivanovich books in the bag, and I read one of hers that was hilarious so I should probably at least take a peek.

I'm also (re) reading 'Agincourt', by Juliet Barker. I love that period in history, and that battle in particular. One of the best books I ever read on the subject was a fictional novel called 'Fortune Made His Sword', but the author's name escapes me at the moment. Great book.
