"Rivals for the Crown" has some shocking parts in it as well but I think it's fight scenes aren't as brutal.Laurie@The Baking Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678146631438774221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648528809470059310.post-42647289321882246852010-08-18T19:36:38.424-04:002010-08-18T19:36:38.424-04:00Hmm.

Maybe that's because I read O before I had kids and Highland Shore after having 3 babies.Mommydoodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08580191801530375442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648528809470059310.post-61270023294942675402010-08-18T17:09:24.041-04:002010-08-18T17:09:24.041-04:00I'd love to chat with you about it.

Plus, I didn't fall in love with Rory and Isabel like I did with Claire and Jamie.Laurie@The Baking Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678146631438774221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648528809470059310.post-22279137372210027072010-08-17T22:29:47.345-04:002010-08-17T22:29:47.345-04:00Thanks for reviewing this book Laurie.

Davey and Nell don't ring any bells for me. Maybe we should have a little chat about that book before I dive into this latest story.Mommydoodlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08580191801530375442noreply@blogger.com
