The Best Books I've Read In 2005

Hello Everyone. Happy New Year!

I can't believe that it's already 2006. Time sure does fly. It seems like it was only yesterday that our website was launched. I want to thank everyone for their continued support of the website. As of right now, we have over 4200 visitors to the website and over 100 mailing list subscribers. Not bad for a website that launched in July 2005! Ok, now back to the matter at hand. In 2005, I had the wonderful opportunity to read some really great books. So here's my Best Books I've Read in 2005 List. These books are in no particular order, and some of them didn't actually come out in 2005.

Hi I just had to mention one book for 2005 that you left off of your list Hood Rich by Crystal Perkins Stell. Once you read it, it will most definitely make your 2006 list!!!

Yes, and read PRETTY EVIL too. You'll be glad you picked that one up.

The best book I've read in 2005 is The Wages of Sin by a new kid on the literary block, Audrey Forrest Carter. It's hot! Filled with deception, sex, lavish living, intrique, and much, much more! Check it out! I guarantee you that you won't be disappointed.

Later!
