I don't remember if the payoff was great, but the journey there was pretty interesting, from what I remember. It's one of those books that stands out in my mind.

To see her confidence in blogging about the things that were important to her and not caring. I was like if she could do it, why not me. So I took the plunge.<BR/><BR/>LissaPabasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11829424479168213018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606392701671180733.post-63229582059694915862008-05-21T15:03:00.000-05:002008-05-21T15:03:00.000-05:00Kara ~ I have to print mine out, too.

I did not get the time to browsen that I would have liked to , so I checked out two books for the historical fiction challenge.<BR/><BR/>FYI my eldest daughter who is 11, checked out three books and she is done already, wants to go back on Sat. again. Those were the days when one could read all the time.

I think library books are easier to read because they give you a deadline; the books by my bed will still be there next month.<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Barnes book.
