I have reviewed This is How in my library (not in my 1010 challenge though). I thought it was well-written but very bleak. I'm going to try another one of her books. I would say that if you didn't know the author was a woman, then it isn't a typically female book at all and I wonder if that is why she uses her initials rather than her name.

Yes, I did get This is How through the Early Reviewers progam. I intend to start reading it today so will let you know what i think later in the week.

I didn't finish my 999 , but I did finish my NaNoWriMo :-) It's not ready for publication though :-) You'll probably never get to read it, just as 99,999999% of the world population. It's kind of crap, but I like it. Don't know if it will ever be ready for print, but I'll let you know if it is ;-)

As for my 999: too bad, I just missed an Australian book. I lost interest somewhere in november. I won't be doing a 101010. Too difficult. I'll off course follow yours :-) Good luck, and all the best for 2010!

Thanks.
I did not know about this book, but now I have ordered it from amazon. Looking forward to read it.

hi Lunar,

i just went to over to the 999 challenge compiler and chose those who had something close to an "author" interest...perhaps there was something in ur post which struck me somehow.

we will be happy to have u in the group even if u decide to just be a lurker at first :-) see u there!
