week. She can really write but not my cup of tea. Too sad.

Back to Dick Francis comfort zone. Picked up an armload at my favorite used bookstore as library only has ebooks/audio. Owner handed me a perfect cloth shopping bag for my treasures. For free. I love bookstores.

Ps thanks for heads up on a new Dana Stabenow. Put on my library holds list.
