Spring is in the air, and that is a VERY good thing. It's amazing how some warm temperatures can really brighten your spirits.

I was lucky enough to catch two excellent events featuring three wonderful authors this week; that, coupled with the brilliant weather, has given me a real spring in my step.

I normally do not enjoy it when authors read, preferring to hear them talk, but Sarah's reading dropped me right into the mood and the story. The Postmistress was one of my Bets On picks to start the year, and it was such a thrill to see it debut on the New York Times and IndieBound lists.
