Favorite Book: "Sackett's Land" by Louis L'Amour
"I love Louis L'Amore. I've got 40-50 of his books on my book shelf. Zane Gray is good, too. But I get a charge reading, and re-reading, L'Amore. Tonight I finished one on The Sacketts. What I do is this: after I finish reading the book, I write the date in the inside cover, then start reading the next one. Then I do the same with that book until I finish them all. Then I go back and start reading them over again! The action, the pictures, the characters are intriguing and colorful." |
