Replay is here. I'm going to start reading it on the plane on Thursday.

BTW...I have all 5 of Jean Auel's books should anyone be interested. She's the author of the Clan of the Cave Bear. I have the first 4 of her books in paperback and the latest one in hardback. Got them for free this last weekend.

Also, Lesley, remember the Word-a Day website link I sent you a while back? I got the paperback book by the guy that started that site. I'll send it to you next week when I'm home from vacation...unless I happen to get a chance to run to the post office tomorrow between loads of laundry and packing...

A few days after reading this thread the first time, I was in a bookstore and, on a whim, picked up Replay. It's really good! I'm having a hard time putting it down to do important things b/c I wanna find out what happens . I'm about halfway through it now. Good recommendation .

Lesley, the Word-a-Day book is on it's way to the post office in just a few minutes. I'm sending it to your place in Toronto, but it won't get there until sometime next week...

And, while we're on the subject of things that I'm sending you, I haven't forgotten about that other thing I'm supposed to send you. Just having a bit more trouble than I expected tracking it down...

I'll try more after vacation...

I'm so glad to hear that Tedow! I heard about it on KLOS, an LA station, when Mark and Brian said they couldn't put it down. I would love to hear your thoughts about it when you are finished. It is different from anything else I've ever read.

Yes similar

I'd gladly mail you some, or bring a few to Vegas for you if you'd like
