[Magdalen] Good Read

[Lynn Ronkainen]

I 'found' JP the year my youngest went to College. I was whiling away some 
time during her freshman orientation (campus 11 hours from home and I had 
driven here there for the 3 days and I had a LOT of free time) and I picked 
up one of her books in the Barnes and Nobel on-campus book store. I got at 
least half way through it and came home and bought it to finish!... I have 
read many of her books, but not for a while.  She typically picks very 
socially relevant subject matter and works it out through her characters. 
I'll look for this one (I have three I picked up at our book exchange at the 
condo community where I live... that I've not yet read - I know they are 
older ones).

single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me."
