28. Lately, I've been on a Robyn Carr binge

I tend to read all an author has in print. Just waiting for new books there. There is one due out at the end of the month.

I read about 3 books a week. I am always looking for new authors!

I've read a lot of Susan Mallery on a binge a while back. Have read a lot of Julia Quinn, some Lisa Kleypas (that is hit and miss for me). Julie James sounds familiar- with the volume of books I go through, I often only remember the names of those writers that I binge read.

Things I like to read include historical romance, contemporary, mystery- basically anything at all that is well written. I like books about places I want to be. (Stabenow- Alaska or Nevada Barr series) Reading becomes like a mini vacation for me.

I've read most of the local writers (Austin, Texas) I used to read a lot of science fiction (cyberpunk Gibson), fantasy, (Roger Zelazny was a fav) and tons of mysteries, general fiction and then lots of esoteric yoga and astrology books.

Okay, I admit it.. I'm an omnivorous reader.

I hope you are on that list you sent. I'll check out some of the other authors.
Thanks so much for compiling the list!
