I hope you enjoy it!<br /><br />Greg - Maybe that was more what she was doing there, I wasn't really sure, but that makes more sense.

Sasha re-connects with Dean via Facebook - ha!Greg Zimmermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08122230426442946518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1032308252123319247.post-38275501584021646202011-05-03T09:26:40.776-05:002011-05-03T09:26:40.776-05:00I'm glad to hear the book won you over!

And I completely agree that what we take away from a book is just as valid as what the author intended to write into it.Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1032308252123319247.post-3449002031259056932011-05-02T21:42:53.686-05:002011-05-02T21:42:53.686-05:00Oh, wow, I'm glad everyone is planning to read...Oh, wow, I'm glad everyone is planning to read this soon!
