That Old Cape Magic by Richard Russo

Noticed you liked Lovely Bones, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here, as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it also contains a young female narrator struggling with a series of tragic circumstances. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Hi! I am the recipient of your SantaThing gifts! Thank you so much for making two great selections. I am always happy to read more Margaret Atwood, and this will be my first Carol Shields book. I will read Larry's Party in January for my personal challenge to read books nominated for or won the Orange Prize (we call it Orange January).

I really appreciate your generosity, and thanks for participating in SantaThing. I hope you're staying warm in Mass.! =)

Happy Holidays!
Jill =)
