Vicki
Vicki is well travelled and well-wined…making her own that is! Don’t let her quiet demeanour fool you, in her former life Vicki was a teacher librarian so ask her anything about good choices for kids and she will give you a recommendation. When not on wine tours or frolicking in Mexico she can be found reading a good mystery novel with her sheltie, Charlie.
Some of Vicki's Recently Read Books Are:
The Book Of Negroes - Lawrence Hill
Julie and Julia - Julie Powell
The Glass Castle and Half-Broke Horses - Jeanette Walls
Still Alice - Lisa Genova
Her Favourite Crime/Thriller/Mysteries:
The Broken Window (Lincoln Rhyme) - Jeffery Deaver
A Plague of Secrets (Dismas Hardy) - John Lescroart
