I love this thread, we've got to keep it going.

Shaun, those sound really good. I'm Not the New Me sounds funny. The Mill reminds of the The Girl with the Pearl Earring for some reason, maybe it's the cover.

I already posted all this on Flybabies, but I will again. I am reading any Jody Picoult I can get my hands on because I love her books! Just checked out the Tenth Circle and finished the Pact and Plain Truth. Very good. Jenny, i think you would like them a lot. Heidi has read some of hers. Also am reading Whose Names Are Unknown about the Dust Bowl. So much I want to read and not enough time of course. My other favs are Anita Shreve and Barbara Kingsolver, Jane Smiley. Anne Tyler, Anna Quindlen and others. I've made a decision I will only read what I like with maybe a few forays into the unknown. I have spent too many hours reading books I was bored with but thought I was supposed to read. Life is too short!
