Save your drafts as you go! I lost a really long double review for these books due to my own negligence. Ugh…. I moved to Monterey a year and a half ago, the home of Steinbeck and the setting for both of these novels. Both take place at real locations in the greater Monterey area, though Tortilla Flat is a fictional neighborhood, which added to my interest.

A lovely surprise from ElCicco!
I am counting down the minutes until I go on Christmas vacation. MINUTES. And tonight I came home to a lovely Cannonball Book Exchange surprise. Two kinds of chocolates (one of which has already been sampled), Orbiter, and An Unkindness of Ghosts. All this, and a lovely card. I am so pleased and cannot wait to settle in and enjoy the generosity of ElCicco. Thank you!
Thanks Book Exchange Person!
I got a box of goodies!! Fun! A big thank you to my book exchange buddy and virtual neighbor. Well, we live in the same state anyway! Thanks Kfishgirl! PS Your dog is adorable!
Thank You!
This was delivered to the wrong door somehow (the address was TOTALLY right- so I’m not sure why they didn’t deliver it properly) but my lovely neighbor, to whom the amazon people wrongly delivered the package, knocked on my door yesterday and handed it over. Weird, but YAY! I got it. Anyway, thank you, I’m super excited to delve into these.
