Hmm, it’s still doing it. In fact, when I put my cursor anywhere on a post I get a yellow background that pops up and any link goes right into the little window to edit it. LOL, I could have fun with that if I were a different person!

I did have to copy and paste, and found out I wasn’t far off the mark with the comments in that blog review. How the hell did that even get published? I know people who write better than that and keep getting rejection letters. Go figure.

How come none of your links work? When I click them I get a box to revise the comments. Don’t think that’s how it’s supposed to be. And I’m curious what you linked up!

It’s only my second DNF, so your shock is not surprising! LOL. Without knowing what’s at the end of your link there, I don’t mind if authors are someone else, but when I read a book like this, it doesn’t bode well for another whole set of books on the market.

I actually forgot to put in the review that her website is horrible. Only a bio and an “antique room” to click characters and objects from the book. Holy hell, if reading about them ain’t all that great, who wants to go looking at them like that? I’d rather have found an excerpt and info on upcoming books (not that I’m going to read them) and other “normal” info you should be able to find on authors’ sites! Very, very frustrating.

"and fashion, and in fact, she put this to good use when she wrote two historical novels under another name some years ago. Delving into world myths and folklore led to an interest in the theme of the werewolf and the vampire, which seem to be quite widespread around the globe." DRIVES me NUTS so I don't read her. I think I decided to stop reading all authors that tell me they are someone else but than don't tell you who they were. Either don't bother to say it - or do and tell me. Don't tease, tis not nice. Still shocked you had a DNF. If it makes you feel better you aren't the only one... and I am sure there are others out there who lurve it
