At first I was thrilled, I mean, weren’t we all asking for years, why oh why did she never write another book? But then an instant later, I wasn’t so sure. Could it possibly be as good or would I feel let down? And what’s with the title? They couldn’t come up with a better one? But I guess we’ll all read it all the same. You just have to.

I refrain from expecting another TKAM – impossible I would say – but will, I am certain, enjoy reading it. It’s nice to see you here, my old friend, and I hope always that our paths will cross again. I have an autographed copy of TKAM that I could show you if you would care to see it. A client gave it to me because we had a long estate full of battles and she said I kept quoting the book.

Best,
Beth
