It was kind of like when I read one of those neo-romance novels in which the heroine is good at cooking so she opens a restaurant or a bakery and everyone loves it and the people who work there become her extended family and she loses fifty pounds from eating her own cupcakes.<br />Reading about this woman who is so successful as an adjunct professor that her students become like her family and one even wants to sleep with her reduced me to tears. Because it was a crappy job, but I don't even have that anymore, and when I did it wasn't like that.<br /><br />My reaction has little to do with the book. It was an interesting mystery.Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01374498643286099244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7851614.post-47524625914560106382011-02-10T12:52:24.842-05:002011-02-10T12:52:24.842-05:00I pretty much choose a book the same way except . ...I pretty much choose a book the same way except . . . .
