Just started reading your books.... Wow ! Im feeling majorly schmuky right now for not knowing that you were that good, and that I wasn't paying attention, since I should have known, because you are so clever, when you post.DOH!
( I am eating very a large piece of humble pie right now.) Thinking that I was such a smarty pants, myself,
NOT.
Am I forgiven?
Dear Micheal, Firstly i would like to thank you for joining my little film group here on Goodreads, which i do hope that you enjoy with the discussions. Secondly, i would also like to thank you once again for sending me 'shades of Grey' to read & review, which i enjoyed immensely. It has been a pleasure knowing you in the 'books, blogs, authors and more' group and feel free to recomend, discuss ectera. Thank you!
Lucinda Xx :)
