It's an honor to have you here! I have to say, both your book and the next I am reviewing have me re-thinking my point scale. Just because a book isn't great on the mommy scale, doesn't mean it's not a really great book. I do want to continue to rate on these areas, but the average point scores listed in the title are sometimes deceptive! :) Thanks so much for stopping by, Melanie! It’s an honor to have you here!

A six on the busy mommy scale seems pretty high to me. I don't know how moms do anything but mom. So, hats off and a big fat thanks for the review and the link love. I'm glad you enjoyed My Soul to Keep, but- 8.5? Do I get any xtra points for degree of difficulty?? I had a lot of migraines when I was writing this one... I'm glad you appreciated the lack of gratuitous violence or ... whatever writers do to hook you in and freak you out. I like suspense, not gore. Always, the suffering in my stories is told with respect and most often in hindsight or (in this case) with one degree of separation between you and the person in question (Nicholas). I have two friends whose mothers were murdered. They don't find such things to be a source of entertainment. I've taken that to heart. Peace to you. Thanks again for taking the trouble to post a review. Bloggers rock the world. We writers need you! MW Hey Lundie. A six on the busy mommy scale seems pretty high to me.
