Thank you very much for your kind words!...Cecilia:<br /><br />Thank you very much for your kind words! I always do to be balanced in my reviews and to discuss what I did and did not like about a book. As I mentioned in the final paragraph, I think this was more a mismatch between book and reader - <i>Vigil</i> just wasn't what I typically read, and I think others would enjoy it a lot more. But I am glad you liked my review because I certainly didn't mean for it to be too negative.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11058705381647529328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5687975489922145220.post-76619723816864124782009-08-14T10:36:19.851-04:002009-08-14T10:36:19.851-04:00Dear E.L.

(I'm the author)While I understand that there were many aspects of the novel you took exception with, it was very refreshing to read such a thoughtfully balanced discourse. I believe that yours is the kind of review that offers benefits not just to your readers, but to authors as well, and I for one am delighted to have been one of them, and I want to do what I can to encourage good, albeit not positive, reviews such as yours.<br /><br />Best,<br />CeciliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
