Re: JCO: RE: Missing Mom

I've read it, too, as the galleys are out.  The book comes out Oct. 4, so no one will have to wait too very long.  --Angie

Re: JCO: RE: Missing Mom

No, last Friday's messaging about Missing Mom was the first I'd heard of the
novel. Haven't seen hide nor hair of it.

Re: JCO: RE: Missing Mom

Hi, Christa.
We Tone Cluster participants are all very careful about not revealing plot
elements, but it sounds like the interview cited here the other day did give
away some of it.

<< Cyrano, I forget that there are professional book reviewers here----I of
course understand Randy's close relationship, both personal and professional

with JCO, but feel most of the rest of us are not at that level....

At any rate, for those of us who have to get the book the regular way,
perhaps some of the rest of you who are discussing it could put the
"Spoiler" note
in your topic-----that's very helpful so the groundlings don't get the
ending revealed before we've had a chance to read it

Re: JCO: RE: Missing Mom

I've read it, but will withhold my opinions until after it's published.
