I do like it when authors write as if it's a stream of consciousness, it's always a hypnotic way of writing and reading. Will definitely have to give this a go. Thanks for the recommendation Tracy!

The blurb and several of the things you said have me doubting. <br /><br />I do like a pretty book in looks and feel, though.
