It's like not having anything to wear, but worse!!

I have nothing to read. The shelves and shelves (and boxes) of books nonwithstanding. I staunchly maintain I have nothing to read.

Virginia Beach, for all its myriad and horrible faults, has a great public library system. So I have access to books, and actually just finished Golding's To the Ends of the Earth books and Elizabeth Howard's 4 Cazalet books. But now I am out of inspiration.

I would greatly appreciate any recommendations. I tend to lean toward science fiction and historical fiction (except for Philippa Gregory, who writes trash at the expense of history and defamed Catherine of Aragon, one of the Great Classy Ladies of History), also mysteries, biographies, and pretty much anything else. I have catholic (small c) tastes.

Thanks very much in advance!

No-- actually I didn't even know there was a third one! -- but they haven't come to my libraries yet that I've noticed, which is usually the only way I ever read anything. That's weird that Grand Tour isn't in letters though-- it seemed like a perfect opportunity for it!

Well, they can't be writing to each other in Grand Tour, because they're together the whole time. They tried to find another way to write the halves independently, but it just didn't work as well.
