It's always fun to visit with you great ladies/writers!<br /><br />AuthorGuy, I love your comment about strong characters. It's so true. They can entertain and teach us much time after time.<br /><br />Red Hot, I re-read the Great Gatsby just last year (Atlanta had a kind of community effort), and loved it for some of the same initial reasons and for new ones as well. Thanks for sharing your experience!<br /><br />My co-author Mary and I are such fans of To Kill A Mockingbird, that I'm not surprised it showed up on her comment!<br /><br />Diana<br />http://www.WoofersClub.blogspot.com<br />http://www.DianaBlack.netDiana Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06177915857090560626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-54183359584156634082010-01-08T08:35:56.656-05:002010-01-08T08:35:56.656-05:00Thanks for hosting WOOF today, Stiletto Gang!

It's like visiting with an old friend; yes, you know their story and history, but there's comfort in the familiar.<br /><br />I love how your family read "Catcher in the Rye". For my family, it was "The Great Gatsby". It had long been a favorite of mine, and then my daughters had to read it last year for school, but re-read it again for pleasure. It was wonderful to be able to have our own little book club to discuss the book from our own perspectives.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609537659087599051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-36348474258409888002010-01-08T08:28:46.872-05:002010-01-08T08:28:46.872-05:00I reread constantly.

Lois McMaster Bujold's Curse of Chalion, or her A Civil Campaign. I recently discovered Tanya Huff's latest, The Enchantment Emporium, and I go back to that a lot. Another frequent re-read is The RiddleMaster of Hed trilogy, by Patricia McKillip. That's the great thing about strong characters, I don't get tired of reading about them, even if I know what's coming.Author Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18316825723835547403noreply@blogger.com
