Irene Wilde, you modest lass you!

I appreciate the compliments about my review, but you do yourself a disservice with your denigrating self-assessment.

I love this sentence: "We all plunge ourselves into the thorns hoping to find a rose."
Very aptly spoken, Ms. Wilde. I suspect that many of us are attracted to the deceptive fragrance of the rose...not knowing that it can oft-times be as deadly a blossom as some of those flowers in Rappuccini's Garden.
Thanks once again for your generous words.
