Rebecca asked Catherine Ryan Hyde:

Catherine, Given our current climate in a country so divided, lacking leadership that inspires & provides hope, escaping into your books is literally a life saver. I wanted to express my deep gratitude for your work. Every one of your novels I've hugged to my chest & thanked for giving me a place to go where the best of humanity exists. Your characters relationships remind me of the best things in life. (?)

Catherine Ryan Hyde Hi Rebecca. I can't tell you how deeply moved I was by your comments, and how much they made my morning. I'm painfully aware, as I think we all are, of how important it is to mitigate our current stresses and worries and to try to fee grounded and sane. That my books could be that in someone's life makes it all worthwhile. I promise to keep writing, and I believe better days are ahead. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me. Be well.
