message 101: by Lark (new)

Lark Benobi (larkbenobi) | 197 comments Posting here today feels kind of like picking up popcorn after the movie is over but honestly, wasn't it great to have Nozlee drop by? I really learned a lot. I'm so happy she took the time. The responses were so thoughtful and the links she posted in response to some of our questions were so interesting too. I loved the three links to author reactions when their books were eliminated--especially Celeste Ng's tweet: "I read this between my fingers." I disliked her novel but now at least I feel bad about it

It was really great! Even more fun than I thought it would be.

Just like every day of the ToB for us West Coasters, I'm late to the party. Thanks to all of you wonderful TOB group members for asking everything I wanted to know, like I knew you would! Thanks to Nozlee for giving us her time and a peek behind the scenes.

Poingu, I didn't like Ng's book, either, but I appreciate that she was a good sport.

Heather (hlynhart) | 410 comments I loved Nozlee's Q and A also, even though I only lurked, and I really liked Ng's novel. Just wanted to throw that out there because I feel like it's one of those "universally disliked TOB novels" around these parts and I wanted to show it a little love, particularly after reading Ng's tweet that Nozlee linked to!

Beverly | 300 comments I am also late to the party.
This is my first year with TOB.
I so enjoyed the question and answer session Nozlee.
I appreciated her taking the time to provide some insightful answers.
I learned a lot!

I too liked Ng's book.

Jane from B.C. (janethebookworm) | 49 comments As I was at work on Monday, I was unable to do more than read through the Q&A here last night. It was very enlightening.

Thanks for all the awesome submitted questions and to those of you that could be online for the Q&A and also to Nozlee for making herself available to our little 'fan club'.

Melanie Greene (dakimel) | 241 comments This was a fabulous thread. I knew it was coming but got so buried with work at the end of Feb that I forgot to check it out until it was mentioned in today's TOB commentary - so glad they posted the link.
