Journal Entry 1 by wolkenklang on Wednesday, July 30, 2008
Hilarious, not over the top, and with a certain wise touch to it, this book was a really good chick lit read.

I've liked this book. It's nothing really serious, but it is funny, and easy to read. Exactly what is needed during vacations!
I will mail it to Christoffel tomorrow.

I finally finished this book. Thanks a lot that I could keep it longer. At first, I had trouble remembering all new names that got introduced quite fast. But I kept reading, and I am glad I did! I really enjoyed the book.
The book is ready to be taken to the post office tomorrow, for it's journey to the USA.

Journal Entry 9 by thescreaming from Cumberland, Maryland USA on Monday, December 8, 2008
This arrived today. I have a book to finish and then I will start this.

By the way, I really love the box this was sent in, I wish I could find them around here. It was perfect for shipping a book.

Journal Entry 10 by thescreaming from Cumberland, Maryland USA on Monday, December 22, 2008
I finished this today. It was an enjoyable read, although it was entirely too predictable. At least the adventure there was good. I loved the subplot with Matt.

I already have krl122's address, but I won't be able to mail it off until after the New Year.

Unfortunately, I could not get into this book. I would like to give it a chance at another time--but I don't want to delay sending the book on. I'm sending it to JennyC1230 in Georgia--next in line for the bookring. Enjoy!

Journal Entry 14 by JennyC1230 from Woodstock, Georgia USA on Friday, January 23, 2009
It came in the mail today, along with a lovely bookmark! I will start reading it next.

Thank you for sharing your book solskinn!

Journal Entry 15 by JennyC1230 from Woodstock, Georgia USA on Friday, February 6, 2009
I really enjoyed this book! Katie's search to find her true love and what she wanted to do with her life, was funny and interesting. The secondary characters added a lot of fun to the mix. I will definately look for more books by this author. It's sad that the author died so young.

Journal Entry 20 by sarkiegirl from La Quinta, California USA on Thursday, April 16, 2009
ohhhhhhh boy do I have a lot of reading to do!!! This is a big book---about 500 pages!! I have a few rings in front of this, but I'm on it!! :)

Journal Entry 21 by sarkiegirl from La Quinta, California USA on Wednesday, May 13, 2009
As much as I don't want to do this, I'm going to have to stop reading. The month limit is there in a few days, and I am only on page 60!! There are 500 pages or so and I don't want to hold onto it for too long!! Maybe someday they will continue the ring and I can read it then. I got way too far behind because of the last two books. I'm waiting for an address, and as soon as I get it, I will send it out!

I just received this. When it rains, it pours. I have about 5 books in front of it, but I will make sure it gets moving along. Thanks solskinn for organizing this bookring.

Cute novel. I don't really feel it needed to be as long as it was, but I enjoyed it. It is off to Kuwait now!

Ive contacted "kirstykat" a week ago but I havent gotten any response yet. So, in order not to keep the book with me, I have contacted the next person in line and I'm waiting for a reply.

Sorry for the delay!!

Journal Entry 27 by norafrvr from Kuwait, Kuwait Kuwait on Sunday, October 11, 2009
After contacting "krl112" who asked to be skipped, I mailed the book back to "solskinn". Hopefully, the book will get there safe and sound.

Thanks for sharing this book with us :-)
