I definitely agree with your assessme...Thanks McB! I definitely agree with your assessment of their portrayal. I think you'll feel the same about the "potato book" once you get into it. It takes a little bit to get familiar with the format and style, but once you do, it is fantastic! Can't wait for you to read it!!!Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04699489340381107367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419999058202648799.post-48310694363138520302009-10-10T17:52:31.765-05:002009-10-10T17:52:31.765-05:00Why certainly I will share my thoughts! :)
I'...Why certainly I will share my thoughts! :)<br /><br />I've been a slacker reader for the past couple years (Which makes me very sad, I'm working on it.) and read this in 3 days. I would come home from work and read until I absolutely had to go to bed. I was possessed. I don't know why, exactly, it's not like a mystery thriller, but I just became enchanted with Alice and had to know how it all turned out. <br /><br />My big concern going into the book was that I'm a little more conservative than liberal. Bush isn't the greatest president by any means and I'm glad he's out of office now, but I didn't want to read a book that would just tear him to shreds because I think he's better than that. And most of all, I have always really liked Laura and thought she was a total class act, so I didn't want to see her dragged through the mud either. But it didn't. I think it represented them both as good, kind-hearted people, who did the best they could in impossible situations where very little is black and white.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16209821789476262691noreply@blogger.com
