Some of the things they do aggravate me, but I can't help but love them. :)<br /><br />Have a blessed day!<br /><br />SusanSusan J.

How each of us react to a character depends on our own personalities, experiences, etc." really blessed me because I've never really thought about that before. There is a wide range of diversity in readers' reactions to this Scarlett O'Hara-type character, and since I just LOVE Charity, I never understood why others didn't, especially by end of book. Thanks for your insight!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />JulieJulie Lessmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406395645316139292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2252285009517721143.post-59040818296365157642009-05-13T08:29:00.000-04:002009-05-13T08:29:00.000-04:00Good Morning, Jess -

It's a tribute to Julie that she can evoke both negative and positive emotions in the reader. It means her characters are true to life.<br /><br />How each of us react to a character depends on our own personalities, experiences, etc. I think she did a great job with the story. The title says it all, "A Passion Redeemed."<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Susan :)Susan J.

Thanks for the review. :-)Jessica Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12365768876905444157noreply@blogger.com
