Thank you Louise for the link to the pix gallery. My imagination did not do justice to any of the characters, lord help me!
Thanks for the warm welcome Leslie. I'm delvalmom at EJ/LJ & DC but for some reason used a different user name when I signed up here. Not sure what I was thinking.
Anyway, looking forward to more good reading. Thank you again.

Hi Fran - nice to meet you and it's great to have you here! :) I'm a re-re-re-re-reader myself, but there's really no such thing as being late to the party. These stories are addictive, aren't they?
I like your comment about the role that Ellery's back injury plays in the story - very insightful and so true. Underneath all the bravado and cockiness, Ellery is a scared little boy looking for true love. And, yeah, I want to hug Colson, too. And be prepared to get very attached to many of the fringe characters - many of whom don't remain out on the fringes for very long! As for the characters getting more complex - well.........just wait! :laugh:
You're in for a great ride that just keeps getting better and better.

Hi Marie,
Nice to meet you too! I think I need a re-read of "Taking Chances" already because I devoured it rather quickly & probably need a slower look at it.
I've read Louise's summaries for the other books in the chronicles & they all sound so great, but I will have to be patient & read them as they are revised. :-\
It's all good though. I'm sure we'll be chatting again soon!

I made my first post at Bettermost on this thread on December 4, 2006, so I thought it only fitting that I make my 1,000th post here, too. :) (and thanks to Marleen for bringing my attention to the fact that I was at 999!)
Thanks for starting this thread, Leslie! And, of course, my heartfelt thanks to you, Louise, for the enjoyment you've given me - and continue to give me - with your stories. You are one-of-a-kind - and I mean that in the best way possible.
