Bobbie said:
"This was a quick read with very little depth. I don't think the characters were well developed and I found both the language and the situations to be a bit trite. Add to that a disappointing ending and I can only come up with 2 stars.

"If the book had ended after Section 1, I would have rated it 5 stars. However, I felt that the rest of the book was boring and seemed to ramble on and on. I stopped reading with about 50 pages left.

"I found the book to be enjoyable, but a little slow moving and predictable. The valuable lesson of "picking yourself up and getting back on the horse" is an important one, yet sometimes it can be a bit overdone.

Hi, Bobbie - Thanks for sending me a friend request. When I checked your profile, the picture of you dressed as a fairy made me smile. I've always been fond of fairies.

I was supposed to send this message with your invitation....yes well....I am not so good with computer skills (which is pretty evident)....so here it is!
Greetings from England!
I am sorry I have been so busy on promotions and rarely get the pleasure to indulge myself on this site but I just wanted to invite you personally to listen to the BBC, who invited both myself and 8 Joni-Pip avids to appear on their show Go4it!
It's probably impossible to listen to the BBC in your neck of the woods but I wanted to invite you anyway.
I hope all is going spiffingly with you!
