What a darling photo!
Hi, Thanks for acceptance!!!
Noticed you liked She's Come Undone, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a disturbed young girl's downward spiral and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Thanks,

I have never met a person whose greatest need was
anything other than real, unconditional love. You
can find it in a simple act of kindness toward
someone who needs help. There is no mistaking
love. You feel it in your heart. It is the
common fiber of life, the flame that heals our
soul, energizes our spirit and supplies passion to
our lives. It is our connection to God and to
each other.

- Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
i love all the authors that you do!! happy reading!
Hello. We have several favorite authors in common. That's how I found you. I just took a look at your library and gleaned several ideas for new fiction reads (including several authors that are new to me). Thanks so much!
Great to meet you! Thanks for accepting my friendship. I'm looking forward to checking out your library and I hope you enjoy mine.
Wow. I think I own almost (nearly!) all of the books you've rated thus far. I think that means we both have good taste, eh? :')
hello from New Brunswick, Canada. I just finished Runaway by Alice Munro and looked up reviews on it. I noticed that you had enjoyed it as well. I am not a great reader of short fiction but I was so taken with her characters and their lives I simply couldn't put the book down. I also really enjoyed Lives of Girls and Women by Munro. It's a novel but is really a collection of little episodes in the main girl's life which could each be a short story.

I see we have quite a few books in common. Drop by and have a browse in my library some time. How did you like The Road or have you read it yet? I was very moved by it....thought about it for days afterwards.
