Just that word strikes fear into the hearts of most writers. It’s like you’ve posted a picture of your first born child and allowed anyone to throw darts at that sweet, precious face. Whenever reviews come in for a book, I hold my breath. There’s a moment of stark fear. Then I take the plunge into the words written about my baby, my manuscript, my book. This is such a subjective business and I know there is no way to please everyone. So when reviews and quotes come from authors I highly respect, then I am not only delighted (and relieved!) but soar. Here’s one I received yesterday:
“Brilliant! Charming! I absolutely adored it! With memorable characters, Elvis Takes a Back Seat is an emotional journey well worth taking. I laughed, I cried, I sighed in contentment. Leanna Ellis is a gifted writer and a must-read.”
