I also want to read more by Hoffman as the only book that I've read by her was Practical Magic.

At one point, I wanted to read her entire backlist. Since then, I've decided to be more choosy. I ended up giving away a lot of my unread books by her and only have one or two still on my shelf to read.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-12406629655053160022012-02-27T12:45:31.367-08:002012-02-27T12:45:31.367-08:00I really like Hoffman's writing style.

Hoffman helped me realize that it had more to do with the author and book than actually with me.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-9843224516071536582012-02-27T11:19:12.994-08:002012-02-27T11:19:12.994-08:00I've had the Hoffman book on my list for forev...I've had the Hoffman book on my list for forever it seems. I also have the Douglas Preston book on my shelves somewhere in a big chunky paperback form.

I used to read Alice Hoffman all the time, but I have gotten slack with her. I haven't read Probable Future, but I own it.Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-40815722714622470002012-02-27T09:11:44.394-08:002012-02-27T09:11:44.394-08:00I have The Probable Future on my shelves, and thou...I have The Probable Future on my shelves, and though I haven't yet read it, it's the book that my daughter constantly seeks out and asks me for over and over again, and now, hearing your thoughts on it has me wanting to reach out for it myself. Great mini-reviews today!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.com
