Hi Britt,
ReplyDeleteI stumbled upon your blog this evening and was delighted that you read my novel (Saving CeeCee Honeycutt) and gave it 5 stars. Thank you so much!
Aw, thanks, Beth.
ReplyDeleteActually when I finished your book I demanded my friend read it. :) She loved it too.
Small Change and The Secret Life of Bees are among my all-time favorite books - as is Doomsday Book, which you seemed to like as well as I did!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to pick those two up.
ReplyDeleteLOVED Doomsday Book... really anything Connie Willis is awesome. :)
