The Washington Post asked me this last week, and this is how I answered:
"Shattered" by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes because I am a political junkie.
"My Darling Detective" by Howard Norman (I had to put it aside for some duty reading, but can't wait to get back to it)
"Small Admissions "by Amy Poeppel because I met her recently and was so impressed.
"Dinner with Edward" by Isabel Vincent because I love memoirs and food.
"Anything is Possible" by Elizabeth Strout because she wrote "Olive Kitteridge."
"My Life with Bob" by Pamela Paul because Maria Semple called it "the gateway book that will make you the fiendish reader you know you are!"

I love all your books, I actually met you once at a book talk and I told you how much I loved the movie "And then She found Me". I am so happy you are writing another book, my sister and I were afraid you had retired. My favorite books are The Pursuit Of Alice Thrift and Isabel's Bed. Keep Writing!!!!?

Good Morning! I met you once many years ago at an evening book signing in Beverly Hills. I mentioned I had read Inn at Lake Devine more often than The Little House Books, Secret Garden and Little Princess combined. Have you ever contemplated writing a sequel to that book? Or did the original book have deleted scenes or chapters? I guess I am looking for a director's cut ;).
