BIG, BIG thanks to those who have already done this!

I got my first book blogger review this morning, from Dominique over at "Diary of a Reader."

TWE isn't a perfect novel by any stretch of the imagination, but I feel so SEEN by this review. She got it. 100% understood what I was doing and *how* I was doing it.

ngl, I got tears in my eyes. What a feeling.
