It's the latest book thing. I can barely remember PRIVATE ARRANGEMENTS but I remember all the fear and panic and more fear and more panic of writing DELICIOUS. 16 freaking months of it. Does make me more motivated to wrestle the current manuscript into shape. DELICIOUS making the Library Journal list totally had me rolling on the floor in happiness.

It was still a big deal to me. So congrats to all the writers listed!
