“Happiness isn't something she spends much time thinking about. Survival, discomfort, hunger...these are the concerns that fill her days.”

Thanks, I'm glad you liked my review. I have been so busy I forgot to check this site thats it took long to reply. If you see this then send me a Private Message PM.
David,Thanks for the friend request, I look forward to reading your latest when it comes out. I'm always on the lookout for new authors, and all those you mentioned to me in your friend request are brilliant.
Good Luck!
