Hey, thanks for reading my book! I agree that my character can be annoying, but glad you found something redeeming. I have it on Google alerts so I can see when anyone reviews it - sorry if that's creepy. Anyway, you seem like a pretty good writer yourself. Those chocolate/peanut butter cookies sound yummy. Have happy holidays!!!

Jess,
Your website is awesome! Do you realize that some of these entries are made at 6:00 AM!!!
I just finished Plain Truth by Jodi P. We have a lot of Amish around here and it was great getting to understand the "Plain" people better. We have diversity all around us if we but look and learn.
See you soon!

That is one of the books on my 'to do' list. With everything going on... not sure when I'll get around to it though. Maybe we can rap about it when I get to it. Thanks for checking out my site. It's a great way to keep in touch with friends and family and a fun way to meet new people too.
