Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (John Berendt)
I'm going to go ahead and copy Amanda on this one!
I just found this on my bookshelf over the weekend. I had no idea we had it. You ladies should let me know how it is and mayhaps I'll read it as well at some point.
Same here. It was one of the books included in my $20 "bag o' excellence" purchase (from the Jax big book sale) that I don't remember ever picking out.
It's supposed to be a good one!

Maybe that's where I got it from, too! Haha. Speaking of that book sale, it should be coming up soon!!!
Well, I'm sure SF has much more exciting things in the world of books. But I am excited nonetheless.
The best part is all the books are donated to the library for the sale. So they weren't ever actually library books. No tacky shelving numbers/ jacket cover protecters etc. They also have an entire "popular reading list" section with all the good stuff. Only prob is, nothing's in alphabetical order. Erg!
Crikey. That would suck. However, even though the books are in alphabetical order here, shoving all the S authors together isn't very organized. It took me like 20 minutes to find one Nicholas Sparks book that I didn't have.
Hahaha. By the time I went (in Jax) those were so picked through! I did score The Guardian and a dilapidated copy of Three Weeks With My Brother, both of which I have yet to read. My "to-read" shelf is rapidly getting out of control.
