And I definitely understand about trying to hook 'em into the books. LOL I mentioned the letter in the back because I had one patron who missed it and when I asked her about it, she didn't even realize that it was there. Wonder if she's ever gotten to read it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-13041397478340224252008-01-30T17:04:00.000-06:002008-01-30T17:04:00.000-06:00Don't think anything about it, Tiffany!

I ended up putting down Atwood's <I>Cat Eyes</I> (so I went to book club without finishing the book in order to read the shorter <I>Wednesday Letters</I>. Forget <I>Our Man in Havana</I>! I got a reprieve on this gem! :D<BR/><BR/>Thanks Kay, for filling in the blanks. What I wrote was for the newspapers in the form of booktalk not review. I figure in Mississippi, it is better to hook'em into picking up the book than giving too much and the readers feeling they needn't read it. I was going for the Valentine angle since I write my articles 1.5/2 weeks in advance. I did so want to have them found by A&P in each other's arms, that's why I spent so much time on Anna Belle (A&P) and then used up my word count and had to rethink the whole ending. Deadline gets me everytime. ;P<BR/><BR/>Lynne, it was more satisfing than <I>CJs</I>. Put it on the stack! :Dmaggie moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462439415973311990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-75244789206367539582008-01-30T16:33:00.000-06:002008-01-30T16:33:00.000-06:00I read CHRISTMAS JARS by this author and have this...I read CHRISTMAS JARS by this author and have this one on my wish list.

It's also the story of how their 3 children come to accept the loss of their parents and go on with their lives.
