I really like the sound of this - ensemble cast of characters, with links to each other's lives etc. It also sounds very short and as my physical reading has taken a big knock over recent years this kind of book length might help me get back into it. (Btw, I managed to get a set of second hand Mignon G. Eberhart books from eBay a little while ago, although I haven't read any yet.)

Thank you for watching. I think you might like this one. Especially as the chapters function a bit like short stories, so you can dip into it as you get back into reading. I really liked it. Oooh! That's exciting! Which ones did you get? Please send me reccomendations if they're good? Also, you influenced me to buy a silkstone Barbie this week! he he. (It's the new one with the platinum blonde swirl ponytail)
