I wanted to update my old post on Grace Livingston Hill romances because now there are tons more options for you to be able to read her books for free online! I’m a huge Grace Livingston Hill fan. Granted, not all her books resonate with me, but there are a few that I absolutely love, like The Enchanted Barn and Crimson Roses . And the best part is that she wrote over 100 books and I haven’t yet read them all! When I have time, I like to dive into a new GLH novel. I like the fact that most of them are romances, and I especially appreciate that they all have strong Christian themes. Occasionally the Christian content is a little heavy-handed for my taste, but it’s so interesting to see what the Christian faith was like in the early part of the 20th century. These books are often Cinderella-type stories or A Little Princess (Frances Hodgson Burnett) type stories, which I love. And the best part is that they’re all set in the early 1900s, so the time period is absolutely fasci

But I have to ask--he opened your box instead of letting you do it???
That's so cool!
BTW, my review copy arrived on Friday. :-)
Congrats on your first shipment of your first published books--the first of many to come!
I loved the dedication--that line was about as sweet as any romance I've read!
Wasabi!
I just got my copy as well, and I think I scared the people in the post office when I ripped it open and screamed for joy.
I'm halfway into your novel and HAD to go out for Shushi tonight. You make me miss San Jose! :-( I totally relate to your characters and am cracking up so much!
We have been talking about your book on Shelfari on Trisha Goyer's group.
Can't wait to do your tours on FIRST and CFBA.

I just got my copy of Sushi for One about an hour ago (for CFBA) and I think what I'm going to do is read it on the plane when I go to Korea. I leave Aug. 22 and it's a mighty long flight, so I'll need something to read!
That's a lot of boxes? Newbie question: Is that typical? How many copies is that?
It varies from house to house. Some places, you get less books, some places, you get more. I got quite a lot, plus I bought 2 more boxes of books at my author cost (about 50% off, plus shipping) to sell at conferences (I can't sell the free author copies).

She told me she was expecting them and I thought she wanted to know when they arrived.
But hey...I left the other 4 boxes for her to open! :)
Congratulations on your book! I'm grabbing my cup of tea and settling back in my chair to start reading.
