Interspersed throughout her entertaining and heart-wrenching personal stories are little excerpts from her novels which were appetizers for the real thing. It really shines a different light on an author's works when they talk about their inspirations and experiences behind their novels. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/160881?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
