Willekeurige boeken van LynnB

Over mijzelfI am an avid reader, and like to keep track of what I've read. I belong to three book clubs: (1) The Administrators' Colloquium which reads books on public policy issues. (2) The Rideau Club book club, which I joined with my husband. I read the books aloud to him while he drives us to and from work. (3) A book club we started at work to ensure that, at least once a month, we got away from our desks at lunch hour.

Over mijn boekenI am using LibraryThing to list the books I read.

I loved your review of Nickolski!

I received a gratis copy as part of the Librarything Early Reviewers program, so I was obligated to post a review and, like you, it took me so long to finally write the review. The book is deceptively facile. Underneath the [mkind of] breezy tale, it's very dense - thematically speaking and left me with so much to think about.

Great review.

Hi, Lynn- Thanks for the info on "Shadow Divers". It looks very good. A good friend lent it to me, he's not much of a reader, so I wasn't sure but now I am, and hope to get to it in a few weeks. Visit me on Mark's 50 Book Challenge sometime and see what I'm reading. Take care!

Noticed that you liked The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). I thought you might like my novel since it's been compared to that novel by a number of reviewers. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

I combined The World's Shortest Stories such that there are now 114 copies. I separated out The World's Shortest Stories : 55 fiction (2 copies), as the Library of Congress indicates this book came out in 1995, while the other (whether or not it has the full subtitle (Murder, Love, Horror, Suspense, All This and Much More ...). It may be that both books have the same stories, but we don't know. 55 is the number of words in each story. You go to the author page, and then from there you go its combine/separate page. To do this right, I went to Worldcat and Harvard Univ Lib as well as LOC. There is also a work titled "The World's Shortest stories of love and death", also by Steve Moss, which may just be an audio book, and left it separate. (47 copies)
