If you enjoy reading about the crime, the Dets who solve them, the prosecutors who prosecute the criminals this is the club for you.

Are you a Law & Order junkie too?

I told the All Booked Up store at Colony the title of your book. They are good to work with and might be able to order it for you. They'll give a 25% discount on orders of 5 or more. I don't know if they currently have any copies in stock.

Hi Novelchick, thought you might be interested that Joey (Joe) Mantegna is an old high school boyfriend of mine! I'm very proud of his success and love Criminal Minds. It's my favorite too, but really because I think it is so well written. We are also big Law and Order and CSI fans.

Yes, that's him. He was in the year ahead of me at Morton East High School in Cicero, IL He's a sweetie! Used to practice with his band at my Dad's tavern on Sunday's. Homecoming and all! I could say I took a wrong turn in life (could be rich in Hollywood) but I adore my husband. So, I know I took the right path.

hi chelsea wow he is handsome!! Although others don't care for is character i love him on the show. i love all the characters. that is what makes the show!! if you like reading, hope to see you at our new book club. part 1 of the book is great with story. part ii goes into trial. drags a bit but book overall is excellent!! really good read!!

[HuskersInLadyLake]

Not sure if this still active as it's such an old threat but I'm a mystery/true crime lover as well!

The person who started this thread and posted the time of the meetings, Novelchick hasn't posted for a good while.

I see no reason why we who love to read True Crime books can't continue on and decide what time to meet. I hope if such a book club starts you will keep us posted. Unfortunately, I won't be there until October or I would volunteer our home to meet in.

I am looking forward to taking the course called "The Criminal Mind" at the Lifelong Learning College too. I just love to hear why people do the things they do. I have been reading true crime since growing up in my grandparents house where my grandfather was a police officer and he had a lot of detective magazines that I would sneak around and read until I got caught.

I'd love to be kept informed, also, and could host some of the meetings at our house. After all, nonfiction is stranger than fiction!
