    I hope you like the Headmaster's Wager, liked it as a literary and historical novel. Also enjoyed Gone as women's fiction.

    Enjoy all the books!

    I really enjoyed The Most Dangerous Things (especially b/c it is set in my hometown). I hope you do too!

    I have The Year of the Gadfly, and I need to make the time to read it when I can. Lately, my book mojo is running short, so I am just going to have to pull up my bootstraps and get back on the horse and read, read, read. Nice selection you've got there!
