Recent Book Activity

I love to read! I enjoy reading books that are in the following genres: Romance, Suspense/Thrillers, Fantasy & Mysteries (cozies). Some of my personal favorites are: Suspense/Thriller - "A Terrible Beauty" by Graham Masterton; Fantasy - The Belgariad & Mallorean series by David & Leigh Eddings; and as far as Romance - anything by Nora Roberts, Heather Graham, Catherine Coulter, Jude Deveraux & Andrea Kane, as well as many others. I have become a huge fan lately of the female amateur sleuth mysteries called "cozies" and paranormal romances.

Here is my Wishlist of books I am wanting:
