I've even done a little blog-hopping! Hopefully, that means we can go a while without replacing the computer, but I think in the meantime we'll be comparison shopping. The stupid migraine keeps coming back. Change of weather. Blah. I love the weather, though. :)<br /><br />I just loved this book. I usually just toss in historical fiction, now and then, because I'm an eclectic reader and burn out way too easily if I stick too closely to one genre, so I understand that change in direction you've taken. Elizabeth Chadwick is awesome. You should definitely give her a try!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-18766541763366171592010-09-27T22:41:54.268-05:002010-09-27T22:41:54.268-05:00I hope you're feeling better soon and that you...I hope you're feeling better soon and that your computer issues get cleared up easily!<br /><br />I used to read historical fiction all of the time, but seem to have gone in a different direction with my reading since I began blogging. This book looks great though, and I've been meaning to read one of hers for a while.Alycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919057159829023714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-13885157637323800002010-09-27T15:16:56.199-05:002010-09-27T15:16:56.199-05:00Paula,

I liked it better than the first William Marshal book and I really, really liked that one. But, this time the pages just flew. <br /><br />Oh, horror about the wallpaper. I hope both our kittens will eventually calm down. One really great thing about adopting Fiona at 6 months of age was that she was already pretty close to adulthood so the worst of the kitteny destruction didn't last for long. Isabel has a long way to go before she unwinds, near as I can tell. <br /><br />Have you tried putting catnip on the scratchers to attract Snickers? I did that with both of mine and I have no trouble with Izzy scratching furniture, but she does leap onto the leather chairs using claws for balance and that's a bad, bad thing.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-70147128425743497472010-09-27T14:57:16.800-05:002010-09-27T14:57:16.800-05:00Great review Nancy.

I noticed this weekend that she is using the wall at the bottom of the stairs as her scratching post... ripped off all the wall paper.... Chester never seems to use anything other than the pole or the mat... Gotta love kittens!Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04926149489492095024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-15059468036076286832010-09-27T08:29:04.513-05:002010-09-27T08:29:04.513-05:00Les,

Same here -- I'd be lost without hubby's help on the computer. <br /><br />The cool weather is awesome!!! I'm all out of shape and will be restarting my workouts on the treadmill before I tackle our crazy hills but I can't wait to get outside for a walk. We sat outside for a long time, last night, enjoying the air. Ah, I love fall!!!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-65853636378546085452010-09-27T05:38:32.945-05:002010-09-27T05:38:32.945-05:00I was going to ask if you've defragged your co...I was going to ask if you've defragged your computer, but then I really have no idea what that means. ;) Just something my husband has said in the past. I'm so glad he knows computers. I'd be at a complete loss if mine ever started acting up and he weren't around!<br /><br />Isn't the cooler weather wonderful? I went for a long walk yesterday and it was chilly enough for sweats. Walking Annie last night felt cold enough for a down vest! Now if it could only stay like this for the next 6 months. No snow and no wind chills.

It's pretty exciting to know there's so much more great reading ahead, now that I've confirmed that Chadwick is awesome with a second read. :)<br /><br />Thanks. The cool air seemed to do my head wonders. I'm off to bed in a bit. Sleep will help, too, I'm sure! I've had a few rough nights.<br /><br />Tammy,<br /><br />Yes, I know how much you love her! OK, a little creeping envy of you with that new book. I've still got the second William Marshall book to read, though. I'll have to dash off and see if I can add to my wishlist, yet, now that I know the title of her next book.<br /><br />Are you having computer trouble, too? We cleaned the files and mine is still a mess, so I just hope it can keep going till I'm able to buy a new one. I'm pondering a Mac but wondering if I'm too old to cope with a new system. I've been using PCs, forever.<br /><br />Ooooh, I forgot about Hawaii. November, right? Fall is perfect in Hawaii. I'm so excited for you!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-62189335707902776152010-09-26T21:20:13.457-05:002010-09-26T21:20:13.457-05:00I'm so pleased to see your positive review. Yo...I'm so pleased to see your positive review. You *know* how much I love EC! I've got her next one, To Defy a King, sitting here waiting impatiently while I try to catch up on my review books.<br /><br />I hear you on the sluggish computers, too. Arrrgh.
