I wonder if it's a simple way to have a disclaimer that is like the one that says something like "Any resemblance to real people or situations is purely coincidental." <br /><br />Without a good reason like that, it seems bizarre for people using words as livelihood to clutter a title in that way.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08215431222961203620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-67298567668065485072010-06-25T21:20:03.759-07:002010-06-25T21:20:03.759-07:00Thanks for the list.

I was holding out because everyone said how great it was, and I knew I wouldn't like it. Luckily, I was wrong. Good book, huh?jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01313127576303289593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-33209599413031934382010-06-25T19:04:43.892-07:002010-06-25T19:04:43.892-07:00This is exactly what I've been looking for...a...This is exactly what I've been looking for...a list of good books to read.

At least I hope they are all on your kindle. I am enjoying reading all of Lisa Wingates books. I really do love the way she writes and her chaacters are so real....and interesting. I just finished "The Summer Kitchen." I really liked the book but I do wish she hadn't ended it quite so abruptly. I felt I wanted to know what happened to know more about what happened to some of the main characters at the end. It was a little too vague for me. I wanted to know what really happened to Cass and her brother. Did they still have to live in that crummy apartment and who was going to support them? Did I miss something here?Darlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16797132860053426517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6072583027504108914.post-12998376930004524332010-06-25T10:44:41.379-07:002010-06-25T10:44:41.379-07:00That is amazing that you read so much.
