I am Nancy and I partcipated in "The Sister" and "Songs for the Missing" First Look Book Clubs last spring. I hail from Texas. I recently finished reading "The Widow Clicquot", the true story of a French woman who created a champagne empire in the early 1800's and an historical fiction about coffee and the suffrage movement set in the late 1800's in Lonodon called "The Various Flavors of Coffee". I am now enjoying a mystery titled "A Death in Vienna". I guess I'm traveling the world through books until I have more time to travel in person.
I look forward to reading and discussing our book in early January.

Hello all!
My name is Katelyn, I'm from Connecticut, and this will be my first time participating in First Look. I read a very wide range of literature which consists of basically anything I can get my hands on. I try to attend any author events possible, and some of my favorites include Wally Lamb, and Stephenie Meyer. I look forward to experiencing this new form of author reader interaction.

Hi! I participated in The Believers first look and it was a great experience. I got more out of that discussion then I have any in person book club I have ever attended. The summary of this book looks like something I would pick up at the store and want to read, so I can't wait!
I'm also a member of the paranormal and we read the best books for any of you that are a little off kilter!!! Just kidding. I'm on kilter and that's why I love my paranormal books!!
talk to you more soon

My door bell rang a couple of hours ago and, by the time I reached the door, the delivery man had disappeared, but A Fortunate Age lay across my door jam!
I look forward to reading it, along with the many other books on my current reading list. But, as always with First Look books, I anticipate the fun of discussing it with all of you. I am certain we shall also enjoy the leadership of Karen once again!
I am an avid, eclectic reader living in New Jersey. I very much enjoy the B&N boards and the discussions here. For a sense of a few of my reading interests, visit my profile. I have appreciated the feedback that I have received (in personal messages) to date.

Happy Reading
