I maintain you ask the very best questions.<br /><br />You have such excellent books on YOUR nightstand that I wish I could whisk the whole caboodle to my house; but then I guess that'd be stealing.<br /><br />I haven't read Team of Rivals, but always heard amazing things about it. Evidently Goodwin went into a pretty major depression while writing the section about Lincoln's assassination, she'd gotten so attached.The Crislershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10716006297375813032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-6162279154146499662014-06-27T04:35:18.881-04:002014-06-27T04:35:18.881-04:00I have a stack of waiting-to-be-read books.

I write book reviews for a website called LitStack.com, so I read a lot of women's lit for that site. Not much noteworthy lately.Angiehttp://angiekaydilmore.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-81907459202108867542014-06-25T09:07:38.738-04:002014-06-25T09:07:38.738-04:00I have been saving up books for the first few days...I have been saving up books for the first few days of recovery from my surgery.
