I'm glad that my book has touched you the way it did - It's quite an emotional experience for me as a writer, and so glad that it found its way to your beautiful soul :)Junying Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06949797617629620982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056162936481787793.post-69996842205212018552012-10-22T13:58:33.612+02:002012-10-22T13:58:33.612+02:00Hi Mariam and Juning.
Great review and well dese...Hi Mariam and Juning. <br /><br />Great review and well deserved. As I was reading, I was nodding along. Junying is most definitely an author to watch out for. The realistic approach to not only her writing but her characters as well, makes this a chilling account of the atrocities against innocent people who are essentially naive in believing, and hoping, that perhaps the grass really is greener on the other side. Fingers can't and shouldn't be pointed in their direction, because we all hope for something better at some point in our lives. <br /><br />I sound very dreary, but this story affected me down deep in my soul.<br /><br />All the best to you both.<br /><br />SandraBeautyAttitudeYouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02851375765765751859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7056162936481787793.post-47551575766481390662012-10-22T10:37:15.591+02:002012-10-22T10:37:15.591+02:00It's my great pleasure, Junying!
