Boy that Ms. Steele sure did get around.

Read and own The Mammoth Hunters & Skeleton Crew. Have Contact, but have not read it.

Yeah, she and Stephen King! :)

I read The Mammoth Hunters and Contact, and I think Skeleton Crew. I read some of Lake Woebegone Days and still have it. I used to love listening to Prairie Home Companion on the radio, so I got the book thinking I'd enjoy it as much, but for some reason I didn't. Someone gave me Dancing in the Light, but I think I gave it away. I wasn't much in the mood those days for that kind of book ~ I was a single mother of a two year old, and I wanted fictional fantasy, not real-life fantasy, for my escape. lol

I guess I'm not a best-seller kind of reader. I haven't read any of these.

Skeleton Crew is grand - some wonderful stories in there!

Nothing here for me, but someday I'd like to read the Cosell autobiography.

A Passion for Excellence. Depressing how many old titles seem familiar. Although I did go to a Tom Peters Seminar and got a signed copy of one of his books. Crazy Times Call For Crazy Organizations.

You can see that Danielle Steel doesn't have a lot of staying power compared to some of the authors on this list, even though she was prolific.
