As you can see, I can’t say enough about this book and the series.  Everything about this book and series calls to me.  I highly recommend this series.  I want to say more, but don’t want to ruin it for those who have yet to read it.

Below is a short recap of my history with Max.  It’s silly and pretentious,but I thought you might have a laugh over it!

        Last summer I found this one vibrant book on the shelf and took it home.  It was the beginning of a summer love affair.  His name was Max, and I haven’t been the same since.   I stalked the book shelves for more of this elusive creature. I waited with a tightly reigned desire for him to make another summer appearance late in July. Oh, the joy of having him all to myself was indescribable!  July had never been sweeter, but, alas, it all came to an end, Max belonged to  another. As difficult as it was, I understood.  His promises of seeing me the following July were sincere and heartfelt.   Even though I knew I’d never be the same again, I embraced the thought of a cold and lonely year without him.
      As this summer began I was giddy with just the thought or mention of him.   I didn’t know if I was going to be able to stand the wait.  He was so near, yet so far away.  If I could have traveled through time, he would have been mine sooner.   On the day of his arrival on my doorstep, I was inconsolable.   I was ecstatic, I kissed him, caressed him and ran around the house with him in my arms.  I had waited all year for this moment and nothing was going to stop me from being with him.  
    Sadly our time side by side came to an end.  We had such a short time together, but it was one of the most cherished moments of the year.  I hung on to his every word, I smiled at his antics, and shared in all his emotions. I found myself trying to preserve everything to memory, for when he would no longer be with me.  As we said our good-byes, he promised he would visit again, but we both knew it would never be the same.


* Special thanks to Nancy Gideon!  Your books bring me joy!
