Maybe its because I am a relatively new blogger, but then on the other hand, have been an avid reader for many, many years, but I loved this book when I reviewed it in Feb. Matter of fact Mr. Walker and 2 other writers are my favorite debut authors of this year. I felt that I was "transported" into the story line and the characters took on a "real life" quality. This is one aspect as to why book blogging/reviewing is great. We get to discuss with each other about the same books we have read. Am a new follower and look forward to your future postings.<br /> CMashCMashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02127437807115591580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434452527977390355.post-76387454449717179662010-07-27T12:11:07.125-04:002010-07-27T12:11:07.125-04:00It's too bad this one was so predictable.It's too bad this one was so predictable.Alycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919057159829023714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434452527977390355.post-79994694570820790422010-07-27T11:04:12.951-04:002010-07-27T11:04:12.951-04:00Hmm...well since I have plenty of other books to...Hmm...well since I have <em> plenty </em> of other books to read, I'll pass.
