I think I may have frightened her a tad with my over-the-top enthusiasm for her writing. I've looked forward to each letter as it came out and was re-reading Y when I heard the news of her passing. <br /><br />Such a lovely tribute -- thank you for sharing it.Peggy Rothschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14265570251802635683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-89575023292210316432018-01-05T10:04:25.059-05:002018-01-05T10:04:25.059-05:00Kinsey is so real to me...where she lives, her off...Kinsey is so real to me...where she lives, her office, her car, the neighborhood bar and restaurant where she eats dinner.

They both added a delightful element to my reading (and that means my life, too). <br /><br />We also name our cars. I have to admit, we also had a birthday party for our 1986 GMC Jimmy when he turned 30. I often refer to Jimmy as my son's older brother since Jimmy is one year older than he is. Yes--totally weird, but that's the way it is. <br /><br />I sure wish Sue had lived longer. Her books are treasures. I will get Kinsey and Me this morning.E. B.
