Oops Liz said about the blog that on the that last book review that I read, but yours is a clean style also and even if Liz didn’t say it, I agree with it. 🙂

I’m not great with grammar, but it makes me feel good that I loved this book as maybe I am more privy to good writing technique than I thought. I loved this good fun easy read. It was light, mysterious, and romantic and took me on an adventure…everything I hope for in a book. Loved your review. Agree with Liz on the clean look of your blog.

In reply to Margot. You got it! I'll be there! I'd love to meet you. You've got an impressive blog. Both the appearance and writing are very clean.

In reply to Liz Adair. Thanks for the comment, Liz. I look forward to meeting you in person sometime...perhaps at Storymakers?

Thanks for your review. I appreciated your comments on my writing and also your comments on the students’ awareness of the superintendent. I hadn’t thought of that when I wrote the book, simply because, as a teenager in remote or very small (graduating class of 13) school districts, I was very aware of the superintendent of schools. Mandy would have come from a situation like that of you and your daughter (or like me when I taught school in a large CA district), and this would have been another cultural clash.

It’s great to see the book from another angle. Thanks again.

BTW, I’ve been having a tussle getting a comment posted. I kept hitting enter after I filled in a cell, and I think I may have posted several blanks. Old dogs and new tricks, you know.
