Dear Reader,

He's a real nice guy, he reads at the book club, and he has a great phone voice, too. I know, because he called me last week and we talked for 30 minutes. Oh yes--and the most important thing--he wrote the book Second Soul.

Author Thomas Sullivan's book, Second Soul is our bonus read this week. Sample his book, jot down your comments, email them to me, and I'll forward them on to Thomas. He loves to hear from readers.

I have 20 copies of Second Soul to give away to readers, and Thomas has agreed to call one lucky book club reader on the phone. It's a conversation you won't want to miss.

In the meantime, here's a note from author Thomas Sullivan:

To "Dear Readers"...

Every now and then the past comes back to be the future. I remember starting a library when I was twelve or so, and cozying up to the well-stocked bookshelves in houses my parents took me to visit. Those associations with literature and the people who shared a love of life written down, seemed to ebb in the proliferation of electronic media as I grew older. A picture, after all, is worth a thousand words, they say.

But which words? I missed the direction of a skillful writer and the parlaying of impressions that artist might leave in others who came to their art. Suzanne seems to have brought the best of both worlds back in vogue. DearReader.com has come into my life like a long lost relative. I know many of you feel the same way. Reading is always a search for something in our lives--past, present or future. Read on and enjoy.

All my best...Thomas Sullivan / Second Soul
