It's an eye catching cover (the paperback not quite as much, in my opinion).Janssenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178196211079230972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-183222708163641034.post-46995035689975192232012-03-01T19:15:55.779-08:002012-03-01T19:15:55.779-08:00No, no!

It's a very good point you make about being able to tell what happened without it taking us to a place where it is all too much. If you think Civil Rights Era had horror stories ask Corey to tell you about the literature he was required to read for a class that detailed the plight of African Americans in the 1920's. He has a much larger threshold than I do for sadness and "gory details," but those books were just unbelievable. The times were unbelievable. <br /><br />Have you seriously not read To Kill A Mockingbird though?!? Alysa! I am going to have to get on my soap box for you the next time we talk... That book changed my life! Really!<br /><br />Although... it sounds like the next time I will see you will include some type of present for me, so I am inclined to let you off easily.<br /><br />Thanks for the great post.Ashleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01926159543041501421noreply@blogger.com
