From Diana Stege, Santa Fe, New Mexico:

I am in awe of your writing, creating characters, working through situations and more. I confess I had trouble getting through the first chapters, but it's necessary to get Kat pregnant and get the story underway.

You create honest characters and reasonably authentic situations.... You give us thoughtful plot twists.

You bring your characters along by revealing Matt and Kat's happy marriage and by mentioning the dark-haired girl at the right times.... It's a successful novel and a remarkable first novel. It deserves attention and praise.

From C.K. Stephens, Gainesville, Georgia:

Drum roll....your book was a wild ride through the 70's.... I romped through it when I needed a welcome escape from my current reality, so a whole weekend was pretty much dedicated to reading it. I sure had fun.
