I chuckled over Ezra almost being named Tubal and was ready to keep reading. I am going to see if I can get the library here to order the electronic version of her book. I don't own a Kindle myself, but can download from the library onto our phone. Thanks so much Donna for introducing your friend and a new to me author. And, Anita…best of luck in the future with your writing! love and prayers, jepAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-27161726514033826012014-01-24T14:05:58.693-06:002014-01-24T14:05:58.693-06:00Why yes!!!

I’m excited to hear we’ll have the opportunity down the road to read more of Phillip and the folks of the small town (Barley, Wisconsin) Anita has created. It’s a great read and I’m proud to know her, too.

But I read the sample last night and just *had* to hit the little button to buy the book. And then there was some insomnia at 4:00 where I delved further into the book. <br /><br />And now I'm on chapter 14 and I have to leave the house and do other things. That's why I'm dying. I love Anita's descriptions: ricocheting sunrays, town clung to several steep hills, sun relaxing behind a threadbare curtain of clouds. <br /><br />Congratulations, Anita! You ARE an inspiration!
