On the Southern Literary Trail discussion

Wicked City was our community read last year. I don't think it went over very well, but I enjoyed it! One of my friends told me that was because "it reminds you of your sorry relatives." She was probably right. ;^)

Ace Atkins will be at Square Books in Oxford, Ms. signing his latest novel The Lost Ones on May 31, 2012. If you can't make it, Square Books ships!

I went down to the Friends of the Library Store today and found for the measly sum of $2.00, Crossroad Blues by Ace Atkins. Opened it up and there it was--first edition, "inscribed" by the author. Nothing but net. SCORE!



Atkins first novel

Why, thank you, Ma'am! When the volunteer at the cash out asked, "Isn't this a fun place," I readily agreed. *smile*

Awesome! A weak second behind ShaZAM!, but what can I do. ;^)
