I'll only read a current novel if I get several good reviews from trusted friends. By the way, I found your blog beacause I picked up Madame Bovary at the Whitney Book Corner, the used book store that benefits the local library in Schenectady. I found the name Barbara Backus in the front of my new book. I couldn't help but google the previous owner. If it was yours, thanks for passing it on. I've been meaning to read Madame Bovary since college, I'm 35 now so it's time to get to it.<br />By the way, great blog!<br />Thanks, LisaLisa Stevensnoreply@blogger.com
