You are a very good writer. I'm not sure how I came upon your site, but I began reading it and, thought I would comment. I especially enjoyed your book reviews. My name is Regina. I am a senior of English and Creative Writing at California University of Pennsylvania. I write for an online Literary Magazine- Beanery Writers. You can log on as a guest anytime. Feel free. Well, I wanted to acknowledge your talent. I'm working on my first book. Classes will begin soon and I need to write at least five chapters.

Best of Luck,

Regina

Mendoza is really an interesting character. While I like the Company novels in which she isn't front and center, the ones where she is an active character are my favorites.

As far as reading widely...that's my father's fault. He raised me to believe that everything is interesting, and with a few exceptions I believe that. I'm not sure sometimes if it is a blessing or a curse, but for better or worse, I can work up at least some interest in almost any topic.

And, yeah...librarything. I had heard of it, but hadn't clicked over to check it out until I read your comment. It looks like I'll probably do that when I find a little time to catalog my books. I had to leave a lot of my books behind when I moved a couple of years ago, simply because I had to do the move all by myself and just couldn't take all those books along.

However, I did manage to bring one bookcase and enough books to fill it...and now my collection is growing by leaps and bounds again (I came home with 19 books from my shopping when I was in SoCal recently), so I think it is the perfect time to catalog them on librarything, before it gets out of hand again.

I just started reading the first company novel today, and so am just becoming acquainted with the child Mendoza. I'm more interested in her now.

I really like your book list. I'm impressed that you read so widely. You really should do the librarything!

Thanks for your responses--I love these opportunities to get to know my friends a little better.
