I think when you get used to a certain kind/level of writing anything less is quite unsatisfying.

I feel like the Baxters are a part of my family. LOL!

By the way, what do you all do with your books after you read them? Do you keep them? Donate them? or do you always borrow them so don't own them anyway??
I've been taking any books I buy over and donating them to our church library. In fact, now that Keith is older, I'm fixin' to take about 40 Adventures In Odyssey cassette tape sets over and donate them, too. We've got lots of younger kids who will enjoy them now.

Scott, are you thinking of donating them to our church library?? We'd be glad to take them. and I'd be very happy to reimburse postage for you.
But let me ask first, do you have a library at your church??
Seriously, tho. We'd LOVE to have them  We have lots of younger girls who all enjoy reading.

I haven't read a good novel in awhile. Everytime I get engrossed in something good, I get interrupted by one of three munchkins, sometimes all three at once, lay the book down, and never pick it up again. I try to read late at night, but it makes me sleepy....

My last book by Karen Kingsbury was about a very young girl who was kidnapped and chained in a basement for several years. I cannot remember the name. I didn't enjoy the nature of the story, because of the detailed account of what took place while she was being held captive.
Jeanette Oke and Traci Peterson and Cathrine Palmer are very good authors. Redeeming Love by Francene Rivers was a real tear jerker in a good way. Sophie's Heart by Lori Wick was very good also. I enjoy all of Beverly Lewis and anyone who writes about the Amish community. I appreciate all the input.

She has a new one (besides the Baxter series) called Dandelion Dust that is really good.

I keep all the good ones, because I read them over and over. Eddie thinks that's so funny, but I always get something new from them.
