Thanks for the reply about Heart of Diamonds. Isn't this the one on the ER list for this month? I didn't make the connection when I requested it. I guess I will have a 2nd LT author in my library soon--because if I don't "win" it on Early Review it's one I plan to buy. It sounds very intriguing and the Congo connection makes it a "must read." As I recall it will be available fairly soon--can't wait!

Don't know what "author chat" is but I will look for it and if possible try to be there on the 22nd.
Your book sounds very interesting. I was in Zimbabwe last year and a friend of mine is often in the Congo because his girlfriend is an aid worker there. He told me recently a Spanish girl walked into a NP by herself and hasn't been seen since - have you heard about that?
Hiya, Dave. (Did I just say, "Hiya"?!)
I'm doing much better; went back to work this past Wednesday, just in time to spend the last 3 days of school with my babies. Within 90 minutes of my return, 3 of my little boys decided that drinking hand-sanitizer was a great idea. The one who actually swallowed a mouthful had to go to the hospital to get his stomach pumped. (Insert eye roll here). Well, at least teaching's not boring. :)
