Noticed you liked The Glass Castle, 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's also about a dysfunctional family (and also a bit dark). 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). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Hi Star!

Thanks for your note. I haven't tried Sarah Andrews yet but I plan a trip to the library for tomorrow so I'll look for her.

I love the National Parks aspect of Nevada Barr's books but I confess I also love Anna Pigeon. What a great character, don't you think?
