Introduce yourself!

[Stephanie]

Welcome! Please tell us a bit about yourself - are you a longtime fan of J.A. Jance or new reader? Which series is your favorite?

[ruthmary]

I have read every book that Judy has written, been reading what seems like a very long time, and cannot stop. When my daughter lived in Seattle she was able to get autographed copies of books, pictures from the Dog House, and many more things.

I have trouble deciding which series i like the most, but probably Baumont, since it was the first.

I hope these books do not stop, or that I die first so I won't know.

Hi, I'm Kris, and this was my first J.A. Jance book and I loved it. I loved Beau and Mel, such great characters. I look forward to reading many more.

[Stephanie]

Ruth,

I can't decide which series I like best either- Joanna is my kind of lady, but Beau is terrific too. Nope- still can't choose just one!

[kiakar]

I signed in somewhere, but will do it again. I am Linda from Central Va., oldtimer at Barnes and Noble reading groups. Just recently started reading alot of mystery-murder books and saw the new books for this month and liked the sound of J.A. Jance's Justice denied. The title kind of got my attention. And it is really great.

Dear Ruth,

I'm not planning on dying anytime soon, so Beau is safe.

Ok, if Linda is going to introduce herself, mentioning she's an "old timer" on Barnes and Noble....well...she is older than I! I'm a few posts shy of her! We've been around Barnes and NobleU. for a long while...But, Stephanie is older...I think she's my mother!

I did, already, sorta introduce myself....But here, I'll do it again:

I'm Kathy S. (not to be confused with other Kathys). I live in the southern region of California, south/east of LA. The end of the world, where it never rains...and bakes in the summer months. My brain is usually fried, most of the time, along with the egg on the sidewalk - Linda and Stephanie will probably attest to that.

My reading habits are eclectic...from art books to psychology, were I view literature/writing as art; and I read whatever is inbetween that strikes my current cord of interest. I do love a good mystery....cut my teeth on Christie, and Doyle, but I've never discussed them. I have too many authors I like - and to mention them all, would be forgetting another. I am enjoying this reading of Justice Denied. Now I must get back to it!

Linda, there is only one of me (Kathy S.)
There is more than one Kathy on B. and N - different last initials....

Did I scramble your fried eggs?

I'm sorry if I did.

I cannot tell a fib!

Lets just have our eggs fried scrambled and then we can boil them. And then bake them.
sounds good!

Linda,

Great to see you here- I should have thought to recommend this one to you- I think (if you haven't already finished it) that you're going to love it.

[LeftBrainer]

Hi I'm Nancy from Nebraska. You know the funny shaped state in the middle of the county, low population, different state government, and gound water. I've read several J A Jance books over the years. I've a friend who lives near Bisbee and I first heard about J A Jance from her. I'm looking forward to reading Justice Denied and discussing it. Talk to you soon, Nancy

oh yes; Stephanie; I do love it! I have finished also, you can't put it down. You have to know what happens. And Beau's family is so typical to the norm of families. ha. Really a great book.

[Stephanie]

Hi Nancy,

Glad you're here - looking forward to hearing your thoughts on Justice Denied.
