I havent heard of either of those authors
My favorite authors are:
john grisham
nora roberts
danielle steele
mary higgins clark
james patterson
I have not been able to read in months because of my vision however, the last book was a series by Nora Roberts that I read and I need to read the third of the three it is called the SIGN OF SEVEN TRILOGY.. Very intriguing series I must say to me anyway.
My sister got me into james patterson.. I had never read his books before.. I keep seeing his new one being advertised cross country and think I would like that to be next on my list of reads.

Ah.. the problems with books! I love series books, ONLY if I can get the first one and read from 1 to... whatever.
I love James Patterson also, but have problems with his Cross series because there are soo many and hard to figure out .. who came first.
My fave Authors are John Saul and Dean Koontz. I have read every book (unless under different pen names) that these two gents have ever written.
I also like Kay Hooper and Heathe Graham (sp). Before I became officially dirt poor, I belonged to booksfree.com. I'd love to sign back up for it, but just can't swing the $$ a month. I just LOVE this website .. maybe someday!
It was cheaper than buying and easier than the library with a MUCH larger selection!!

Oh Sher..it was wonderful. You compiled a list of books you wanted to read, in the order you wanted them, and they shipped them on sets depending on your "order" of books a month.
When you finished the books you sent them back and they mailed you out the next round of books.
and the amount of books per means ONLY that you can't have more than that amount in your possesion. If you do the 4 a month, you read 2, send them back, still have 2 to read and get 2 more... and you can do this as much as you want. I've read 10 or more books in a month.
*sighs* Like I said. Someday!!

sounds like netflix! and I seriously loves me some netflix!
do you pay shipping on those books or do they?
|

It is exactly like netflix!!!
The postage is paid. When you get your books mailed to you, they come with a return mailer that is already postaged. When you are done with your books, you put them in the bag and mail em back. Soon as they get your returned books, they mail you your new books...and so on.
You can also monitor when they get your books. I had one set lost in the mail once. I contacted them via the website (instructions were there) and a few days later I got my new books. I don't know if they ever got the books, but I never had any issue/problems.
