Just saw Book of a Thousand Days at B&N on Friday and it looks good too.

She was indeed gracious, and did sign an individualized (and much cherished) message in my daughter's copy of Goose Girl. I'm excited to read Book of a Thousand Days. My daughter-in-law's parents served their mission in Mongolia when Shannon's parents were serving there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5414256230745031071.post-89336706823871662552007-11-10T16:51:00.000-08:002007-11-10T16:51:00.000-08:00I saw SH at the Salt Lake Book Festival last year ...I saw SH at the Salt Lake Book Festival last year and loved her. She is so funny. I probably liked Austenland the least of her books, I still really liked it a lot. She draws such great pictures with her words. Haven't read Thousand Days yet, but will soon.
