A book that I recently acquired for the purposes of giving it away. I read it a while ago and REALLY LOVED IT, so now I am recommending it and giving it away to everyone I know. In this case, Melydia is having a birthday. I must emphasize that I absolutely adore everything that I have read by this author, although this one might be my favorite. It might also violate Melydia's number one rule of books (I don't remember for sure).

Happy Birthday Melydia! Sorry it is not the book you were half expecting/half dreading. Maybe next year.

Received for my birthday from my dear friend 6of8, who loved it. She included a packet of Kleenex with it so I know what to expect. Thank you!
