I also read a blog post by her saying that this one was a bit more personal for her, which I found interesting.Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-64093864974595393042015-09-24T14:34:55.174-05:002015-09-24T14:34:55.174-05:00Yay!

By the end, there is usually some closure and honesty between the characters.Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-83102758739014901152015-06-29T06:12:38.750-05:002015-06-29T06:12:38.750-05:00I definitely liked it!

Though I got very frustrated about 3/4 of the way through and almost quit reading it because things had been getting happier and then went south suddenly, and I was like, "I don't want Sydney to be unhappy! I want to quit here where she's at least a little happy!" But then I realized I only had like 80 pages left to read, so I quick chowed through the rest, and I'm glad I did :-)<br /><br />Working on a review of it for my blog now.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-4743104583716540042015-06-23T23:57:10.455-05:002015-06-23T23:57:10.455-05:00Oh awesome, I'd love to hear what you think af...Oh awesome, I'd love to hear what you think after reading it!Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-57029700574442803212015-06-23T15:27:18.551-05:002015-06-23T15:27:18.551-05:00This finally came in at the library for me, so I&#...This finally came in at the library for me, so I'll be starting it in a day or so.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-71217224683924885852015-05-28T23:19:48.763-05:002015-05-28T23:19:48.763-05:00Yay!

It would be an interesting change.Reading in the Darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13812641480668564435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1384181549956914712.post-16747342935444957102015-05-28T21:12:29.440-05:002015-05-28T21:12:29.440-05:00This sounds quite awesome!
