Have you read "A Scream for Jeeves"? Most amusing.

How to Rebuild and Modify Carter/Edelbrock Carburetors: Performance, Street, and Off-Road Applications by Dave Emanuel

Ponine: I read the first one because it was called Morrigan's Cross (or something like that). Couldn't resist!

Overall I thought her style a little cheesy and supermarket-ready, but it WAS entertaining, to be fair. I think if she'd taken the sex out of it, it would have been even better as a normal work of fiction.

Currently slowly working my way through the last HP. Since I don't get much time to read, I do a chapter or less some nights.

Susan is a voracious reader and is often working on more than one book at a time. She will listen to a book on the iPod while she gets ready for bed, and then reads a different one once she gets there. She keeps another in her purse to read if she is out and has a few minutes.

Wait a sec... I thought your authoring identity was as secret? Or is it just your nom de plume that is secret?

Besides, it appears you are dead.

My last read was 'The Kite Runner'. I've purchased 'A Thousand Splendid Suns' and can't wait to get started on it.

Next up, as I have to read ATSS I will be reading 'Aria'.

'The Kite Runner' was an awesome read, very well written. I read it like it was a decadant piece of chocolate cake.

Since ATSS is by the same author, I expect nothing less!!

Aria is in a similar setting and is recommended if you've enjoyed TKR/ATSS.

Or, as Spanky used to say, Re-MARK-able!

3894, that you are, my dear, that you are!

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

Wowzer... that was a dead end.

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.
