I'm not the only one right? Sometimes i feel like I'm cheating >__>

Gosh! Another series I've been meaning to get to. I even bought the first couple on audio, when they went on sale. Alas, I haven't gotten to them yet.
I haven't read any manga, but I have a couple I plan on checking out from the library.

I like the Highland Guard series, haven't read any other works of Monica McCarty but will check it out.

Oh, that's cool. What was the presentation about Lisa?

Well, it was for a Community Health Nursing class. We looked at the foster care system aspect; alcoholism; how a family copes when one family member is in prison; violence; suicide; etc. We (it was a team project) also had to compare the book to the movie.

Tethered by Amy MacKinnon
The Surrogate by Judith Henry
Wall
Children of Liberty by Paullina Simons
Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier
and today I started Claimed by the Highland Warrior by Michelle Willingham

Yea I can see why the book would be used for a presentation of that sort. How did the book and movie compare? I haven't seen the movie so I'm just curious.

It has been so long that I can't really remember, other than the book was better, of course. But Michelle Pfeiffer was awesome in a different role for her (she played the mom).

I've been slowly rereading the entire series but when a new book comes out I just have to skip ahead to it!

I like it a lot... it can get a little slow, but if you saw the movie, you have the hope every time you turn the page.

Hmm...I may try to check that out.
Today, I'm going to start



I cried and cried though that book, Leslie. Especially the first chapter.










But because I've been travelling for weeks, I haven't had much time to get through them!
