Anyone read this book yet? Ill tell ya, so far this has be a great book! I haven't laughed like this by reading a book in a long time, one page in particular is page 78 when Joe Jutras is talking to Pap(Dick Wallace). That page made me bust a gut laughing! Susan Warren did a excellent job writing this book.

It was a fun book. I even donated a copy to my library. Dick calls Tremor because he had a disease he needed help getting rid of and the meetings in the shack. Send Susan an email telling her what you thought. She has a website you can find through Google.

I read it and it was good, not there is a lot to compare with in it's market. Good idea on donating the book to a local library I might look into that.

I don't know if you know this or not, but Pap and Ron randomly hid 10 1068 seeds in the books, so far I've heard of 3 being found, So if it's not in the book you have, maybe you should pick up a few more.

Great book, read cover to cover in two nights. I couldn't put it down. Anyone who hasn't read it needs to pick it up ASAP.
