Just a couple of my favorite lines that came right at the begining of the book:<br /><br />".......always finding the one book I wanted--and then three more I hadn't known I wanted."<br /><br />"I can't think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I can't talk to, or worse, someone I can't be silent with."<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this book with all of us, and thanks to your Mom for giving it to me.Sharlene, Mom, Grammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13903786258191777810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137365445948746115.post-14299470666580972312009-05-31T22:17:03.646-07:002009-05-31T22:17:03.646-07:00this was such a great book. i love the last quote...this was such a great book. i love the last quote you included from the author becuase it says better then i could what i love about fiction. how you can get so engrossed in these characters lives that you have a better empathy for some of the hisrtorical tragedies you read about. <br /><br />does that sound dumb?? bryan and i have been arguing about the validity of fiction vs non so. . .salty c-snakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199620447507331362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137365445948746115.post-25146189229138349622009-05-28T14:01:25.165-07:002009-05-28T14:01:25.165-07:00I'm alittle over 1/3 through reading this book (wh...I'm alittle over 1/3 through reading this book (which was a gift from your Mom).
