Thumbs up for More Book Lust by Nancy Pearl. Nonfiction.
Loved Book Lust (my review here). Had to read the sequel. Still gratified to see how many books there are in the world that I’ll never want to read; and at the same time, found just a few I can’t wait to dig into:
For all readers who delight in women of courage and valor, and love to read about women coming into their own, but don’t care for the contemporary chick-lit novels, Mary Stewart is for you. Among my favorites (see page 205 in Book Lust for more) are Nine Coaches Waiting, Wildfire at Midnight, and Madam, Will You Talk? Thankfully, once you’ve read every Stewart novel two or three times, there are some other writers who are nearly as good. Rest assured that most of these women were prolific writers, so you’re probably set for a long time.
