It doesn't change the fact that I'm going to read it.<br /><br />I also love coming here to see what's new with your penguins.

They appear, disappear and then maybe reappear. As the sign says, one by one the penguins steal my sanity.<br /><br />Mary, that's interesting because it's hard to justify that ending without something else planned. She must have seen how many books Nora Roberts has sold and though, aha - trilogys make much more money! <br /><br />Bingo- June 9th will be a red letter day! Remember what we talked about re pulling back.

Though I really, really enjoyed it (much more than the movie), I never did get around to picking up anything else like it. Maybe I should give this a try!Ladytink_534https://www.blogger.com/profile/14317480621483829078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524582297249728998.post-87837977492233914042009-05-07T02:37:00.000-04:002009-05-07T02:37:00.000-04:00This was a really good review and you're way ahead...This was a really good review and you're way ahead of me, as usual. I'm glad you enjoyed the book that I helped to write (Yeah, right!) I was thinking the same thing that Toni commented on, that's a great way to rate a book. It's easy to sum it up and everyone can relate to it. Well, every reader can relate to it. <br /><br />I have to say, Pudgy has the cutest darn family and I just love meeting more and more of them. How many members of his family does he have helping him on the blog? :)Wrightyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16234033570150645504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8524582297249728998.post-86999428596574656122009-05-06T21:10:00.000-04:002009-05-06T21:10:00.000-04:00Kaye, I emailed the author to ask about the abrupt...Kaye, I emailed the author to ask about the abrupt ending.

Wanting to sneak away with a book rather than do other things is definitely a sign of a good one.!!Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09583701020058927481noreply@blogger.com
