I have a feeling you will really like Kristin. <BR/><BR/><B>Linda</B> - If only the local bookstores featured authors I know or want to read more often though! I got really lucky with Robert Fate's visit. <BR/><BR/>I can't imagine living so far from a bookstore, but then, I've pretty much always been a city girl. I've been spoiled having a B&N and Borders so close. I just wish there were more independent bookstores in the area.<BR/><BR/><B>Florinda</B> - I think you were the main person who got me interested in trying Michelle Richmond. :-) <BR/><BR/>I've been wanting to read something by Elizabeth Strout since meeting her last spring. I have another one of her books on my TBR shelf too. <BR/><BR/><B>Jen</B> - I have some good reading ahead of me. :-)<BR/><BR/><B>Nat</B> - No, we can never have enough!
