Danielle Steel reminds me of my childhood. My mom used to be reading them all the time.
I tried one but I was much much too young at the time so maybe I should give them another try!

Loved it.

Keys and I were just talking about this book!

I love this book as well. It was one of the first books that came with me during my move from America to England.

do you have a preference for translation? I was reading online and I heard people saying things like "oh this translation of Dostoyevsky is the best" and I guess I just never considered who translated it when picking out a copy. I was just curious if you have noticed any differences in your reading

I'm doing the same thing G-man! but luckily for me moving to a different country weeded out books like that. I left all the boring manuals of geriatrics and other reference books back in NY
