Tom Perotta

Okay how cool is this....

I recently finished reading The Wishbones by Tom Perotta. If you have ever read his stuff you know how good he is and how you can get drawn in to the worlds he create. His characters are just so real and deal with problem that are real.

So any way I got through the book and just really liked it. I've read Little Children too and that was awesome. So, I emailed Tom at his website address and just told him how much I enjoyed his work and that I really thought his books representing life in the written form.

I figured he probably gets these emails all the time, so I was expecting any response back. But, about two days later, I get a response from him as follows:

Keith,

Thanks for the kind words--I'm really glad you enjoy my books.

Hope you have a great holiday season as well,

tom

How flipping cool is that. Just thought I would share. I'm sure some of you are saying to yourself, I actually wasted my time reading this post, but go read his books and you understand.
