Glad you like the header - not as much color or sunshine this time of year though.<br /><br />jheaton - This is very different from She's Come Undone, and much shorter so not a huge time investment. I'd say go for it! Thanks for visiting.<br /><br />Staci - I think you'd keep laughing through much of the book, too!<br /><br />Karen - This is certainly a different type of book than Lamb usually writes. Maybe one to borrow from the library (like I did)?<br /><br />Kim - That is so funny!! I was laughing reading this last night, too, but still haven't had time to read today. I'm definitely a fan of Wally Lamb.
