Awesome work on coordinating the results, Sarah! Thanks so much!
And thank you everyone. I'm envious about half of your swaps and am looking forward to reading my own! =D Very fun.
Thank you again Sarah for hosting... I can't wait to get started on my partner Lisa's choice. :)
I can't believe how huge my book is! :)
I hope you got yours, and thanks again!
Terri's choice for me, "Water for Elephants," was excellent. I enjoyed it thoroughly. The writing is top-notch; the author actually knows HOW to "show, not tell."
There were some "R-rated" parts, but they were within context of the story and I didn't find them over indulgent.
Highly recommended.
