Find something new

I have a confession. I’m not very good at keeping up on new books. It’s true. I usually resort to the classics …or, at the very least, authors I know and love.

With that in mind, I’m trying something new; with that in mind, I’m asking, “Any New Books?” And by george, I’m going to get an answer!

Any New Books?, you see, is a service that delivers a list of recent releases right to your inbox. You simply sign up … select your categories … confirm your subscription … and away you go. Even better? The books are handpicked by a team of passionate readers.

Give it a try … after all, you never know when you’ll happen upon a book you never knew, you could never live without …

Louis L'amour

text your ex back

As of late, I've been drawn to Louis L'Amour. I've yet to read one of his stories, mind you; but they were favorites of my grandfather. He died last week; now I'm sorry I never took the time to read one of those Westerns … for conversation, if nothing else.

Still, I'll look to add a few to my own personal library, in memorandum.

If only I had a few thousand lying about, I might start with this one, from text your ex back
