THE READING ROOM

The Sedona Red Rock News had an article on The Indie 2009 Best Seller List (American Bestsellers Association). I do not belong to a book club and rely on my friends and published lists, such as this, for good reading material. Although I've read a few of these books, the rest are out there just waiting for me. Thought you might find the list useful, which I'm sure differs a bit from our Canadian lists. You might find a book or two that you haven't read or heard of, or possibly not!
