I do it all the time. You can learn a lot that way.

But, making a list of this sort is not only an exercise (and a fun one) for the person doing it, but also a swell way for the reader to find more gems for his/her library. Also, what with many of us being aspiring or even published writers, I'm sure you can appreciate that this wonderful sort of word of mouth probably does more for a book than any amount of advertising aimed in the same direction. If you love something, shout it from the rooftops!<br /><br />Just my two cents (adjusted for inflation, about a cent and a half.)Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329973.post-1570390147526794512009-10-30T12:41:06.564-04:002009-10-30T12:41:06.564-04:00Have also read many of these and agree with him ab...Have also read many of these and agree with him about most.
