The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Ultimate Reading List sounds like a necessity in everybody's home. Meet the local authors who penned this literary list of 'great reads for busy people.' Former Velma Teague Branch manager, Shelley Mosley, will be returning to the downtown library to discuss her. She did not write this labor of love alone. City of Glendale employee Sandra Van Winkle and Scottsdale Public Library staffers John Charles and Joanne Hamilton-Selway also participated.
The book is a guide to help on-the-go people find great fiction and non-fiction reads. It is filled with recommendations for books that will entertain the reader, including mysteries, westerns, suspense, romance, women's fiction and chick lit, and science fiction. Non-fiction topics cover animals, art, biography, memoirs, business, true crime and more. Each entry has a summary of the book, its significance and a comment. Mosley and Charles are editors/contributors for Romance Today: An A-Z Guide to Contemporary American Romance Writers. They co-authored The Suffragists in Literature for Youth and write reviews for a variety of publications. Hamilton-Selway has been a librarian for 25 years. Named Romance Writers of America's 2005 Librarian of the Year, she has reviewed books and interviewed authors for more than 10 years. Van Winkle began writing seriously 20 years ago as a bibliographer in a variety of subject area. The book will be available for purchase and signing at the program. No reservations are necessary.
