I got so tickled – tickled pink or rather indigo! – when an author friend sent me this review she’d come across for one of my novels. I tend to avoid reviews though some authors read theirs to learn how to improve their writing. But I’ve found that what one reader loves another loathes so I don’t find them particularly …
