I like this especially: "I'm still having trouble in some ways defining the relationships with online friends, especially since we read about each other, almost like characters in a book."<BR/><BR/>Isn't that the truth? And even down to the fact of the things a writer leaves unsaid. The reader of blogs knows only what the writer chooses to tell. A writer may talk about recipes for example, without mentioning the fact of four divorces. Or there may be great grief hidden behind a bright and breezy writing style. And of course there are some writers who are pretty much the same in a blog as in 'real' life.

I enjoyed Dewey's review as well, and it was nice to see her reflections on it included here.Melwykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885378201188978664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088702729460953718.post-17839238776183043242009-03-01T16:57:00.000-04:002009-03-01T16:57:00.000-04:00Excellent review and the blending of Dewey's thoug...Excellent review and the blending of Dewey's thoughts as well. I just really started to get into book blogging when Dewey passed away. Thanks for bringing her back to life for those of us that didn't get a chance to know her!! I'm going to have to read this book now!!Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600979915661464945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088702729460953718.post-50570692103064614282009-03-01T16:53:00.000-04:002009-03-01T16:53:00.000-04:00Wonderful review!

It is about death, too, and she talks about wondering what was going to happen next (Dewey does). It was a bit weird, but also fitting... I have yet to read Frances Itani, but I plan to one of these days!Kailanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136262232046813471noreply@blogger.com
