Sometimes I find a book that keeps me company at night, pages turning, turning, turning until the early morning light. Every book, every time fills my mind with thoughts and wonder and just occasionally draws me in, therein to wander. If I come home remembering the people on the page as if they were my kith and kin then and only then I know that I am touched by magic and long for more.

I have everyvbook she's written in all her pseudonyms. I love all her characters and just sigh in wonder by each book's end. <br />The 4 books I mentioned in my post are particular stories that made me sob the most! There was just that something extra that pulled at me in such a strong way. It may be the subject matter of the plots because those are things I feel very strongly about.Enisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14618040099949009436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603806150366948575.post-29768831298106116392015-08-28T22:41:47.514+10:002015-08-28T22:41:47.514+10:00We're all different, Enisa, but I'm biased...We're all different, Enisa, but I'm biased. Just mention Anne Gracie and you'll have me raising my hand. Anne gives it all, the highs, the lows, and everything in between. It's because she does the lows so well that I find I'm breathing a sigh of relief, and laughing along with the heroine. <br /><br />I'll repeat. We're all different, and for me that means I'm not going to give you any one book in particular. I'm just giving you my favourite author. I have everything she's written and it's been wonderful to watch her writing journey. As for "Tallie's Knight", I had to have 2 copies of that. After all, there was a boxed editiion of the put out at RWA and the winning novels were in it. However, there's no way I was relinquishing my earlier copy. The only thing I don't have is a third copy which has just come out in reprint, but I'm being generous and leaving those copies for readers who haven't had a taste of Anne's stories.Robyn Aldridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13907405441285861450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603806150366948575.post-22627248413327004272015-08-28T14:06:23.530+10:002015-08-28T14:06:23.530+10:00Hi Nicole.

I love the thought of our readers finding our posts interesting and entertaining; it's a great way of connecting with people we may never meet in real life.<br />As for books that kept me reading till the last page, Outlander pulled me in hook, line and sinker from beginning to end. I know Diana Gabaldon doesn't like to have it categorized as a romance, but it is to me.Marilyn Forsythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17264683453138649702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2603806150366948575.post-11353868073581559772015-08-28T08:09:50.952+10:002015-08-28T08:09:50.952+10:00Congratulations Diane.
