Susan Elizabeth Phillips Another Chicago Stars book! Yes. I know I said I was done--unless I could bring something fresh to the series. And I think I'm doing that. Early days, yet.

New historical romance discoveries have been Sarah MacLean and Tessa Dare. Women's fiction--not a new discovery since I've been reading her for years, but Kristin Hannah's new book, THE NIGHTINGALE. (Pack tissues. Very, very moving.) I've only recently discovered Liane Moriarty's books and am enjoying them. As for old favorites, who can beat Jennifer Crusie and Jayne Ann Krentz. In Y.A., I raced through all the Harry Potters and Hunger Games books. I'm pretty much a book slut! In the best possible way, of course. (less)
