*NEW* Recommended Books

I changed my venue for recommending books to a website that accomplishes what I wanted to, but would never achieve on hankbrown.org.  www.GoodReads.com allows members to post books they've read, are reading, and intend to read along with ratings and reviews.  I rarely read a book that wasn't previously recommended to me; now I can go to this website and see where my friends will point me.  I hope to see you as a "friend" on Good Reads.  H.
