Dangerous Neighbors: The first blog review
Monday, August 2, 2010
"Don't you just love being compared to classic authors? Kate Chopin, anyone?"
That was the email from a certain Nicole, and, confused, I clicked on the link. And there it was, the first blog review of Dangerous Neighbors, by clumzbella of the rich and enriching site, Novel Novice. Novel Novice is a blog created by middle school literature teacher Tiffany Truitt and friends to "help foster a passion and life-long love of reading among today's youth."
I have always loved Kate Chopin's The Awakening. I am more than honored by the comparison. In fact, I think I may just re-read that book this week; how, now, could I resist?

The Awakening is one of my favorite books! Even MORE excited for this - if that's possible.
What a wonderful comparison...congrats!
How wonderful!
just read this in that review :
Both have female leads searching for something, but while one ultimately gives up hope, the other clings to it.
I don't like the ending of Awakening - but your book promises to be different - so I think I will like it better :)
wow, that's some comparison! Congratulations!
I've been carrying Dangerous Neighbors around with me for two weeks hoping to find some quiet time to start it! I'm really looking forward to reading it even more now!
What a lovely review! I love Kate Chopin. Yes, I find your writing to be very hopeful, Beth. One of my favorite things about you.
