I must tell you tho, I'm going to have to send up the white flag soon. Every time I visit your blog, my TBR pile grows. At least, now that we're 'retired military' we at least don't have to pack up all the books and tote them around the world anymore.<br /><br />Thanks for always giving us great reading ideas.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15164739473838041694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-24941042867597046362010-04-29T11:23:04.083-05:002010-04-29T11:23:04.083-05:00Love a great mystery and your review has peeked my...Love a great mystery and your review has peeked my interest in Sara's book.

And since Elizabeth asked...the setting is a fictionalized version of Warner Robins GA. We were stationed there for about four years.Sarahttp://www.SaraRosett.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-76762955709900703252010-04-29T07:46:24.273-05:002010-04-29T07:46:24.273-05:00Yes, Kay, Sara Rosett is a military wife. And, he...Yes, Kay, Sara Rosett is a military wife. And, her character deals with the military, moves, and her children. It's what I appreciate about the series. Her character, Ellie, doesn't forget she has children and a husband for half the book so she can solve a mystery. The family is integral to the plot, and she's as careful as she can be because of her family.Lesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946133849271512083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-65578826723419264622010-04-29T07:41:34.319-05:002010-04-29T07:41:34.319-05:00I think this is a very fun series.

This series is a good "mom" one with the twist of dealing with the military and moves and such. I think that the author is well versed in all these things because she is a military wife herself, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-62342631516480401902010-04-29T07:30:10.758-05:002010-04-29T07:30:10.758-05:00Elizabeth,
