Not a chick lit fan, but do read memoirs. Mysteries too, but not horror/suspense stuff. And I read a lot of chapter books with my grandkids, very different from the books I read when a kid.

I do like Reacher and Bosch, as well as Joe Pickett as I think those long running series of books allows the character to be a lot more developed. Well that's my story anyway and I'm sticking to it.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09016073653349776611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626594980028435818.post-52417118091869309342014-06-24T11:49:42.027-04:002014-06-24T11:49:42.027-04:00Anon., thank you, really.
