I was sixteen when I read my first Jackie Collins book (ROCK STAR) and after that I was hooked. The talented and beautiful JACKIE COLLINS promised her fans that she would bring Lucky Santangelo back and she has come through on that promise. Now Jackie Collins presents the famous, fierce, heroine Lucky Santangelo in GODDESS OF VENGEANCE. In the book, Lucky is divorced from her husband and has a grown son named Bobby and a teenage daughter. Lucky has everything; family, love, life, and owns her own Las Vegas casino/hotel complex.

If you want to read more of Lucky Santangelo here are the other books:

CHANCES
LUCKY
LADY BOSS
VENDETTA:LUCKYS REVENGE
DROP DEAD BEAUTIFUL

GODDESS OF VEGEANCE is coming out in the US on Sept.13th. And in the UK it will be available April 14th.
You can pre-order the book GODDESS OF VENGEANCE, and order other books at her website: www.JackieCollins.com

Dragons and Science

What happened 400 years in the future in Book 1: DRAGONS AND WOLVES began 30 years in the past with Book 2: THE DRAGON & THE DETECTIVE. This incredible horror fantasy comes full circle to when it all began in Book 3: DRAGONS AND SCIENCE – the conclusion of the trilogy by master storyteller, Drew Henriksen. Prepare yourself for Dragons and Gargoyles, Werewolves and Monsters, Witches and Sorcerers, Ancient Curses and Unspeakable Powers, Villains and Warriors. This tale has it all, in page-turning abundance.

Drew Henriksen has just released his newest book, DRAGONS AND SCIENCE. Apparently there is also interest in Drew’s screenplays in the film world by Brad Thornton’s HopeWood Films.

Just when does a library book “expire”?

How many times have you walked inside your local library to check out a book about a project,hobby or homework assignment,looked up the title of a book and found the book was older then YOU?
Outdated books are a source of both amusement and frustration for readers. The reasons could be both lack of funds to replace current books or perhaps a fear of discarding any books. A “No book is a bad book” type of outlook. Regardless of the reasons,many books in today’s libraries are way outdated and out of touch with today’s society.

In Plymouth,Michigan two librarians have decided to wage war on these books and started “weeding”out those books whose 15 minutes of shelf time should have been over years ago. The women,Mary and Holly,not only go through and weed out their library’s dead books but they created a website dedicated to blogging about the books they pull,but also about the pitched battles they wage with dust bunnies and the spiders who make those books home. Okay,so maybe I am a little dramatic about the battle part,but you get the point.
Pulling these books not only frees up space but I’m sure thanks to the website and a recent appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show,new fresh and more exciting reading material is on its way to the Plymouth Library.

To learn more about these two book crusaders,I posted the website below.
