Like you I enjoy her books but the endings are always very diappointing, especially in her more recent books. I love that you managed to get such a great journal page out of the book though so not all bad!Mazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05234667929146953628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579859052854471360.post-56024613403714193542013-03-06T13:54:22.814+00:002013-03-06T13:54:22.814+00:00Running way behind this month but it's up now ...Running way behind this month but it's up now :)Kerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376961677961706881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579859052854471360.post-71000108657600317152013-03-05T11:07:22.090+00:002013-03-05T11:07:22.090+00:00Oh I love that you got such a happy page from the ...Oh I love that you got such a happy page from the book.

So thank you for this. PTSD seems all the rage, oddly. I mean, I understand it's serious stuff but it seems very trendy these days. Even a lady I know, who was in a small fender bender seriously thinks she's got it...and then, I know those who have it from Iraq, which is clearly a real thing. I love how you turned this not so inspiring book into a very inspiring work of art!
