All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome, Kathy HoopmannHookay. This is a PARTIAL list, and I just realized I’ve spent well over an hour adding to it. Over an HOUR. When I’m in the middle of a revision that needs to be to my editor next Monday. (Which is why my books have no links, and apologies for that – just really should NOT take the time for that!)<\/p>\n
Reining myself in, then, and simply saying, “and everything else on everyone else’s lists that I haven’t read yet.” Definitely drop a few of your very best recommended into the comments box; I’m really looking for UK reads, too, since I can get them here, read them, and lend them to some of you in the U.S. (and Kel @ Big A, has already called dibs on this, so you’ll have to wrangle with her).<\/p>\n
