    I've never read that Jacqueline Susann book - though I read another of hers years ago. Your other books look good too, especially Beyond the Waves. I haven't heard of it before but the title is intriguing!

    I just loved A Certain Slant of Light. I thought it was a really original story. I hope you love it too.

    Happy Birthday, Missy!

    Jacqueline Susann. That is a blast for your years ago memories. I didn't know she wrote more than The Valley of the Dolls. I'll look forward to your review.

    Hope you had a good birthday.
