...Irene, thanks so much! Heart failure is right. :)<br /><br />Heather, I always hate it when the end nears and the pages left to read dwindle. Part of me whispers, "Read slower. Make it last." The other part yells, "What happens next? Turn the page!"<br /><br />Tamara, I like that take on negative reviews. I'd rather be swept away, too. :)<br /><br />Elena, I love that, too. Living the book is the best. :)Hermana Mawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15743516008894676257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6264319397911620864.post-50249688368107020112011-01-28T07:45:04.058-07:002011-01-28T07:45:04.058-07:00I always like to forget I'm reading a book.I always like to forget I'm reading a book.Elena Solodowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03037029195682225565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6264319397911620864.post-88313934104051744542011-01-27T20:40:41.210-07:002011-01-27T20:40:41.210-07:00I was thinking about that the other day too.

Really, we want to fall in love w/ something new that sweeps us away and makes us forget its not real.Tamara Hart Heinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07562765111202443160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6264319397911620864.post-29994623754463479772011-01-27T17:11:11.624-07:002011-01-27T17:11:11.624-07:00I want characters I love, a villain I hate, and a ...I want characters I love, a villain I hate, and a story that I don't want to end.Heather Hellmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09181976810034907941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6264319397911620864.post-51974201527113979302011-01-27T16:18:04.238-07:002011-01-27T16:18:04.238-07:00We're almost twinners, Leisha.

In fact I feel like part of me is missing if I don't have a book with me -- almost like heart failure.<br /><br />Thanks for reminding us of both the magic of birthdays, but also of books.<br /><br />YOU are magical with your writing, too.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />IreneIrene B.

I want to be dazzled by characters that I come to love/hate, and can reasonably compare to someone I know. I want to go on a journey into another life/culture/place and feel like I learned something. I want to reach the end of the story and go 'aaah', because it's so satisfying. That's not too much to ask, is it?Jonene Ficklinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13414949303542133724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6264319397911620864.post-65433717306460393952011-01-27T09:20:14.497-07:002011-01-27T09:20:14.497-07:00Stacy, the ones that end badly tick me off.

Because I read a lot of historicals I also like to be transported to another time and place. I want challenge and conflict and emotion, but it darn well better end happily! :)Stacy Henriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03303383087338174942noreply@blogger.com
