Loved, loved, loved them! |

Knightnfrees and I actually met Mr. Fforde once at a book signing. Seemed like a nice guy. I think Knight has some souveniers. |

| SuzieQ Fri 8/11/2006 6:57a | Twelve Sharp - ah, the book of Ranger (as the lady at Barnes & Noble called it when I asked for it). I hadn't thought about it, but you're right! She didn't destroy any cars! |

| Tinkerbell819 Fri 8/11/2006 9:22a | Yes, Suzieq...the lady at Barnes and Noble had it pegged! It bothered me a bit that some dope could pull all of that stuff on Ranger...I know it's fiction...it just seemed out of character. I did enjoy Grandma and Lula singing in the band, however! |

| LVBelle Fri 8/11/2006 12:26p | I finished Marley and Me early this morning when I couldn't sleep. Great book but not one to read when you're completely hormonal unless you want to be crying!

| SuzieQ Fri 8/11/2006 1:32p | Yeah, I thought about that, too. How could a wannabe outsmart Ranger? Ah well, it was a fun read! |
