For Dan Brown Fans

The new Dan Brown book, The Lost Symbol comes out on September 15.
For anxious secret-society fans, the book cover was recently revealed depicting a wax seal, a double-headed Phoenix and the Latin phrase, "Ordo ae chao," meaning Order from Chaos.
This all set against a background of ancient symbols.

The Lost Symbol follows several best sellers, The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons, Digital Fortress and Deception Point.

Good Reads

Invitations are extended to us everyday on the internet. One intrigued me this week ~ probably because of the person who sent it. Grace is going into third -- or is it forth? -- year English, at McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario.

http://www.goodreads.com/ "See what your friends are reading" is the websites' claim. The Most Followed screen is interesting. Regular contributors discuss books that they are reading. There is an Author Blog Post where you will find names like Alice Hoffman discussing her latest book. Other features: Authors Recently On-line, Exclusive Interviews, Author Blog Post.
goodreads is definitely worth exploring.
