I read "The Omnivore's Dilemna" and was enthralled but didn't change my eating habits.<br /><br />A new mystery author I am enjoying is Colin Cotterill who has written six books about Dr. Siri, a 73 year old coroner in 1970's Laos. They're fun.<br /><br />A really really good book is "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08061517211101084120noreply@blogger.com
