I loved *The 19th Wife*, but I didn't get it from LT. My "source" was tlcbooktours, and I'm running the review on 10/20. I also met David Ebershoff at a signing last month, which was fun. The LTER program is great; a mixed-bag with fun surprises! My favorites of LTER books received are *The Genizah at the House of Sheper* (fiction) and *Hurry Down Sunshine* (memoir).

I am SO glad that you started the ARC Junkies as that is one of my favorite groups. I don't check ER group that often. Great list of books and thoughts on ER program and discsussion group.

Incidentally, I appreciate the reminder about Franklin and Lucy. I remember reading about it but it had since fallen off my radar.

Actually, of the three people that rated it higher than 3 stars, one was the author.

My Father's Paradise was wonderful. Tears of the Desert was painful, but it was still fantastic in my opinion. I just started The 19th Wife yesterday and I don't want to do anything but read it right now - it grabbed me from the first page. You’ve done well. My Father’s Paradise was wonderful.

I agree about the ER thread, I don't spend much time there either now that we have all moved to ARC Junkies. You’ve gotten some great ones!
