I can't believe I haven't done that one.<br /><br />I'm also tempted to include "get a book-related tattoo" on this list but I haven't done that... yet.Holly Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08910436592791818527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-56663407560846145152014-05-21T08:32:11.776-05:002014-05-21T08:32:11.776-05:00Great list.

UNBALANCED ACCOUNTS and DEATH TAPE both used the Trenton setting long before Janet Evanovich got to it. I have since had the privilege of hanging out with Kate Gallison at several conferences, and she is a funny and charming as her books.Al Tuchernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7119990365479009764.post-8837051888447558882014-05-21T07:26:16.152-05:002014-05-21T07:26:16.152-05:00Great list Holly.

I started reading it over the July 4th weekend and I skipped multiple parties and fireworks to finish that book before I had to return to work. There were fireworks aplenty in the words of that book.<br /><br />As for additions to the list. <br />Buy multiple copies of your favorite book and give them to everyone: I did this when I first discovered Lois Lowry's The Giver years ago; I literally must have given away 20 copies of that book in less than a month. And now, may of those folks are going to see the movie version with me, so we can remember our obsession.Kristopherhttp://www.bolobooks.comnoreply@blogger.com
