I picked this up at the Champaign County Humane Society Garage sale (held every Memorial Day weekend). Grabbed a wide variety of genres, many of which I am not personally intersted in reading
(others I haven't the time). I'm releasing around town to spread reading & encourage people to join bookcrossing.

A bookcrossing group is forming in Champaign-Urbana. Interested? Intriqued? Want some free pop & cookies? See Chambana Bookcrossers for information on us & our next meeting.

Released on Thursday, December 09, 2004 at about 11:00:00 AM BX time (GMT-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada) at McKinley Health Center, 1109 S Linclon Avenue in Urbana, Illinois USA.

RELEASE NOTES:

Sitting next to the computer in the back of preventive medicine waiting room.

These are confusing journal entries. Not the first one--that's almost certainly where and when I got it. The release is surprising, given it's still on my bookshelf! I don't know if I marked the wrong book released or if I found it still there a couple weeks later and brought it back home.

Either way, I have it and it kept looking just interesting enough I put it back on the shelf whenever I went to release it. I decided I was tired of this so I finally read it.

It was not a bad bit of fluff, but I really didn't need to store it for over a decade. There was a bit too much stuff going on in it-the medical diagnosis at the end seemed merely convenient--the author had written herself into a corner and that was a way out, but I found it a bit over the top on top of everything else.

Maddie's ex-husband was creepy (intentional, but successful). The characters were all good. I just found the story had too much in it to get pulled into any of it.

Set this out in the morning, was gone when I was next by. Enjoy!
