I will still be taking part. I have holds on ebook and audiobook and if neither of them move forward (which they usually do) I'll spend a credit towards the end of the author focus
Looks like my library hold will be available mid-May. I will join in when comes through 🙂
I started it last night , am about 119 pages in, and loving it. It is very character driven. Some reviewers call it slow and boring. I prefer to think of it as reflective and growing. These girls are learning a lot about themselves.
Yay - glad to hear the good take, Gail.In the meantime, for those of us working on developing patience, this is an 8 minute clip (ad break in the middle - I'm sorry) of a very light, fluffy and charming interview she did on Seth Meyers' show last month. and it's just the most delightful exchange. And her dress! she's seriously beautiful and fun and - that dress! What a joy it must be to have her as your professor.
