One of my favourite all time reads is "Without Reservations - Travels of an Independent Woman" by Alice Steinbach. There are paragraphs I read, then re-read, just for the pure pleasure of beautifully constructed sentences! Ahhhh, the wonders of the written word!

But lucky you for being asked to review it. I also was enticed by Karen's mini review and waited with baited breath for April 29th to arrive so that I could order it. Nine more days of work and then I can relax and turn the pages. I can't wait.
