Hi -- I joined some time ago but am only now introducing myself (being the procrastinator that I am). Born and raised in Hollywood, California; have lived the last 25 years in the Washington, DC suburbs; have 2 kids, 1 husband, 2 cats.
I REALLY don't need any more suggestions of authors and/or books to read -- my bookshelves are crammed; my TBR stacks are toppling; books are littering my floors and cluttering my desk, night stand, and dining room table. But, of course, how can I resist recommendations from this group of readers???
