Author Uses My Review on Her Website! Cool Right?

I received a nice little surprise yesterday when I discovered that Dianne Dixon, author of the awesome novel Language of Secrets placed my review on her website . I learned this juicy tidbit from a tweet her literary agent, Alice Tasman sent out. Ms. Tasman even began to follow me on Twitter and more awesome followers are always good. Thanks Alice!

Those of you who check in with me regularly will recall how fond I am of this book. I have to rank it as one of my all time favorites. It's not a happy story, but it is so well written and has an imaginative, original and intriguing premise. If you haven't read the review, check it out (March 13 post). You cannot go wrong getting this book. It's one to keep on the shelf and re-read from time to time.

Hope everyone's having a good weekend. Well, back to work on my own manuscript!

Toodles!
