I also want to read the Tolkien books.
I very much like both of these authors! Oates also writes mysteries under the pen name Rosamond Smith. I read "The Mercy of Thin Air" a few years ago. Thanks for the reminder. Have to check to see what she has written since then. Have you read Louise Erdrich?
Have not read Louise Erdrich----what type of books does she write? Thanks for sharing that Oates has other books under a pen name-----I should have known that, but did not. I saw her speak at UCF several years ago. Where in central FL do you live? We lived in E Orlando for 26 years.
