Imagine that! An agency doing something intelligent! I'm not sure what their criteria was but I'm guessing it was done by checking with participating publishers who support their organization on what is most popular.Kay Dennisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02646717192332313215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20703123.post-51451567203143939342008-08-12T15:35:00.000-04:002008-08-12T15:35:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Kay Dennisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02646717192332313215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20703123.post-77475374255927451872008-08-12T14:30:00.000-04:002008-08-12T14:30:00.000-04:00Naked Bear got the list from one of my postings ba...Naked Bear got the list from one of my postings back on 8/2/08. Its a list put out by just one of the publishing houses, and of those titles that they publish, which explains why so many other great books are not mentioned. I found it interesting that almost the majority of the books you have read on the list, I have not----maybe thats why I enjoy you postings, and find them new and refreshing.Gary ("Old Dude")https://www.blogger.com/profile/00840287762340872772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20703123.post-78328709092573280332008-08-12T11:58:00.000-04:002008-08-12T11:58:00.000-04:00I have a lot of reading to catch up with you!I did...I have a lot of reading to catch up with you!<BR/><BR/>I did post my list tooBevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07458851510738234247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20703123.post-14968822478280657472008-08-12T11:14:00.000-04:002008-08-12T11:14:00.000-04:00I just love reading and it's great to see that y'a...I just love reading and it's great to see that y'all do, too!
