(Like I don't already have enough in the queue.) The problem I have when I go through my boxes is I pull out some I want to read. I do get rid of a few at the same time.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-21084922814446762552014-10-06T20:40:26.937-07:002014-10-06T20:40:26.937-07:00Another Ross Thomas fan then!

I have more of his - unread of course.<br /><br />Moira, asking how many tubs there are, is akin to me asking a lady her age - it just isn't the done thing, you know! Haha.........ok more than 60, plus still a load of books in boxes that I recently recovered from my mother-in-law's attic.

Like Prashant, I haven't thought of Ross Thomas in years, though read a few in the past. The one that jumped out was the Don Winslow - I read that when it first came out, and remember loving it. I was a big fan of his, must look him up and do some re-reading. <br />How many tubs are there?Clothes In Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14680610242823846662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-38863930098831588012014-10-06T04:26:27.504-07:002014-10-06T04:26:27.504-07:00Margot, thanks.

I would like to complete this task as it would be handy to be able to put my hands on a particular book as and when it was wanted, but we will see how I go. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-7872080436323213092014-10-06T03:53:22.111-07:002014-10-06T03:53:22.111-07:00Col - Oh, I admire you for working to get your boo...Col - Oh, I admire you for working to get your book collection in order. I think it's so easy to forget what you have and don't have without going through your books. I hope you come up with some real treasures that you didn't even remember you had.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-76921245452067951202014-10-06T00:26:39.890-07:002014-10-06T00:26:39.890-07:00Prashant, I'm sure I've read a couple by R...Prashant, I'm sure I've read a couple by Ross Thomas in my pre-blogging, pre-record keeping days.

Among the authors, one name sticks out — Ross Thomas. I'd completely forgotten about him though I'm certain I have read something by him. I read about him just now and found that he wrote thrillers with political overtones. No wonder he sounded familiar.Prashant C.
