    I enjoyed I Found You last year when it came out here. Quite a mix up! I enjoyed Robyn Carr's book and I look forward at some time to Kristin W H's book as have enjoyed her others. Well done with the marathon.

    I really enjoyed The Red Hunter too – one of my favourite books of last month, here's to a good April.
