Oh yeah...I know. If I liked him, I'd be "forced" into a series with MANY books!! <BR/><BR/>Carrie - I was the same way. I've read so many Salon's I can't believe I haven't joined sooner. This Charming Man was very good. <BR/><BR/>Tanabata - I liked Rebecca, but I loved My Cousin Rachel. It was fantastic! So far, so good with this one. I do love a good Goth novel!Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05055676171075203563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5179077428618811016.post-47406700016624443622008-07-13T22:37:00.000-06:002008-07-13T22:37:00.000-06:00A bit of gothic sounds like fun.
