Journal Entry 1 by mrsjones from Hamilton, Ohio USA on Tuesday, March 09, 2004

My mother passed this on for me to release as part of BC RACE TO A MILLION And Release Challenge.

She enjoyed it, but not as much as Bridges of Madison County by the same author. 

Journal Entry 2 by mrsjones at Avenue Cafe in Mason, Ohio USA on Tuesday, March 09, 2004

Released on Tuesday, March 09, 2004 at Avenue Cafe in Mason, Ohio USA.

Kind of a themed release - the book and restaurant both have the word "Cafe" in them. :)

I'm releasing the book tonight when I go for dinner. Probably in the Women's restrooms. 

Journal Entry 3 by guinaveve from Mason, Ohio USA on Tuesday, March 09, 2004

I was so excited to find this book. Today I had one of my wild releases found (first time) and I caught a wild release (also first time). I went to find this book and found my post-it-note from a book I recently released on it. We practically traded books.
I have read Bridges of Madison County and enjoyed it. I am sure I will also enjoy this one. Thanks.

Journal Entry 7 by guinaveve from Mason, Ohio USA on Wednesday, March 24, 2004

My mom gave this back to me, and I just finished it. I liked it okay. Sometimes short stories are great and the author wrote of things he was passionate about and used wonderful prose. As in any collection of short stories, I was much more intersted in some without much enthusiasum for others. All in all it was a good book.

Reserved to give away at the May '02 mom's meeting.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

RELEASE NOTES:

Left on a bench in the middle of the restaurant.

This book was much better than I expected. The essays were very sweet and it made it even a better experience knowing that the people Robert Waller was writing about were people he knew in his own life.
